[Digikam-users] Tags in IPTC only flat

[Gilles Caulier]

digiKam tags paths are different than Tags names.

Tags paths are stored in a _dedicated_ "digiKam" XMP namespace. It's
only used in private if you prefer. This is why you don't see tags
paths in XMP editor...


But Exiv2 know this namespace :

http://www.exiv2.org/tags-xmp-digiKam.html

You can use it in other program for interoperability purpose....

> Example:
> Tags I selected in the list
> Family/Robert, 2-Gallery/Eastern2008
>
> IPTC Tags are:
> Family/Robert, Eastern2008, Robert
>
> XMP Tags are:
> Robert, Eastern2008
>
> In gwenview as external viewer
> I found under IPTC:
> Family/Robert, Eastern2008, Robert
>
> after a DB-sync, I tried several pictures.
> All old ones tagged with 0.9.4 and migrated to 0.10.0 (Migration made
> without any db, only over the metadata) have the flat and the structured
> version of a tag in IPTC and only flat in XMP.
>
> All new pictures tagged with 0.10.0:
> Have non consistant IPTC and only flat in XMP.
>
> I check the DB with the sqlitebrowser: All tags are consistant linked.

> I am running LibExiv2 0.18
