Unfortunately adding virtual methods to the base classes is not binary
compatible, so there are parts of the patch that I can incorporate, but some
of them will have to wait until the next major version (2.0).
Two other notes:
- Generally it's preferable to send patches to the list rather than my
personal address so that other people involved in / using TagLib can see and
potentially review them
- If you're generating patches, it's usually better to work with the TagLib
version from Subversion since that's more up to date. There are instructions
on the TagLib homepage for how to check out the subversion sources.
Thanks for the patch!
Cheers,
-Scott
