The Site With the Lamp

May 10, 2006

Found an article at http://www.math.ntnu.no/~berland/nef/ that explain how you can automate your workflow when shooting Raw with your Nikon D70S.

Part of the process includes using neftags2jpg but I had trouble compiling that.

neftags2jpg.cc: In function ‘void buildDatum(int, int, int, int, Exiv2::IfdId)’:
neftags2jpg.cc:143: error: invalid conversion from ‘const int’ to ‘Exiv2::ByteOrder’
neftags2jpg.cc:143: error:   initializing argument 4 of ‘int Exiv2::Ifd::read(const Exiv2::byte*, long int, long int, Exiv2::ByteOrder, long int)’
gmake: *** [neftags2jpg.o] Error 1

quick and dirty fix, remove the line alltogether :-) it's a part of some assertion. Still the compiled program wouldn't run.

./neftags2jpg: error while loading shared libraries: libexiv2-0.9.1.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

exiv2, which is a requirement for neftags2jpg seems to have created the wrong symlic. neftags is looking for it in /usr/lib instead of /usr/local/lib fixed that with a call to good old ln

The next steps went smoothly, until I tried to run the prenef script from the above site. What do I get? a seg fault. It never pays to cheat. I have to take a closer look at why this will not compile properly on my FC installation
