Version: 1.5 (using KDE 3.5.8) Installed from: Unspecified Linux OS: Linux as far as I can see there is no possibility to open a file readonly with taglib. this affects tracker/beagle/strigi/any other indexer that uses inotify, because these reindex the file after reading the tag with taglib.
*** Bug 269395 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Hi, Any updates on this issue? This really creates problems for components that use inotify. They pick up spurious changes, when other components using Taglib ready the media files just to get the metadata. Any chance this can be fixed?
Yes! The inotify situation I also noticed. Opening a file for write signals apps that want to know this. NO APP should EVER open a file for writing UNLESS it is truly for writing. Scanning tags is not that operation.
Wow. After 3.5 years this bug gets 2 comments on one evening but still is not confirmed. I think I gave up on this topic 3.2 years ago.
I notice that FileStream in master, does sport a openReadOnly attribute, but it is not being propagated up to the public API. Is this to preserve binary compatibility? Does this mean having to wait till 2.0?
