"exif.c" is a simple implementation to access the Exif segment in a JPEG file.
It easily enables you to get the value of the IFD tag field with such code:

  TagNodeInfo *tag = getTagInfo(ifdArray, IFD_EXIF, TAG_DateTimeOriginal);
  printf("DateTimeOriginal = [%s]\n", tag->byteData);

  -> DateTimeOriginal = [2013:09:01 09:49:00]

See "sample_main.c" and "exif.h" for details.

exif.c only uses standard C library functions. So, it will be usable in many environments. 
It has been tested in the following environments.

 - Windows XP 32bit + 32bit Visual C++
 - Windows 7 64bit + 64bit Visual C++
 - Redhat Linux 32bit + 32bit gcc
 - Mac OS X 64bit + 64bit gcc

building with gcc:
gcc -o exif sample_main.c exif.c

building with Microsoft Visual C++:
cl.exe /o exif sample_main.c exif.c

The following output is the result of the sample program.
