ClassNotFoundException: com.sun.media.imageio.plugins.tiff.BaselineTIFFTagSet

[THausherr]

I tried using this library for a PDFBox build test, and got this:

java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.sun.media.imageio.plugins.tiff.BaselineTIFFTagSet

See the source code here:
https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/pdfbox/trunk/tools/src/main/java/org/apache/pdfbox/tools/imageio/TIFFUtil.java?view=markup&sortby=date

The cause is probably this:

ifd.setAttribute("tagSets", "com.sun.media.imageio.plugins.tiff.BaselineTIFFTagSet");

If I change the second parameter to "com.github.jaiimageio.plugins.tiff.BaselineTIFFTagSet" our tests pass. However we can't just change that line to set the github path, because we don't know which jars the users will use (we can't distribute jai_imageio).

This jai-imageio-core fork is created specifically to be distributable by open source projects, and is compatible with both GPL3 and Apache License 2.0. (that his however not true for the jai-imageio-jpeg2000 module)

However I agree that this backward compatibility should be there, so I've merged your PR #20. Thanks!
