The downloads (both binary builds and source) are available here: http://www.exiv2.org/download.html You can't simply "drop in" the exiv2 v0.26 dll to replace v0.25. You will need to rebuild your application to run with v0.26

Hi,
thanks for your quick answer but I don`t understand you.
In 0.25 I used this two files: exiv2.exe and libexpat.dll.

Can I not download these two files directly?

Ah right. I understand. The v0.26 distribution provides many more builds. Download the MSVC builds: http://www.exiv2.org/builds/exiv2-0.26-msvc.tar.gz

I now distribute all the sample applications, builds for 32 and 64 bits and different version of Visual Studio (and Mac, Cygwin, Linux and MinGW builds).

When you unzip exiv2-0.26-msvc.tar.gz, the files you need are exiv2.exe exiv2.dll expat.dll and zlib.dll which are stored in dist\2005\Win32\dll\Release\bin

c:\temp\dist\2005\Win32\dll\Release\bin>mkdir c:\temp\foo
c:\temp\dist\2005\Win32\dll\Release\bin>copy *.dll c:\temp\foo
exiv2.dll
expat.dll
zlib.dll
        3 file(s) copied.
c:\temp\dist\2005\Win32\dll\Release\bin>copy exiv2.exe c:\temp\foo
        1 file(s) copied.
c:\temp\dist\2005\Win32\dll\Release\bin>cd \temp\foo

c:\temp\foo>exiv2.exe -vV | grep foo
executable=c:\temp\foo\exiv2.exe
library=c:\temp\foo\exiv2.dll
library=c:\temp\foo\zlib.dll
library=c:\temp\foo\expat.dll

I've done this for you and attach a zip of the 4 files. Thank You for using Exiv2. I'm happy to help if this doesn't work for you.
