File Upload - Save original Meta Data

Flow
1

Hi,

i implemented kind of picture management system. How can i save the Original Picture Meta information like creation time?
The problem is, after uploading the picture i want to push the meta information to from the file into the database but the creation Time / Date then is the date i uploaded the picture not the date it was created.

Did you read e.g. the correct meta data, like for example JpegImageMetadata instead of the file meta data? Vaadin doesn’t interfere with those.

I user BasicFileAttribute read from File and its the right value but after the Upload so its the current Date

To be expected

Those attributes are not part of the file, but part of the filesystem - therefore uploading a file doesn’t transfer those values.
