The executables that libtool built invoked the underlying binary with
an "lt-" prefix. The code contained numerous workarounds for testing,
which can now be removed.
This comment expands all tabs using an 8-character tab-width. You
should ignore this commit when using git blame or use git blame -w.
In the early days, I used to use tabs where possible for indentation,
since emacs did this automatically. In recent years, I have switched
to only using spaces, which means qpdf source code has been a mixture
of spaces and tabs. I have avoided cleaning this up because of not
wanting gratuitous whitespaces change to cloud the output of git
blame, but I changed my mind after discussing with users who view qpdf
source code in editors/IDEs that have other tab widths by default and
in light of the fact that I am planning to start applying automatic
code formatting soon.
The previous commits have removed all references to memory from
QPDFArgParser from QPDFJob. This commit removes the constraint that
QPDFArgParser remain in scope. This is a prerequisite to allowing JSON
as an alternative way to initialize QPDFJob and to initialize it
directly using a public API.
Move ArgParser from qpdf.cc into QPDFJob.cc. It still works with
millions of public member variables, but now qpdf.cc is minimal and
just calls stable library functions.
Remove all calls to exit() from QPDFJob. Handle code that runs in
verbose mode to enable it to make use of output streams and message
prefix (whoami) from QPDFJob. This removes temporarily duplicated exit
code logic and most access to whoami/std::cout outside of QPDFJob
proper.
Move most of the methods called from qpdf.cc after argument parsing
into QPDFJob. In this increment, enough QPDFJob API has been added to
handle the branch of QPDFJob::run() that creates output with an
appropriate division between qpdf.cc and QPDFJob.
There are temporary bits of code to enable everything to compile and
pass the test suite, including some duplication and hard-coded values.
When adding a QPDFObjectHandle to an array or dictionary, if possible,
check if the new object belongs to the same QPDF. This makes it much
easier to find incorrect code than waiting for the situation to be
detected when the file is written.
This takes pages from the file in groups of n with default = 1. This
partially fixes the enhancement in issue #505 but doesn't implement
the entire suggestion.
