An indirect object reference to 0, 0 is invalid. If it appears in the
file or is parsed from a string, the parser catches it. This check
would only be useful for someone explicitly calling getObject with 0,
0, and that would trigger an error during resolve().
Replace operator== and operator!=, which were testing for the same
underlying object, with isSameObjectAs. This change was motivated by
the fact that pikepdf internally had its own operator== method for
QPDFObjectHandle that did structural comparison. I backed out qpdf's
operator== as a courtesy to pikepdf (in my own testing) but also
because I think people might naturally assume that operator== does a
structural comparison, and isSameObjectAs is clearer in its intent.
I decided that it's actually fine to copy a direct object to another
QPDF. Even if we eventually prevent a QPDFObject from having multiple
parents, this could happen if an object is moved.
When a QPDF is destroyed, changing indirect objects to direct nulls
makes them effectively disappear silently when they sneak into other
places. Instead, we should treat this as an error. Adding a destroyed
object type makes this possible.
The qpdf member was already sufficient. Removing this actually fixed a
few pre-existing issues around detecting foreign ownership and
allowing certain conditions to be warnings rather than exceptions.
* Just removing a header file would cause build errors with no hint as
to what happened. This way, people get a warning rather than error
for the life of qpdf 11, and the warning tells them what to do.
* This avoids build surprises resulting from having two versions of
QPDF headers installed at once. If you were building code out of a
checkout of qpdf but had an older version installed on your system,
if your code included <qpdf/QPDFObject.hh>, everything would work,
but then your code would break without QPDFObject.hh later.
A bug was fixed between qpdf 8.4.2 and 9.0.0 regarding this type of
file (see #305 and #311), but it was necessary to retest after some
major refactoring work at the lexical and parsing layers. This lays
the groundwork for including this in performance benchmarks and in the
qpdf test suite rather than having to keep a large,
non-redistributable file around.
20 arrays of 20K nulls is plenty for performance memory testing and
doesn't take too long to run. Compared to qpdf 8.4.2, in qpdf 11.0.0,
the file generated here uses 3% of the RAM and runs over 4 times
faster.
We need to know whether pushInheritedAttributesToPage or getAllPages
have been called when generating JSON output. When reading the JSON
back in, we have to call the same methods so that object numbers will
line up properly.
This includes the output PDF, streams from --show-object and
attachments from --save-attachment. This also enables --verbose and
--progress to work with saving to stdout.
* native UTF-8 strings
* names whose PDF and canonical syntax differ in both dictionary key
positions and other positions
For json, names are converted both as names and directly when used as
dictionary keys.
* Replace --create-from-json=file with --json-input, which causes the
regular input to be treated as json.
* Eliminate --to-json
* In --json=2, bring back "objects" and eliminate "objectinfo". Stream
data is never present.
* In --json-output=2, write "qpdf-v2" with "objects" and include
stream data.
There is one unexpected pass in this commit. This script was applied
to the files changed in this commit:

moddify -> modify. Also carefully spell checked all remaining keys by
splitting them into words and running a spell checker, not just
relying on visual proofreading. That was the only one.
This script was used on test data:
----------
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import json
import sys
import re
def json_dumps(data):
return json.dumps(data, ensure_ascii=False,
indent=2, separators=(',', ': '))
for filename in sys.argv[1:]:
with open(filename, 'r') as f:
data = json.loads(f.read())
if 'objectinfo' not in data:
continue
trailer = None
to_sort = []
for k, v in data['objectinfo'].items():
if k == 'trailer':
trailer = v
else:
m = re.match(r'^(\d+) \d+ R', k)
if m:
to_sort.append([int(m.group(1)), k, v])
newobjectinfo = {x[1]: x[2] for x in sorted(to_sort)}
if trailer is not None:
newobjectinfo['trailer'] = trailer
data['objectinfo'] = newobjectinfo
print(json_dumps(data))

The following script was used to adjust test data:

newobjects = {x[1]: x[2] for x in sorted(to_sort)}
if trailer is not None:
newobjects['trailer'] = trailer
data['objects'] = newobjects
print(json_dumps(data))

This commit just changes the order in which fields are written to the
json without changing their content. All the json files in the test
suite were modified with this script to ensure that we didn't get any
changes other than ordering.

Where not possible, use "auto" to get the iterator type.
Editorial note: I have avoid this change for a long time because of
not wanting to make gratuitous changes to version history, which can
obscure when certain changes were made, but with having recently
touched every single file to apply automatic code formatting and with
making several broad changes to the API, I decided it was time to take
the plunge and get rid of the older (pre-C++11) verbose iterator
syntax. The new code is just easier to read and understand, and in
many cases, it will be more effecient as fewer temporary copies are
being made.
m-holger, if you're reading, you can see that I've finally come
around. :-)
Prior to the cmake conversion, several private classes had methods
that were exported into the shared library so they could be tested
with libtests. With cmake, we build libtests using an object library,
so this is no longer necessary. The methods that are disappearing from
the ABI were never exposed through public headers, so no code should
be using them. Removal had to wait until the window for ABI-breaking
changes was open.
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.
Use get() and use_count() instead. Add #define
NO_POINTERHOLDER_DEPRECATION to remove deprecation markers for these
only.
This commit also removes all deprecated PointerHolder API calls from
qpdf's code except in PointerHolder's test suite, which must continue
to test the deprecated APIs.
