4.2.0 was binary incompatible in spite of there being no deletions or
changes to any public methods. As such, we have to bump the ABI and
are fixing some API breakage while we're at it.
Previous 4.3.0 target is now 5.1.0.
Space rather than newline after xref, missing /ID in trailer for
encrypted file. This enables qpdf to handle some files that xpdf can
handle. Adobe reader can't necessarily handle them.
Rework QPDFWriter to always track old object IDs and QPDFObjGen
instead of int, thus not discarding the generation number. Switch to
QPDF::getCompressibleObjGen() to properly handle the case of an old
object eligible for compression that has a generation of other than
zero.
Read and write support is implemented for /V=5 with /R=5 as well as
/R=6. /R=5 is the deprecated encryption method used by Acrobat IX.
/R=6 is the encryption method used by PDF 2.0 from ISO 32000-2.
Allowing users to subclass InputSource and Pipeline to read and write
from/to arbitrary sources provides the maximum flexibility for users
who want to read and write from other than files or memory.
Move object parsing code from QPDF to QPDFObjectHandle and
parameterize the parts of it that are specific to a QPDF object.
Provide a version that can't handle indirect objects and that can be
called on an arbitrary string.
A side effect of this change is that the offset used when reporting
invalid stream length has changed, but since the new value seems like
a better value than the old one, the test suite has been updated
rather than making the code backward compatible. This only effects
the offset reported for invalid streams that lack /Length or have an
invalid /Length key.
Updated some test code and exmaples to use QPDFObjectHandle::parse.
Supporting changes include adding a BufferInputSource constructor that
takes a string.
QPDFObjectHandle::{new,is,assert}Reserved, QPDF::replaceReserved
provide a mechanism to add objects to a PDF file when there are
circular references. This is a prerequisite to copying objects from
one PDF to another.
Also updated pdf_from_scratch test driver to use the new factories,
and made some cosmetic improvements and documentation updates for the
emptyPDF() method.
Significantly improve the code's use of off_t for file offsets, size_t
for memory sizes, and integer types in cases where there has to be
compatibility with external interfaces. Rework sections of the code
that would have prevented qpdf from working on files larger than 2 (or
maybe 4) GB in size.
