@@ -41,6 +41,26 @@ Output JSON v2 Remember typo: search for "Typo" In QPDFJob::doJSONEncrypt. +Remember to test interaction between generators and schemas. + +Should I have allowed array and object generators? Or maybe just +string generators for stream data? + +When switching to generators for output, it's going to be very +important not to break the logic around having things that look at all +objects going first. Right now, there are good tests for it -- if you +either comment out pushInheritedAttributesToPage or do something that +postpones serializing the objects from allObjects (or even getting +them), you get test failures either way. However, if we were to +blindly overwrite test files, we might accidentally lose this. We will +have to try to get most of the logic working before trying to use +generators. Or maybe we shouldn't use generators at all for the +objects and only use it for the stream data. Or maybe we can use +generators but write it out early by exposing the depth() parameter. +That might actually the safest way to do it. But that will be hard +with schemas. Another thing might be to not combine serializing with +other kinds of metadata. + Output JSON v2 will contain enough information to completely recreate a PDF file. In other words, qpdf will have full, bidirectional, lossless json serialization/deserialization of PDF. |
