I had the same problem as Sandy and Bruno.
Technically, the protected os reference is defined in
com.lowagie.text. This should be visible within the
package and to subclasses. Therefore it should not be
visible to PdfBody, and this is consistent with the
error we receive. However when I try to illustrate
this concept with a simple example, it works as
(un)expected. I compiled with Sun javac 1.3.1 and
1.4.0 and have not been able to figure out the
difference.
Anyway, I had to patch PdfWriter to get it to work.
What I did:
1) Modify the super ctor call to wrap os in an
OutputStreamCounter.
2) Add this method to provide access to os and
conveniently cast the OutputStreamCounter:
/** for inner classes */
private OutputStreamCounter getOutputStreamCounter()
{
return (OutputStreamCounter)os;
}//end getOutputStreamCounter
3) Modify the various modified points in PdfBody.add*
methods' references from writer.os to
writer.getOutputStreamCounter().
