Guillaume Bailleul commented on PDFBOX-1056:
--------------------------------------------
Dependency on itext is obsolete.
It was only used for test at the beginning of the project to check some weird
behaviours with pdfbox 0.8; we wanted not to generate and test PDF with the
same product.
I just built the project without this dependency, it worked. So it can be
removed.
Dependency isartor is an artefact we did containing the isartor test pdf/a.
The only class using it is a junit test :
org.apache.padaf.preflight.TestIsartorValidationFromClasspath
I think the good way is to remove the dependency and the junit test class.
I will propose a new version of the test, with a download of external resources
as it is done for some other stuffs in PDFBox generation.
What do you think of that ?
> Integration of a PDF/A validator in PDFBox
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: PDFBOX-1056
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1056
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Utilities
> Affects Versions: 1.5.0
> Reporter: Guillaume Bailleul
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: padaf-apache.tgz, pdfbox160.patch
>
>
> We (Atos Worldline) donate our PDF/A validator to the PDFBox project. This
> product is based on PDFBox and a javacc parser. Before this donation, the
> product was already distributed under Apache Licence 2. Its current name is
> padaf.
> Padaf complies the isartor test suite.
> This version depends on standard PDFBox 1.5.0 version. Only one test class
> does not compile with current HEAD (on 27 of june), all other test cases pass.
> Padaf is composed of 2 modules :
> * preflight : the validator
> * xmpbox : an other implementation of xmp parser and writer. We make that
> choice because we did not have the time to propose all necessary modification
> in jempbox.
> The attached tar ball contains :
> - sources of the 2 modules
> - junit tests for each one
> - a parent (that will soon disappear) already depending on pdfbox-parent
> These are SHA1 for each attached file
> b9bb323fa73e1416a8b282fe2a687cebf1ac2145 padaf-apache.tgz
