> Key: PDFBOX-1214
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1214
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Parsing
> Affects Versions: 1.6.0
> Reporter: Timo Boehme
> Assignee: Timo Boehme
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: 2012-01-23_PDFParserProtected.patch
>
>
> As a precondition of PDFBOX-1199 and other improvements implementing new ways
> of parsing PDF documents using existing code base it is necessary that
> subclasses of PDFParser can be created. While this is already possible with
> the current version accessing some needed methods is prohibited by the
> 'private' keyword. The attached patch changes this to 'protected'.
> If there are no objections against the patch I will commit it in the next
> days.
