Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-2011:
-----------------------------------------
Philip, see also PDFBOX-2005: the Character to Name map made so much trouble
that I ended up deinstalling JDK8.
> Please extend base class "Encoding" with 2 methods to access global name2char
> and char2name maps

> Hi!
> It would be kind if you could extend the Encoding base class with the
> following 2 methods so that external access to the static maps is easier:
> public static Map <String, String> getCharacterToNameMap () {
> return Collections.unmodifiableMap (CHARACTER_TO_NAME);
> }
> public static Map <String, String> getNameToCharacterMap () {
> return Collections.unmodifiableMap (NAME_TO_CHARACTER);
> }
> Thanks, Philip
