Maruan Sahyoun commented on PDFBOX-2516:
----------------------------------------
[~lehmi] As part of PDFBOX-2261 e.g. when setting the value for a PDRadioButton
a RuntimeException is thrown if the value is not a COSName. Could that be
changed to
- either using an IOException so it’s easier to handle and be inline with most
of the exceptions we throw
- be implemented differently so setValue is not a method of the parent class
but child classes implement them individually so type constraints could be
reflected in the method parameters so the method signature would provide a hint?
WDYT?
> Further align AcroForms and Fields PDModel with PDF specification

> The PDModel for AcroForms and the fields being part of it
> (o.a.p.pdmodel.interactive.form) needs to be enhanced. Sample issues:
> - RadioButton and Checkbox don’t support DV entries although they should
> - inheritable attributes only support inheritance either form their parent
> or the root of the AcroForms model which is not inline with the specification
