Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-2748: ----------------------------------------- PDFBOX-1183 isn't a critical bug. It is just annoying. I see PDFReader as an example, and a debugging tool for us. And as a debugging tool, I need the recent file feature - I am using it since it has been there to switch back and forth. I don't see PDFReader as a public API. It is a visual application, I doubt people would extend it. They build their own GUI for their application and will use concepts from PDFReader. Maybe they'll extend PageWrapper and PDFPagePanel. I don't mind having PDFReader private, final, both or whatever. Having the debugger and the reader in their own jar: sure. > Recent files in PDF reader > -------------------------- > > Key: PDFBOX-2748 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-2748 > Project: PDFBox > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Swing GUI > Affects Versions: 2.0.0 > Reporter: khyrul bashar > Priority: Minor > Labels: patch > Fix For: 2.0.0 > > Attachments: recentfiles_pdfreader.diff > > > A recently opened file list containing menu in pdf reader will be a nice > feature in PDF reader. > I've made a patch for this.
