Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-2748:
-----------------------------------------
I like the idea (I think it came up as a discussion in the PDFDebugger issue) -
I use the reader a lot to test rendering, and it is useful to make it more
comfortable. Currently, it is very painful to use. The "recent files" feature
allows to quickly open a file that I have been working on. Without it, I need
to either copy the directory and the filename into a dos box, or to copy the
directory into the "Open" dialog.

> 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. A new package under org.apache.pdfbox.tools is
> created named util which contains the class RecentFiles so that this can be
> used in feature improvement of other GUI tools PDFBox provides.
> In RecentFiles class, file path string is saved in preference by converting
> and breaking them into byte array. To do That, I've followed this
> [post|http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/j-prefapi/] .
> I'm saying this to help PDFBox to make an informed decision concerning
> licences issues if there is any.
