Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-3241:
-----------------------------------------
[~abyss] I committed a more simpler change. Please give feedback whether this
is helpful, or whether you prefer that I return the original version as a float.
> return original PDF Header

> Yes, I know, that the version in catalog shall be used to determine version
> and therefore the version COSDocument#getVersion() method result is expected
> to reflect that. But I ask the header string. And it's result differs from
> the actual header string in the file after PDFParser finishes its job.
> Please, bear also in mind that Extensions Dictionary (see ISO 32000-1
> chapter 7.12) validation should consider the values both in document catalog
> and header:
> "The value of BaseVersion, when treated as a version number, shall be less
> than or equal to the PDF version, both in the document header (see 7.5.2,
> "File Header") and the catalog Version key value, if present."
> As it says "both", that means BaseVersion may not exceed the value neither
> in header nor in catalog, therefore we need to validate that.

> my answer:
> How about something like this:
> {code}
> private String originalHeaderString = null;
> public void setOriginalHeaderString(String header)
> {
> if (originalHeaderString != null)
> throw bad state exception blah blah
> originalHeaderString = header;
> }
> public String getOriginalHeaderString()
> {
> return originalHeaderString ;
> }
> {code}
> The setter should be called only once by parseHeader().
> This was accepted, so I'll implement it (for 1.8 only)
