Richard Martin updated PDFBOX-3723:
-----------------------------------
Maruan,
I tested with pdfbox-2.1.0-20170320.180628-811.jar. I hope that's what you
intended.
Good news, bad news.
Good news is that the fdf.values are no onger enclosed in COSString().
Bad news is that I now get an error on pdfField.setValue(fdfValue) ;
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
at
org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.form.AppearanceGeneratorHelper.setAppearanceValue(AppearanceGeneratorHelper.java:137)
at
org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.form.PDTextField.constructAppearances(PDTextField.java:263)

org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.form.PDTerminalField.applyChange(PDTerminalField.java:226)
at
org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.form.PDTextField.setValue(PDTextField.java:218)
at
org.apache.pdfbox.ALS3122FormFillV2.importXFDF(ALS3122FormFillV2.java:321)
at org.apache.pdfbox.ALS3122FormFillV2.main(ALS3122FormFillV2.java:110)
at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method)
In that, line 321 is the setValue line shown above.
I don't get that error with 2.0.4 or 2.0.5. I can provide test case
material but it's a bit more involved than before because I should provide
a PDF file to post against.
I'll stick with 2.0.5 with my/our workaround for now. My work is not yet
in production.
Thanks.
Dick

> Key: PDFBOX-3723
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3723
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: PDModel
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0, 2.0.4, 2.0.5
> Reporter: Maruan Sahyoun
> Assignee: Maruan Sahyoun
> Fix For: 2.0.6, 2.1.0
>
>
> For the 2.0.x releases {{FDFField.getValue()}} doesn't neither return the
> documented {{PDTextStream}} return type nor {{String}} for values of type
> {{COSString}} or {{COSStream}}. This has somewhat be masked by another issue
> fixed in PDFBOX-3596.
> As {{PDTextStream}} is no longer available we should return as {{String}}
> (which is inline with {{PDField}}) and adjust the javadoc accordingly.
