Maruan Sahyoun commented on PDFBOX-4723:
----------------------------------------
I'll look into that. OTOH isn't the purpose of equals that two resolve to true
if two distinct objects share the same 'content'. With the changes done this is
now true for COSDictionary and COSArray (not taking potential implementation
flaws into account).
> Add equals() and hashCode() to PDAnnotation and COSDictionary

> Key: PDFBOX-4723
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4723
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: PDModel
> Affects Versions: 2.0.18
> Reporter: Maruan Sahyoun
> Assignee: Maruan Sahyoun
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 2.0.19, 3.0.0 PDFBox
>
>
> In order to proper support removeAll/retainAll for COSArrayList we need to
> detect if entries are in fact duplicates of others. This currently fails as
> even though one might add the same instance of an annotation object multiple
> times to setAnnotations getting the annotations will have individual
> instances. See the discussion at PDFBOX-4669.
> In order to proper support removal we need to be able to detect equality
> where an object is equal if the underlying COSDictionary has the same entries.
