Hi there!

I was glancing through the code to PDFBox 3.0.1 to better grok PDF
form
fields/widgets and the hierarchical way they are organized and I ran
across something that might be a bug in the code.

Or... it might just be my lack of understanding of how PDF default
values work in non-terminal field objects.  At the very least I found
it
surprising and different from the code in other types of PDField
subclasses.  So I decided to bring it up here on the dev mailing
list.

In the PDNonTerminalField.java file, the setDefaultValue() method
logic
looks like this [1]:

     getCOSObject().setItem(COSName.V, value);

It appears to set the value of the COSName.V item...  while the
getDefaultValue() method in the class (and the setDefaultValue()
methods
in other PDField subclasses that I checked) use the COSName.DV value
as
expected.

Is this a bug, or is this intentional?

that's a bug - could you file a bug report for that?

Thank you for your time,
