Summary: Removing fields not possible
Key: PDFBOX-6179
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-6179
Project: PDFBox
Issue Type: Bug
Components: AcroForm
Affects Versions: 3.0.7 PDFBox
Reporter: Stefan Ziegler
Seems that fields can no longer be removed like this:
PDField field = acroForm.getField("XXXXX");
List<PDField> fields = acroForm.getFields();
fields.remove(field);
Internally, the field is never found. PDField has not equals method. getField
and getFields create new PDField instances and so equals fails in this case.
Shouldn't there be an equals method in PDField, that compares the underlying
COSObject?
