Stefan Ziegler updated PDFBOX-6179:
-----------------------------------
Description:
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 no 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?
