Hey Francesco and Michal,
first of all, thanks for taking a look! I havent had this code reviewed
at my end, so im happy to see you doing it!
But please dont mix up topics like that. Im not talking about pdfmm and
its refactored code. It is good that you check pdfmm for this bug too,
but i am confused now about what code and discussions you guys actually
have (topic backwards search). Are you talking podofo, are you talking
pdfmm? Are you in general talking about backwards searches in the
codebase? And please answer "the list" and not "answer all" i have all
of your mails twice now... its very confusing for me.
One bug in one thread at a time please :-)
Francesco: Yes PoDoFo crashes when loading my provided file (you can
also try to open it with podofobrowser, it also crashes with the error
that the 'trailer' is not found).
Michal: You are correct in assuming that the word 'trailer' in the
comments would be a problem, i didnt think about that... i also dont
know off the top of my head how to fix this easily. I havent looked at
pdfmm's implementation but if that doesnt crash (according to Francesco)
maybe PoDoFo should be changed to that.
"What if xref itself is between trailer and startxref?": if im not
misunderstanding it this should be prohibited according to pdf spec
Version 1.7 section 7.5.5 "File trailer" (or my pdf spec is too old :-) )
Best Regards,
Dennis
