Hello,

I'm currently migrating from PDFBox 1.8.2 to 2.0.0. In the former version, I
used the following code to check for the existence of a PDF form field:


----

PDField pdField = pdAcroForm.getField( pdFieldName );

if ( pdField == null || ( pdField instanceof PDUnknownField ) )
        throw new RuntimeException( "Failed to fill PDF field: Given field
'" + pdFieldName + "' is unknown" );

----


After migrating to PDFBox 2.0.0, the class "PDUnknownField" is no longer
available.

I can't find information about "PDUnknownField" the migration guide
(https://pdfbox.apache.org/2.0/migration.html).


Has the class been removed without any replacement, so I just check for
"pdField == null" in my example above, or is there a replacement for
"PDUnknownField" I may have missed?


Thanks a lot for your help!


Kind regards,
Timo Rumland
