2015-03-24Rework handling of PDF names for speed and memory.Robin Watts
Currently, every PDF name is allocated in a pdf_obj structure, and comparisons are done using strcmp. Given that we can predict most of the PDF names we'll use in a given file, this seems wasteful. The pdf_obj type is opaque outside the pdf-object.c file, so we can abuse it slightly without anyone outside knowing. We collect a sorted list of names used in PDF (resources/pdf/names.txt), and we add a utility (namedump) that preprocesses this into 2 header files. The first (include/mupdf/pdf/pdf-names-table.h, included as part of include/mupdf/pdf/object.h), defines a set of "PDF_NAME_xxxx" entries. These are pdf_obj *'s that callers can use to mean "A PDF object that means literal name 'xxxx'" The second (source/pdf/pdf-name-impl.h) is a C array of names. We therefore update the code so that rather than passing "xxxx" to functions (such as pdf_dict_gets(...)) we now pass PDF_NAME_xxxx (to pdf_dict_get(...)). This is a fairly natural (if widespread) change. The pdf_dict_getp (and sibling) functions that take a path (e.g. "foo/bar/baz") are therefore supplemented with equivalents that take a list (pdf_dict_getl(... , PDF_NAME_foo, PDF_NAME_bar, PDF_NAME_baz, NULL)). The actual implementation of this relies on the fact that small pointer values are never valid values. For a given pdf_obj *p, if NULL < (intptr_t)p < PDF_NAME__LIMIT then p is a literal entry in the name table. This enables us to do fast pointer compares and to skip expensive strcmps. Also, bring "null", "true" and "false" into the same style as PDF names. Rather than using full pdf_obj structures for null/true/false, use special pointer values just above the PDF_NAME_ table. This saves memory and makes comparisons easier.
2015-02-17Add ctx parameter and remove embedded contexts for API regularity.Tor Andersson
Purge several embedded contexts: Remove embedded context in fz_output. Remove embedded context in fz_stream. Remove embedded context in fz_device. Remove fz_rebind_stream (since it is no longer necessary). Remove embedded context in svg_device. Remove embedded context in XML parser. Add ctx argument to fz_document functions. Remove embedded context in fz_document. Remove embedded context in pdf_document. Remove embedded context in pdf_obj. Make fz_page independent of fz_document in the interface. We shouldn't need to pass the document to all functions handling a page. If a page is tied to the source document, it's redundant; otherwise it's just pointless. Fix reference counting oddity in fz_new_image_from_pixmap.
2014-03-25Break dependencies on pdf-form.c and pdf-js.cTor Andersson
Split functions out of pdf-form.c that shouldn't be there, and make javascript initialization explicit.
2014-02-14Add function for creating form fields (widgets)Paul Gardiner
This feature is being implemented mostly for the purpose of permitting the addition to a page of invisible signatures. Also change pdf_create_annot to make freshly created annotations printable by default.
2013-06-27Bug 694382: Fix problems arising from recent pdf_obj changes.Robin Watts
Thanks to zeniko for spotting these problems. When we close a document, purge the glyph cache to ensure that no type3 glyphs hang around with pointers to pdf_obj's that are now gone. Pass doc to pdf_new_obj_from_str rather than NULL. We believe that the reason this needed to be NULL is no longer valid. Also, revert to using an int for ref counts. In a quick test of our regression suite we only found 2 files that ever made a refcount > 256 (and they never got larger than 768), but the potential is there for issues. Reverting to an int until we can think of a better idea.
