org.apache.fontbox.encoding.getNameFromCharacter always throws exception
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: PDFBOX-714
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-714
Project: PDFBox
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: FontBox
Affects Versions: 1.1.0
Reporter: [email protected]
Priority: Minor
Findbugs reported an incorrect type conversion from a char to an object, upon
further investigation
This method references a private variable, CHARACTER_TO_NAME.
This private HashMap is never set by anyone, therefore this method will always
have a name == null and always throw an exception.
The class is only extended in 1 place, and that place makes no attempt to
override this method.
This method should be deleted from the class.
public String getNameFromCharacter( char c ) throws IOException
{
String name = CHARACTER_TO_NAME.get( c );
if( name == null )
{
throw new IOException( "No name for character '" + c + "'" );
}
return name;
}
