Refactor IO interfaces + PATCH
------------------------------
Key: PDFBOX-1211
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1211
Project: PDFBox
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Utilities
Affects Versions: 1.6.0
Reporter: Timo Boehme
Priority: Minor
The new (more) conforming PDF parsers (PDFBOX-1000, PDFBOX-1199) have other
access requirements on the input data than the current parser. Depending on the
component (Lexer, Parser) a sequential read or random read is needed. In order
to support multiple kinds of sources the access should be defined via
interfaces which allows different implementations (files, streams, ...). Since
PDFBox already has a RandomAccess interface the most compatible solution is to
split it up into an interface hierarchy: RandomAccess extends RandomAccessRead
extends SequentialRead.
Attached are the new classes RandomAccessRead and SequentialRead as well as the
patch for RandomAccess.
