---------------------------------------------------
Summary: Make PositionWrapper.getTextPosition public
Key: PDFBOX-1425
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1425
Project: PDFBox
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Daniel Bonniot de Ruisselet
Fix For: 1.8.0
Method PositionWrapper.getTextPosition() is currently protected. The problem is
that this limits the ability to extend/customize pdfbox.
For instance, suppose someone wants to override
PDFTextStripper.isParagraphSeparation(PositionWrapper position,
PositionWrapper lastPosition, PositionWrapper lastLineStartPosition, float
maxHeightForLine):
This is intended, since isParagraphSeparation is 'protected'. However, in the
subclass (which will be in a different package), it is forbidden to call
position.getTextPosition(), which severly limits what can be done.
Could you please make PositionWrapper.getTextPosition() public?
