Maruan Sahyoun commented on PDFBOX-2516:
----------------------------------------
for some time the API will change a lot towards this target
- support additional field attributes in the PDModel
- properly support inheritable attributes
- work towards the PDModel using Java built in types vs COSBase in order to
shield the user from PDF details especially for setting and getting values
- enhance the test coverage for AcroForms
> Further align AcroForms and Fields PDModel with PDF specification

> Key: PDFBOX-2516
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-2516
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: AcroForm
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0
> Reporter: Maruan Sahyoun
> Assignee: Maruan Sahyoun
>
> The PDModel for AcroForms and the fields being part of it
> (o.a.p.pdmodel.interactive.form) needs to be enhanced. Sample issues:
> - RadioButton and Checkbox don’t support DV entries although they should
> - inheritable attributes only support inheritance either form their parent
> or the root of the AcroForms model which is not inline with the specification
