Hi all,
I've read these two sentences in the PDF reference:
* "Any object in a PDF file may be labeled as an indirect object"
* "The object can be referred to from elsewhere in the file by an
indirect reference"
I undestand it means that these two contents would be equivalent:
3 0 obj << /Type /Pages /Count 15 /Kids [5 0 R] >> endobj
and
3 0 obj << /Type /Pages /Count 4 0 R /Kids 5 0 R >> endobj
4 0 obj 15 endobj
But when I look into PdfDictionary class, it contains GetKeyAsXXX methods,
for instance GetKeyAsLong, that don't check if the key is a reference:
long long PdfDictionary::GetKeyAsLong( const PdfName & key, long
long lDefault ) const
{
const PdfObject* pObject = GetKey( key );
if( pObject && pObject->GetDataType() ==
ePdfDataType_Number )
{
return pObject->GetNumber();
}
return lDefault;
}
I think it should also check if pObject is a reference.
If it is a reference it should get the reference, check if it is a number
and read it.
Am I right or am I missing something ?
Thanks in advance.------------------------------------------------------------------------------
