---------------------------------------
Summary: Limit overwrite warning to non empty files
Key: PDFBOX-5814
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-5814
Project: PDFBox
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Writing
Affects Versions: 3.0.2 PDFBox, 2.0.31
Reporter: Tilman Hausherr
Assignee: Tilman Hausherr
Fix For: 2.0.32, 3.0.3 PDFBox
As written by Anthony Brunellière on the dev mailing list:
{code:java}
The method PDDocument.save(..) (version 3.0.2) generates a warning if the
output file already exists :
{code:java}
public void save(File file, CompressParameters compressParameters) throws
IOException
{
if (file.exists())
{
LOG.warn(
"You are overwriting the existing file " + file.getName()
+ ", this will produce a corrupted file if you're
also reading from it");
}
{code}
I understand the disclaimer "Don't use the input file as target as this will
produce a corrupted file", but I'm in a context where an empty ouput file is
created just before for specific reasons.
Should this warning be limited to non-empty files?
