This is required to be able to use it in the annotation display code,
where we now apply it to sanitize the filename of the FileAttachment
annotation. The PDF file from https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1230933 has shown that some PDF generators include the path of the file rather than the filename, which causes filenames with weird initial characters. PDF viewers handle this differently (for example Foxit Reader just replaces forward slashes with spaces), but we think it's better to only show the filename as intended.
Additionally we add unit tests for the `getFilenameFromUrl` helper
function.
The Chrome extension enforces that local files cannot be embedded in
non-local web pages. The previous check was too strict (because the
origin of a file:-URL is "null"), and prevented local PDF from being
viewed in local files).
This patch fixes that problem, by querying the actual tab URL via the
background page.
Steps to verify:
1. Create a HTML file: `<iframe src=test.pdf width=100% height=100%>`
2. Build and load the extension.
3. Allow file access to the extension at `chrome://extensions`
4. Open the HTML file from a file:// URL.
5. VERIFY: The extension should attempt to load the PDF file.
6. Now open the following (replace ID with the extension ID, which you
can find at `chrome://extensions`):
`data:text/html,<iframe src="chrome-extension://ID/file:///test.pdf">`
7. VERIFY: The next error should be displayed:
"Refused to load a local file in a non-local page for security reasons."
One of the patches in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1202902, specifically [`Mass replace toplevel 'let' with 'var' in preparation for global lexical scope. (rs=jorendorff)`](https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/380817d573cd), touches PDF.js code. Unfortunately it was landed upstream without, as far as I can tell, notifying us about it.
This patch uplifts the relevant changes to avoid future merge conflicts, and for consistency also tweaks `PdfJs-stub.jsm`.
As explained in
https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/issues/6174#issuecomment-118502802.
To verify that this patch works:
1. Build the Chrome extension (node make chromium)
2. Load the Chrome extension (at chrome://extensions)
3. Visit https://robwu.nl/pdfjs/issue6174/.
4. Verify that PDF.js is not used to load the PDF. Either Chrome's
default PDF Viewer is used, or the PDF is offered as a file download.
Fixes https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1170063.
The bug only mentions the <kbd>Meta</kbd> key, but given that a similar situation can occur for <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>, it seemed reasonable to also handle that case in the same patch.
The only possible caveat with the patch is that because of the use of `shadow`, things won't work perfectly if either of the prefs are changed *while* the viewer is active. In this case a reload is required in order for it to work correctly, but given that the issue this patch fixes should be quite rare anyway, that seems OK.
For some reason, https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1167053 changed methods of `NetUtil` yet *again*. This patch thus attempts to handle those changes, while keeping the addon backwards compatible.
I've tested this using all current Firefox versions (Nightly, Aurora/DevEdition, Beta, Release, ESR), and things still appears to work correctly.
This patch removes the only remaining CPOW usage from the code-base, and should thus fix https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1071082.
*Note:* This will not fix the "Open With Different Viewer" button in e10s, since clicking it still fails with `frontWindow is null` in the console, but I do believe that that issue is somewhat orthogonal to the current patch.
