In the referenced PDF document there are "numbers" which consist only of `-.`, and while that's obviously not valid Adobe Reader seems to handle it just fine.
Letting this method ignore more invalid "numbers" was suggested during the review of PR 14543, so let's simply relax our the validation here.
This appears to be consistent with the behaviour in both Adobe Reader and PDFium (in Google Chrome); this is essentially the same approach as used for a single decimal point in PR 9827.
Please note that these changes were done automatically, using `gulp lint --fix`.
Given that the major version number was increased, there's a fair number of (primarily whitespace) changes; please see https://prettier.io/blog/2020/03/21/2.0.0.html
In order to reduce the size of these changes somewhat, this patch maintains the old "arrowParens" style for now (once mozilla-central updates Prettier we can simply choose the same formatting, assuming it will differ here).
*This is part of a series of patches that will try to split PR 11566 into smaller chunks, to make reviewing more feasible.*
Once all the code has been fixed, we'll be able to eventually enable the ESLint no-shadow rule; see https://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-shadow
In order to eventually get rid of SystemJS and start using native `import`s instead, we'll need to provide "complete" file identifiers since otherwise there'll be MIME type errors when attempting to use `import`.
This patch makes the follow changes:
- Remove no longer necessary inline `// eslint-disable-...` comments.
- Fix `// eslint-disable-...` comments that Prettier moved down, thus causing new linting errors.
- Concatenate strings which now fit on just one line.
- Fix comments that are now too long.
- Finally, and most importantly, adjust comments that Prettier moved down, since the new positions often is confusing or outright wrong.
Note that Prettier, purposely, has only limited [configuration options](https://prettier.io/docs/en/options.html). The configuration file is based on [the one in `mozilla central`](https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/.prettierrc) with just a few additions (to avoid future breakage if the defaults ever changes).
Prettier is being used for a couple of reasons:
- To be consistent with `mozilla-central`, where Prettier is already in use across the tree.
- To ensure a *consistent* coding style everywhere, which is automatically enforced during linting (since Prettier is used as an ESLint plugin). This thus ends "all" formatting disussions once and for all, removing the need for review comments on most stylistic matters.
Many ESLint options are now redundant, and I've tried my best to remove all the now unnecessary options (but I may have missed some).
Note also that since Prettier considers the `printWidth` option as a guide, rather than a hard rule, this patch resorts to a small hack in the ESLint config to ensure that *comments* won't become too long.
*Please note:* This patch is generated automatically, by appending the `--fix` argument to the ESLint call used in the `gulp lint` task. It will thus require some additional clean-up, which will be done in a *separate* commit.
(On a more personal note, I'll readily admit that some of the changes Prettier makes are *extremely* ugly. However, in the name of consistency we'll probably have to live with that.)
There's a fair number of (primarily) `Array`s/`TypedArray`s whose formatting we don't want disturb, since in many cases that would lead to the code becoming much more difficult to read and/or break existing inline comments.
*Please note:* It may be a good idea to look through these cases individually, and possibly re-write some of the them (especially the `String` ones) to reduce the need for all of these ignore commands.
A lot of the `new Parser()` call-sites look quite unwieldy/ugly as-is, with a bunch of somewhat randomly ordered arguments, which we can avoid by changing the constructor to accept an object instead. As an added bonus, this provides better documentation without having to add inline argument comments in the code.
Moreover, group the lexer unit tests per method. This matches what we
do for other classes and makes it more easily visible which methods
we don't or insufficiently unit test.
The parser itself is not unit tested yet, so this patch provides a start
for doing so. The `inlineStreamSkipEI` method is used in other end
marker detection methods, so it's important that its functionality is
correct for proper parsing.
With the current code line-breaks are accepted not just after an operator, but after a decimal point as well. When looking at this again, the latter case seems prone to cause false positives and might also interfere with subsequent patches.
Hence this is code is adjusted to actually do what the original commit message says, and nothing more.
*This is a regression from PR 3424.*
The PDF file in the referenced issue is using `Type3` fonts. In one of those, the `/CharProcs` dictionary contains an entry with the name `/#`. Before the changes to `Lexer_getName` in PR 3424, we were allowing certain invalid `Name` patterns containing the NUMBER SIGN (#).
It's unfortunate that this has been broken for close to two and a half years before the bug surfaced, but it should at least indicate that this is not a widespread issue.
Fixes 6692.
Basic mathematics would suggest that a double negative should always become positive, but it appears that Adobe Reader simply ignores that case. Hence I think that it makes sense for us to do the same.
Fixes 6218.
Now, it computes the numbers with only basic arithmetic operations, without first creating a string and then calling parseFloat.
The new function doesn't behave exactly the same as the old one.
In particular, the old behaviour was that when there was a number immediatly followed by an 'E', the 'E' was consumed. Now it's not. It allows for "glued" numbers and operators.
Also, the new function is faster and consumes less memory.
Do not throw exception when hex strings are in the wrong format
Currently pdf.js is throwing an exception for the following hex string:
`<7 0 2 15 5 2 2 2 4 3 2 4>`
The issue is that the 15 is not a valid hex character so pdf.js ends up
throwing an exception.
This diff changes the parser to process the above hex string as follow:
`70 21 55 2 24 32` (Note: the final 4 of the hex string is ignored)
replicating the behaviour of MuPDF, and doesn't throw an exception.
