Now that modern JavaScript is fully supported also in the worker-thread we no longer need to keep old closures, which slightly reduces the size of the code.
After PR 12563 we're now free to use optional chaining in the worker-thread as well. (This patch also fixes one previously "missed" case in the `web/` folder.)
For the MOZCENTRAL build-target this patch reduces the total bundle-size by `1.6` kilobytes.
This method was added in PR 4938, almost nine years ago, however it doesn't appear to ever have been used.
Given the similarities between the `PDF17` and `PDF20` classes, and how they're used, if the `PDF20.hash` method was actually necessary you'd also expect a similiar method in the `PDF17` class.
I noticed the 256 % 3 (which is equal to 1) so I slighty simplify the code.
The sum of the 16 Uint8 doesn't exceed 2^12, hence we can just take the
sum modulo 3.
Unless you actually need to check that something is both a `Name` and also of the *correct* type, using `instanceof Name` directly should be a tiny bit more efficient since it avoids one function call and an unnecessary `undefined` check.
This patch uses ESLint to enforce this, since we obviously still want to keep the `isName` helper function for where it makes sense.
Unless you actually need to check that something is both a `Dict` and also of the *correct* type, using `instanceof Dict` directly should be a tiny bit more efficient since it avoids one function call and an unnecessary `undefined` check.
This patch uses ESLint to enforce this, since we obviously still want to keep the `isDict` helper function for where it makes sense.
To get the maximum benefit from something like Prettier, you obviously don't want to disable the automatic formatting unless absolutely necessary. When we added Prettier there were a number of cases, mostly involving larger Arrays, which required disabling of the automatic formatting for overall readability and/or to not break inline comments.
With changes in Prettier version `2.3.0`, see [the release notes](https://prettier.io/blog/2021/05/09/2.3.0.html#concise-formatting-of-number-only-arrays-10106httpsgithubcomprettierprettierpull10106-10160httpsgithubcomprettierprettierpull10160-by-thorn0httpsgithubcomthorn0), there's now better formatting support for Arrays containing only numbers. Hence we can now remove a number of `// prettier-ignore` comments, and thus get the benefit of automatic formatting in (slightly) more of the code-base.
All of this code predates the existence of native JS classes, however we can now clean this up a bit. This patch thus let us remove some variable "shadowing" from the code.
This helper function is first of all only called *twice*, and secondly it also leads to unnecessary intermediate allocations given how the `TypedArray`s are handled.
Hence we can simply inline this small function, and thus directly allocate the combined `TypedArray` instead.
The `compareByteArrays` is first of all duplicated in multiple closures in the `src/core/crypto.js` file. Secondly, despite its name, it's also functionally equivalent to the now existing `isArrayEqual` helper function.
The `isArrayEqual` helper function is changed to use a standard `for`-loop, rather than `Array.prototype.every`, since that ought to be slightly more efficient given that we're now using it with (potentially) larger data.
There's built-in ESLint rule, see `sort-imports`, to ensure that all `import`-statements are sorted alphabetically, since that often helps with readability.
Unfortunately there's no corresponding rule to sort `export`-statements alphabetically, however there's an ESLint plugin which does this; please see https://www.npmjs.com/package/eslint-plugin-sort-exports
The only downside here is that it's not automatically fixable, but the re-ordering is a one-time "cost" and the plugin will help maintain a *consistent* ordering of `export`-statements in the future.
*Note:* To reduce the possibility of introducing any errors here, the re-ordering was done by simply selecting the relevant lines and then using the built-in sort-functionality of my editor.
This simplifies/consolidates the ESLint configuration slightly in the `src/` folder, and prevents the addition of any new files where `var` is being used.[1]
Hence we no longer need to manually add `/* eslint no-var: error */` in files, which is easy to forget, and can instead disable the rule in the `src/core/` files where `var` is still in use.

[1] Obviously the `no-var` rule can, in the same way as every other rule, be disabled on a case-by-case basis where actually necessary.
Given the way that "classes" were previously implemented in PDF.js, using regular functions and closures, there's a fair number of false positives when the `no-shadow` ESLint rule was enabled.
Note that while *some* of these `eslint-disable` statements can be removed if/when the relevant code is converted to proper `class`es, we'll probably never be able to get rid of all of them given our naming/coding conventions (however I don't really see this being a problem).
This covers cases that the `--fix` command couldn't deal with, and in a few cases (notably `src/core/jbig2.js`) the code was changed to use block-scoped variables instead.
Please find additional details about the ESLint rule at https://eslint.org/docs/rules/prefer-const
With the recent introduction of Prettier this sort of mass enabling of ESLint rules becomes a lot easier, since the code will be automatically reformatted as necessary to account for e.g. changed line lengths.
Note that this patch is generated automatically, by using the ESLint `--fix` argument, and will thus require some additional clean-up (which is done separately).
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`.
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.
This commit is the first step for extracting a base class for the
`AES128Cipher` and the `AES256Cipher` classes. The objective here is to
make code changes (not altering the logic) to make the implementations
as similar as possible as found by creating a diff of both classes.
In particular, we extract the key size and cycles of repetitions
constants since they are different for AES-128 and AES-256. Moreover, we
rename functions to be similar.
In the `AES256Cipher` class, there was an additional assignment to
`this` in the decryption function. However, this was unnecessary because
the assignment would also be done when the loop was exited.
This replaces `assert` calls with `throw new FormatError()`/`throw new Error()`.
In a few places, throwing an `Error` (which is what `assert` meant) isn't correct since the enclosing function is supposed to return a `Promise`, hence some cases were changed to `Promise.reject(...)` and similarily for `createPromiseCapability` instances.
Please note that the `glyphlist.js` and `unicode.js` files are converted to CommonJS modules instead, since Babel cannot handle files that large and they are thus excluded from transpilation.
Please see http://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-unused-vars; note that this patch purposely uses the same rule options as in `mozilla-central`, such that it fixes part of issue 7957.
It wasn't, in my opinion, entirely straightforward to enable this rule compared to the already existing rules. In many cases a `var descriptiveName = ...` format was used (more or less) to document the code, and I choose to place the old variable name in a trailing comment to not lose that information.
I welcome feedback on these changes, since it wasn't always entirely easy to know what changes made the most sense in every situation.
Please see http://eslint.org/docs/rules/spaced-comment.
Note that the exceptions added for `line` comments are intended to still allow use of the old preprocessor without linting errors.
Also, I took the opportunity to improve the grammar slightly (w.r.t. capitalization and punctuation) for comments touched in the patch.
