Compared to the recent PR 15722 for the `textLayer` this one should be a (comparatively) much a smaller win overall, since most documents don't have any structTree-data and the required parsing should be cheaper. However, it seems to me that it cannot hurt to improve this nonetheless.
Note that by moving the `structTreeLayer` initialization we remove the need for the "textlayerrendered" event listener, which thus simplifies the code a little bit.
Also, removes the API-caching of the structTree-data since this was basically done to offset the lack of caching in the viewer.
This patch, first of all, removes circular dependencies in the TypeScript definitions. Secondly, it also moves `RenderingStates` into `web/ui_utils.js` to break another type-dependency and directly use the `XfaLayerBuilder` during XFA-printing.
Finally, note that this patch *slightly* reduces the size of the default viewer (e.g. in the `MOZCENTRAL` build) by not having to bundle code which is completely unused.
This patch circumvents the issues seen when trying to update TypeScript to version `4.5`, by "simply" fixing the broken/missing JSDocs and `typedef`s such that `gulp typestest` now passes.
As always, given that I don't really know anything about TypeScript, I cannot tell if this is a "correct" and/or proper way of doing things; we'll need TypeScript users to help out with testing!
*Please note:* I'm sorry about the size of this patch, but given how intertwined all of this unfortunately is it just didn't seem easy to split this into smaller parts.
However, one good thing about this TypeScript update is that it helped uncover a number of pre-existing bugs in our JSDocs comments.
The Viewer API definitions do not compile because of missing imports and
anonymous objects are typed as `Object`. These issues were not caught
during CI because the test project was not compiling anything from the
Viewer API.
As an example of the first problem:
```
/**
* @implements MyInterface
*/
export class MyClass {
...
}
```
will generate a broken definition that doesn’t import MyInterface:
```
/**
* @implements MyInterface
*/
export class MyClass implements MyInterface {
...
}
```
This can be fixed by adding a typedef jsdoc to specify the import:
```
/** @typedef {import("./otherFile").MyInterface} MyInterface */
```
See https://github.com/jsdoc/jsdoc/issues/1537 and
https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/22160 for more details.
As an example of the second problem:
```
/**
* Gets the size of the specified page, converted from PDF units to inches.
* @param {Object} An Object containing the properties: {Array} `view`,
* {number} `userUnit`, and {number} `rotate`.
*/
function getPageSizeInches({ view, userUnit, rotate }) {
...
}
```
generates the broken definition:
```
function getPageSizeInches({ view, userUnit, rotate }: Object) {
...
}
```
The jsdoc should specify the type of each nested property:
```
/**
* Gets the size of the specified page, converted from PDF units to inches.
* @param {Object} options An object containing the properties: {Array} `view`,
* {number} `userUnit`, and {number} `rotate`.
* @param {number[]} options.view
* @param {number} options.userUnit
* @param {number} options.rotate
*/
```
When a PDF is "marked" we now generate a separate DOM that represents
the structure tree from the PDF. This DOM is inserted into the <canvas>
element and allows screen readers to walk the tree and have more
information about headings, images, links, etc. To link the structure
tree DOM (which is empty) to the text layer aria-owns is used. This
required modifying the text layer creation so that marked items are
now tracked.
