With version 2.0, native support for typed arrays is now a requirement for using the PDF.js library; see PR 9094 where the old polyfills were removed.
Hence the `isTypedArraysPresent` check, when setting up fake workers, no longer serves any purpose here and can thus be removed.
There's no good reason, as far as I can tell, to duplicate the functionality of the `LoopbackPort` in the unit-tests. The only difference between the implementations is that `LoopbackPort` mimics the (native) structured cloning, however that shouldn't matter here since the tests are only sending "simple" data (strings respectively arrays with numbers).
Furthermore the patch also changes `LoopbackPort` to default to using "structured cloning" and deferred invocation of the listeners, since native typed array support is now a requirement for using the PDF.js library.
The `MessageHandler` itself, and its assorted helper functions, are currently the single largest[1] piece of code in the `src/shared/util.js` file. By moving this code into its own file, `src/shared/util.js` thus becomes smaller and more manageable.
The `fontScale` property was added in PR 1531, see commit b312719d7e in particular, apparently for the sole purpose of supporting the "acroforms" example.
However, the `fontScale` property was never used anywhere else in the code-base, and after the modernization of the "acroforms" example in PR 8030 it's been completely unused.
Finally, note that there's also a (more suitably named) `scale` property on `PageViewport` instances, which contains the exact same information as the property being removed here.
To avoid having to manually update the "shared files" list in `gulpfile.js`, whenever any changes are made to the file structure in the `src/shared/` folder, let's simply list the files we do *not* want instead.
Given that the excluded files have been consistent ever since the `lib` build target was added, this patch should help avoid unnecessary churn in `gulpfile.js` in the future.
I made some mistakes when trying to make the content_disposition.js
compatible with non-modern browsers (IE/Edge).
Notably, text decoding was usually skipped because of the inverted
logical check at the top of `textdecode`.
I verified that this new version works as expected, as follows:
1. Visit 55c71eb44e/test/
and get test-content-disposition.js
also get test-content-disposition.node.js if using Node.js,
or get test-content-disposition.html if you use a browser.
2. Modify `test-content-disposition.node.js` (or the HTML file) and
change `../extension/content-disposition.js` to `PDFJS-content_disposition.js`
3. Copy the `getFilenameFromContentDispositionHeader` function from
`content_disposition.js` (i.e. the file without the trailing exports)
and save it as `PDFJS-content_disposition.js`.
4. Run the tests (`node test-content-disposition.node.js` or by opening
`test-content-disposition.html` in a browser).
5. Confirm that there are no failures: "Finished all tests (0 failures)"
The code has a best-efforts fallback for Microsoft Edge, which lacks the
TextDecoder API. The fallback only supports the common UTF-8 encoding.
To simulate this in a test, modify `PDFJS-content_disposition.js` and
deliberately throw an error before `new TextDecoder`. There will be two
failures because we don't want to include too much code to support text
decoding for non-UTF-8 encodings in Edge
```

Compared to running the unit-tests in "regular" browsers, where any console output won't get mixed up with test output, in Node.js/Travis the test output looks quite noisy.
By ignoring `info`/`warn` calls, when running unit-tests in Node.js/Travis, the test output is a lot smaller not to mention that any *actual* failures are more easily spotted.
Please note that while the current code works, both in the viewer and the unit-tests, it can leave the `WorkerTransport._passwordCapability` Promise in a pending state.
In the `PasswordRequest` handler, in src/display/api.js, we're returning the Promise from a `capability` object (rather than just a "plain" Promise). While an error thrown anywhere within this handler was fortunately enough to propagate it to the Worker side, it won't cause the Promise (in `WorkerTransport._passwordCapability`) to actually be rejected.
Finally note that while we're now catching errors in the `PasswordRequest` handler, those errors are still propagated to the Worker side via the (now) rejected Promise and the existing `return this._passwordCapability.promise;` line.
This prevents warnings about uncaught Promises, with messages such as "Error: Worker was destroyed during onPassword callback", when running the unit-tests both in browsers *and* in Node.js/Travis.
This should provide a better out-of-the-box experience when using PDF.js in a Node.js environment, since it's missing native support for both `@font-face` and `Image`.
Please note that this change *only* affects the default values, hence it's still possible for an API consumer to override those values when calling `getDocument`.
Also, prevents "ReferenceError: document is not defined" errors, when running the unit-tests in Node.js/Travis.
This avoids the initialization of, potentially thousands of, unnecessary `Stream` objects, by getting the required number of bytes directly instead.
Given the special behaviour, when `length === 0`, of the `getBytes`/`skip` methods, it's also necessary to handle that particular case to prevent errors when encountering empty CharStrings.
