- since resetForm function reset a field value a calculateNow is consequently triggered.
But the calculate callback can itself call resetForm, hence an infinite recursive loop.
So basically, prevent calculeNow to be triggered by itself.
- in Firefox, the letters entered in some fields were duplicated: "AaBb" instead of "AB".
It was mainly because beforeInput was triggering a Keystroke which was itself triggering
an input value update and then the input event was triggered.
So in order to avoid that, beforeInput calls preventDefault and then it's up to the JS to
handle the event.
- fields have a property valueAsString which returns the value as a string. In the
implementation it was wrongly used to store the formatted value of a field (2€ when the user
entered 2). So this patch implements correctly valueAsString.
- non-rendered fields can be updated in using JS but when they're, they must take some properties
in the annotationStorage. It was implemented for field values, but it wasn't for
display, colors, ...
- it fixes#14862 and #14705.
- app.alert and few other function can use an object as parameter ({cMsg: ...});
- support app.alert with a question and a yes/no answer;
- update field siblings when one is changed in an action;
- stop calculation if calculate is set to false in the middle of calculations;
- get a boolean for checkboxes when they've been set through annotationStorage instead of a string.
* JS - Handle correctly hierarchy of fields
- it aims to fix#13132;
- annotations can inherit their actions from the parent field;
- there are some fields which act as a container for other fields:
- they can be access through js so need to add them with an empty type (nothing in the spec about that but checked in Acrobat);
- calculation order list (CO) can reference them so need make them through this.getField;
- getArray method must return kids.
- field values are number, string, ... depending of their type but nothing in the spec on how to know what's the type:
- according to the comment for Canonical Format: https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/pdf/pdfs/PDF32000_2008.pdf#page=461
- it seems that this "type" can be guessed from js action Format (when setting a type in Acrobat DC, the only affected thing is this action).
- util.scand with an empty string returns the current date.
* the goal is to execute actions like Open or OpenAction
* can be tested with issue6106.pdf (auto-print)
* once #12701 is merged, we can add page actions
* move set/clear|Timeout/Interval and crackURL code in pdf.js
* remove the "backdoor" in the proxy (used to dispatch event) and so return the dispatch function in the initializer
* remove listeners if an error occured during sandbox initialization
* add support for alert and prompt in the sandbox
* add a function to eval in the global scope
* quickjs-eval.js has been generated using https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js.quickjs/
* lazy load of sandbox code
* Rewrite tests to use the sandbox
* Add a task `watch-sandbox` which update bundle pdf.sandbox.js on change in the sandbox code
* https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/js_api_reference.pdf#page=335
* it has all the properties/methods defined in the spec
* unimplemented methods are there but with an empty body to avoid exception when calling an undefined method
* implement zoom, zoomType, layout, pageNum, ...
