[jira] [Updated] (PDFBOX-6084) Remove dead code from PDFMarkedContentExtractor
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-6084?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Tilman Hausherr updated PDFBOX-6084:
------------------------------------
Description: Valery Bokov mentioned that we have some dead code in PDFMarkedContentExtractor. I'll remove that for now. It has been there for 15 years. Although the use case for it might exist (the same code exists in the classic stripper), we'll wait until having a support request, adding the code back in in a way that it gets used, and having a test for it. At this time, PDFMarkedContentExtractor is used by our own tests and by at least two stackoverflow answers. (was: Valery Bokov mentioned that we have some dead code in PDFMarkedContentExtractor.
