[jira] [Comment Edited] (PDFBOX-3353) Create appearance streams for
annotations
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3353?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15390013#comment-15390013 ]

--------------------------------------------------------------
The protected methods which Tilman mentioned and the constructors are new public API surface area. In general we've seen that users will inherit from core PDFBox classes to fix bugs and then never contribute back and complain when we fix the bugs in a way which breaks their subclass - so unless there's a very good reason to subclass PDAbstractContentStream, it shouldn't be possible.
I don't think it's really necessary to split PDPageContentStream into three classes (though we'd need to think through exactly what a good solution looks like), so we can most likely just avoid the whole issue.
