[jira] Created: (PDFBOX-497) COSVisitorException: The handle is
invalid
COSVisitorException: The handle is invalid
------------------------------------------
Key: PDFBOX-497
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-497
Project: PDFBox
Issue Type: Bug
Components: PDModel
Environment: Windows Vista
Reporter: James A. Thomas
Fix For: 0.8.0-incubator
If I save a PDF document in a method of an application class, I get a COSVisitorException: The handle is invalid.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I found that I no longer get this exception if I do not close the
PDDocument "DrawingDoc" in the method "addDrawing".
However, I do get a warning:
java.lang.Throwable: Warning: You did not close the PDF Document
at org.apache.pdfbox.cos.COSDocument.finalize(COSDocument.java:391)

[jira] Commented: (PDFBOX-497) COSVisitorException: The handle is
invalid
Posted by "James A. Thomas (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-497?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12736952#action_12736952 ]
James A. Thomas commented on PDFBOX-497:
----------------------------------------
Andreas,
You (of course) were correct. I had to redesign my application to load the input document prior to calling the method, and then passing the PDDocument to it.
Is there something inherent in PDF that requires this with the resources, or is it how PDF Box is implemented?
At a minimum, I would think the order of things to do (not obvious to me) needs to be somewhere in the PDF Box documentation.
Thanks, Alan

Andreas Lehmkühler commented on PDFBOX-497:
-------------------------------------------
I guess you have to close your docs in the right order.
- open your input-doc
- create one or more docs as part of your input-doc
- save the new doc(s)
- close the new doc(s)
- close your input-doc
Please try this and give us a feedback.

[jira] Commented: (PDFBOX-497) COSVisitorException: The handle is
invalid
Posted by "Andreas Lehmkühler (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-497?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12737027#action_12737027 ]
Andreas Lehmkühler commented on PDFBOX-497:
-------------------------------------------
Alan,
thanks for your feedback.
The problem is that copyPage() doesn't really copy all the data, it just uses references to them. If the source doc is closed before the target doc is saved some of these references get lost and the described exception is thrown. If we want to change that behaviour we have to improve the copy mechanism to really copy the whole content of a page. AFAIK the code of the importPage method already copies all data, but the other 4 findXXX methods are just returning references and not a copy of the data.
I'm afraid that the pdfbox documentation is as complete and up-to-date as many other project documentations all over the world. ;-))
