Hello everybody, I'm working on a script ATM which is using the epdf library. The manual says
<boolean> = <EmbFile>:save() -- will go
The manual also says
<string> = <EmbFile>:name() -- not (yet) implemented
Will the latter allow me to save the file to the disk as usual e.g., using the IO library? Don't know what <EmbFile>:name() is supposed to do.
Would't it be better if <FileSpec>:getEmbeddedFile() returns the file as a string instead of userdata? Everything would be easier then. At least at user level. The removal of <EmbFile>:save() will break existing scripts anyway, so I think that changing the behavior of <FileSpec>:getEmbeddedFile() is even less invasive. That's the old library .. which is gone and replaced in 1.10 by a new one. Nothing embedded file in there.
