Hi, when I run the example on page 261/262 of the LuaTeX Manual and the input file ("foo.pdf" in the example) doesn't exist, I get Segmentation fault (core dumped) on x86_64-linux.

Confirmed. The test is local operatortable = { } operatortable.Do = function(scanner,info) local resources = info.resources if resources then local val = scanner:pop() local name = val[2] local xobject = resources.XObject print(info.space .. "Uses XObject " .. name) local resources = xobject.Resources if resources then local newinfo = { space = info.space .. " ", resources = resources, } pdfscanner.scan(entry, operatortable, newinfo) end end end local function Analyze(filename) local doc = pdfe.open(filename) if doc then local pages = doc.Pages for i=1,#pages do local page = pages[i] local info = { space = " " , resources = page.Resources, } print("Page " .. i) -- pdfscanner.scan(page.Contents,operatortable,info) pdfscanner.scan(page.Contents(),operatortable,info) end end end Analyze("foo.pdf") -- luigi

This is ok $ luatex --fmt=luatex-plain "test-plain.tex" \directlua{ local operatortable = { } operatortable.Do = function(scanner,info) local resources = info.resources if resources then local val = scanner:pop() local name = val[2] local xobject = resources.XObject print(info.space ..

Hi Luigi, this works here too. I get: This is LuaTeX, Version 1.10.0 (TeX Live 2019) restricted system commands enabled. (./testpdfscanner.tex warning (pdfe lib): no valid pdf file 'foo.pdf' ) (see the transcript file for additional information) warning (pdf backend): no pages of output. Transcript written on testpdfscanner.log. I suppose that texlua crashes when trying to print the warning, see gdb output below.

Hi Luigi, this works here too. I get:

I suppose that texlua crashes when trying to print the warning, see gdb output below. What I don't understand is is why luatex and texlua behave differently here.

because the print of the warning requires a TeX state. texlua has only a Lua state. -- luigi

Thanks for the info. I'll use lfs.isfile() then.

Do you have any plan of fixing this? If not, please consider the attached patch. Without this, even the simple file test.lua containing pdfe.open("foo.pdf") causes a segfault... Hironobu

Yes I will fix it, unfortunately after TeXLive 2019 is closed. Thank you for the patch. -- luigi
