B4A Library PDFium - Pdfview2

This is a wrap for a PDF-View which is based on PDFium.
It is based on these two Github-Projects: Pdfium and Android PDF-View
The PDF-View is based on Pdfium 1.9

The Library, resp. the Natives inside, are 64bit Compliant btw.

It supports Horizontal and Vertical scrolling, Pagesnap.

Due to the Size of the native .so Files the library is big (18mb) and can be downloaded from my Dropbox.
The Example is to big (2mb) too so it is available on Dropbox too.

V1.02 adds Support for a LinkHandler

Code: 
    Dim cfg As Configurator = PDFView1.fromUri(File.DirInternal,"sample-link_2.pdf")
    cfg.SetEventname("PDFium")
    cfg.autoSpacing(True).enableSwipe(True). _
    pageSnap(True). _
    swipeHorizontal(True). _
    addOnErrorListener. _
    addOnLoadCompleteListener. _
    addOnPageChangeListener. _
    addOnPageErrorListener. _
    addOnTapListener. _
    addOnRenderListener. _
    addLinkHandler. _ ' NEW
    load

If you add a linkHandler YOU are responsible to Handle the Links clicked.

Code: 
Sub Pdfium_LinkEvent(link As Map)
    Log($"Pdfium_LinkEvent(${link})"$)
    If link.ContainsKey("DestPageIdx") And link.Get("DestPageIdx") <> Null And link.Get("DestPageIdx") > -1 Then
        Log($"Internal Link in PDF clicked: Jump To Page ${link.Get("DestPageIdx")}"$)
        PDFView1.jumpTo(link.Get("DestPageIdx")) ' without this nothing will happen in the PDFView.
    else if link.ContainsKey("Link") And link.Get("Link") <> "" Then
        Log($"External Link in PDF clicked: ${link.Get("Link")}"$)
        ' You can open the URL in a Webview, download the link, whatever....
    End If
End Sub
Download in Dropbox (see Link in #1)

To gain Access to the Pages in a PDF you do not need the PDFView. You can work with the PDF directly.

You need to have a global reference to the pdfdocument (Type Object).
Code: 
public glDoc As Object

Load the pdf into the glDoc
Code: 
    glDoc = pdf.newDocument(File.DirInternal,"sample-link_2.pdf", 268435456,"")
You now can work with the glDoc Object.

For example if you want to get a Bitmap from a Page. Here i am creating a Bitmap from each page showed and put them into a Imageview

Code: 
Sub PDFium_onPageChanged(page As Int, TotalPages As Int)
    Log($"PDFium_onPageChanged(${page},${TotalPages})"$)
    lblPages.Text = $"${page-1}/${glPages}"$
    Dim bmp As Bitmap
    bmp.InitializeMutable(640dip,480dip) ' Bitmap on which the Page is rendered
    Log("OpenPage")
    pdf.openPage(glDoc,page) ' Mandatory to do before you want to render a Page   
    Log("RenderBitmap")
    pdf.renderPageBitmap(glDoc,bmp,page,0,0,640dip,480dip)
    Log("Set Bitmap to Imageview")
    image.Bitmap = bmp
    ' You can also save the Bitmap to a File. Do what you want with it ;-)   
End Sub

Unknown member ????

I can't get this project to work on my Android tablet !!!
 
You should ALWAYS create a new thread in the questionsforum for any Issue you have.
Posting in existing threads is a mistake.

As far as i know it can not be changed. if i remember correctly all available methods and properties are wrapped.....
 
Pointless posting in another thread if my question directly relates to this thread and I am reporting a problem with the library posted in this thread ?

It doesn't work... full stop.

Feel free to use any other library if you just want to ignore the forumrules.

Do not expect me to give any more answers here.

Please start a new thread if you encounter any Issue; i try to help there. You can add a link to this thread if you want. But as i am the only author of the wrapper i know of which library you are using if you are talking about PDFium.
 
I'm trying, but I always get an error:

Why a new thread? If it is a problem that I have when using the library that is proposed at the beginning of this thread?
 
Yes. The thread will only be filled with questions.

The correct way is to always create a new thread in the questionsforum for any Question you have.
This is my last answer here.

For new(er) members: How to post a question/issue

1. Please post the code AND the error message from the logs as TEXT within CODE TAGS. 2. Don't post images 3. Describe what the problem is (full sentences, not 3 words, not "my car doesn't work - guess what it is") 4. Use the search function FIRST (assume you're not the first person having that...
