Detailed Description

This class represents the library management. It contains functions to initialize/re-initialize/release Foxit PDF SDK library, and also contains functions for global use.
Any application should load Foxit PDF SDK by function FSDK.Library.Initialize before calling any other Foxit PDF SDK functions. When there is no need to use Foxit PDF SDK any more, please call function FSDK.Library.Release.
Functions in Foxit PDF SDK may throw exception when some error occurs. User can catch these exceptions and check the error code with values starting from FSDK.e_ErrFile to know more about what error occurs.

Note
During the life-cycle of an application, FSDK.Library.Initialize and FSDK.Library.Release should be called in pair and can only be called once. Once FSDK.Library.Release is called during the life-cycle of an application, Foxit PDF SDK cannot be initialized any more in the life-cycle of the application. Before FSDK.Library.Release is called, if user wants to re-initialize Foxit PDF SDK, please refer to function FSDK.Library.Reinitialize.

◆ RegisterSecurityCallback()

static FSDK.Library.RegisterSecurityCallback ( filter  ,
callback   
)
static

Register a FSDK.SecurityCallback object to Foxit PDF SDK for decryption of the PDFs with special encryption filters.

When this function is successful, Foxit PDF SDK will take over the input security callback object and user should not release this callback object directly anymore; otherwise unexpected crash may occurs later.
Foxit PDF SDK may release the security callback object by callback function FSDK.SecurityCallback.Release, when unregister it and find that it has not been used by other object. So, user is recommended not to use the security callback object any more after function FSDK.Library.UnregisterSecurityCallback.

Parameters
[in]filterThe filter name of the security callback object. This should not be null or an empty string.
When users implement security callback of FSDK.CustomSecurityCallback, users could specified their own custom filter string, but need to follow the PDF name conventions.
When users implement security callback of FSDK.CertificateSecurityCallback, the filter value must be set to "Adobe.PubSec".
When users implement security callback of FSDK.DRMSecurityCallback, the filter value must be set to "FoxitDRM", or some error may occur later.
When users implement security callback of FSDK.RMSSecurityCallback, the filter value must be set to "MicrosoftIRMServices" or "FoxitRMS", or some error may occur later.
[in]callbackA FSDK.SecurityCallback object, which is implemented by user and based on callback class FSDK.SecurityCallback. User should not inherit FSDK.SecurityCallback directly, but inherit its derived class, such as FSDK.CustomSecurityCallback, FSDK.CertificateSecurityCallback, etc.
Returns
true means success, while false means failure.
Note
If module "RMS" is not defined in the license information which is used in function FSDK.Library.Initialize, that means user has no right in using RMS related functions and this function will throw exception FSDK.e_ErrNoRMSModuleRight.

)
static

Register a third-party FSDK.SignatureCallback object to Foxit PDF SDK for signing and verifying signature, along with the filter and sub filter name of the callback.

Foxit PDF SDK has default signature callbacks defined with filter and sub filter:

  • filter: "Adobe.PPKLite" and sub filter: "adbe.pkcs7.detached"
  • filter: "Adobe.PPKLite" and sub filter: "adbe.pkcs7.sha1"
  • filter: "Adobe.PPKLite" and sub filter: "ETSI.CAdES.detached"
  • filter: "Adobe.PPKLite" and sub filter: "ETSI.RFC3161"

If user wants to use a third-party signature callback, please call this function before signing or verifying signature process.
If user register a customized signature callback with the same filter and sub filter as default ones by this function, and the value of parameter signature_callback is not null, the default signature callback in Foxit PDF SDK will not have effect. If user register a customized signature callback with the same filter and sub filter as default ones by this function, and the value of parameter signature_callback is null,
the default signature callback in Foxit PDF SDK will have effect again.

Parameters
[in]filterThe filter name of the signature callback, in ASCII encoding. This should not be an empty string. Filter name is the name of the signature callback.
[in]sub_filterThe sub filter name of the signature callback, in ASCII encoding. Sub filter is to describe the encoding of signature value and key information in the signature dictionary.
