To make it easier to tell which PDF.js version/commit that the *built* files correspond to, they have (since many years) included `pdfjsVersion` and `pdfjsBuild` constants with that information.
As currently implemented this has a few shortcomings:
- It requires manually adding the code, with its preprocessor statements, in all relevant files.
- It requires ESLint disable statements, since it's obviously unused code.
- Being unused, this code is removed in the minified builds.
- This information would be more appropriate as comments, however Babel discards all comments during building.
- It would be helpful to have this information at the top of the *built* files, however it's being moved during building.
To address all of these issues, we'll instead utilize Webpack to insert the version/commit information as a comment placed just after the license header.
Emscripten generates code that allows the caller to provide the Wasm
module (thorugh Module.instantiateWasm), with a fallback in case
.instantiateWasm is not provided. We always define instantiateWasm, so
we can hard-code the check and let our dead code elimination logic
remove the unused fallback.
This commit also improved the dead code elimination logic so that if
a function declaration becomes unused as a result of removing dead
code, the function itself is removed.
They were removed in the minified build, but the code that made the comments necessary was still there (just minified). This commit updates the Terser config to preserve them.
The default value of Terser's `comments` option is [`/@preserve|@copyright|@lic|@cc_on|^\**!/i`](d528103b7c/lib/output.js (L178C12-L178C53)), however the only type of comment it was actually matching in our case is `@lic`, for the license header in minified files. Thus the new regexp is `/@lic|webpackIgnore|@vite-ignore/i`.
In Webpack version `5.99.0` the way that `export` statements are handled was changed slightly, with much less boilerplate code being generated, which unfortunately breaks our `tweakWebpackOutput` function that's used to expose the exported properties globally and that e.g. the viewer depends upon.
Given that we were depending on formatting that should most likely be viewed as nothing more than an internal implementation detail in Webpack, we instead work-around this by manually defining the structures that were previously generated.
Obviously this will lead to a tiny bit more manual work in the future, however we don't change the API-surface often enough that it should be a big issue *and* the relevant unit-tests are updated such that it shouldn't be possible to break this.
*NOTE:* In the future we might want to consider no longer using global properties like this, and instead rely only on proper `export`s throughout the code-base.
However changing this would likely be non-trivial (given edge-cases), and it'd be an `api-major` change, so let's just do the minimal amount of work to unblock Webpack updates for now.
In order to use the PDF.js library in Node.js environments the `process.getBuiltinModule` functionality must be available, which was released in [version `20.16.0`](https://nodejs.org/en/blog/release/v20.16.0), however we've seen repeated issues filed by users on older `20.x` versions.
This is a major version bump, and the changelog at
https://github.com/metalsmith/layouts/releases/tag/v3.0.0
indicates a breaking change that impacts us, namely that we need to
explicitly define the pattern and transformer that we wish to use.
The `viewerCssTheme` was removed in #17222 and subsequently reenabled in #17293,
but only for Chromium and generic builds. This commit reenables the
function using the new method introduced in #17293.
This patch updates the minimum supported browsers as follows:
- Google Chrome 110, which was released on 2023-02-07; see https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2023/02/stable-channel-update-for-desktop.html
Note that nowadays we usually try, where feasible and possible, to support browsers that are about two years old. By limiting support to only "recent" browsers we reduce the risk of holding back improvements of the *built-in* Firefox PDF Viewer, and also (significantly) reduce the maintenance/support burden for the PDF.js contributors.
*Please note:* As always, the minimum supported browser version assumes that a `legacy`-build of the PDF.js library is being used; see https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/wiki/Frequently-Asked-Questions#faq-support
This prepares for a future where we're using more than one wasm-file, originating in different `external/`-folders, by extending the existing `gulp.watch` usage.

In order to fix bug 1935076, we'll have to add a pure js fallback in case wasm is disabled
or simd isn't supported. Unfortunately, this fallback will take some space.
So, the main goal of this patch is to reduce the overall size (by ~93k).
As a side effect, it should make easier to use an other wasm file (which must export
_jp2_decode, _malloc and _free).
When a user deletes any number of annotations, they are notified of the action
by a popup message with an undo button. Besides that, this change reuses the
existing messageBar CSS class from the new alt-text dialog as much as possible.
Given that `browsertest` repeatedly timeout in Google Chrome, and considering that Firefox is the primary development target, we stop running them on the bots to avoid having to repeatedly deal with this.
Note that we already disabled these tests *on Windows* almost three years ago, because of stability issues; see PR 14392.
JSON imports are now supported by all tools used in PDF.js' build
process. The `chromecom.js` file is bundled by webpack and
import attributes are thus removed, so browser compatibility for this
new syntax is not relevant.
