                                       PdfAction action)
```
    Adds an additional action to the provided PdfObjectWrapper<PdfDictionary> wrapper.
    
    Parameters:
    
    wrapper - the wrapper to add an additional action to
    
    key - a PdfName specifying the name of an additional action
    
    action - the PdfAction to add as an additional action
  - next

public void next(PdfAction nextAction)
```
    Adds a chained action.
    
    Parameters:
    
    nextAction - the next action or sequence of actions that shall be performed after the current action
  - put
```
public PdfAction put(PdfName key,
                     PdfObject value)
```
    Inserts the value into the underlying object of this PdfAction and associates it with the specified key. If the key is already present in this PdfAction, this method will override the old value with the specified one.
    
    Parameters:
    
    key - key to insert or to override
    
    value - the value to associate with the specified key
    
    Returns:
    
    this PdfAction instance
  - flush
```
public void flush()
```
    To manually flush a PdfObject behind this wrapper, you have to ensure that this object is added to the document, i.e. it has an indirect reference. Basically this means that before flushing you need to explicitly call PdfObjectWrapper.makeIndirect(PdfDocument). For example: wrapperInstance.makeIndirect(document).flush(); Note that not every wrapper require this, only those that have such warning in documentation.
    
    Overrides:
    
    flush in class PdfObjectWrapper<PdfDictionary>
  - isWrappedObjectMustBeIndirect
```
protected boolean isWrappedObjectMustBeIndirect()
```
    Defines if the object behind this wrapper must be an indirect object in the resultant document.
    
    If this method returns true it doesn't necessarily mean that object must be in the indirect state at any moment, but rather defines that when the object will be written to the document it will be transformed into indirect object if it's not indirect yet.
    
    Return value of this method shouldn't depend on any logic, it should return always true or false.
    
    Specified by:
    
    isWrappedObjectMustBeIndirect in class PdfObjectWrapper<PdfDictionary>
    
    Returns:
    
    true if in the resultant document the object behind the wrapper must be indirect, otherwise false.
