This file contains all the changes in documentation in the packagecom.itextpdf.kernel.utilsas colored differences. Deletions are shownlike this, and additions are shown like this.
If no deletions or additions are shown in an entry, the HTML tags will be what has changed. The new HTML tags are shown in the differences. If no documentation existed, and then some was added in a later version, this change is noted in the appropriate class pages of differences, but the change is not shown on this page. Only changes in existing text are shown here. Similarly, documentation which was inherited from another class or interface is not shown here.
Note that an HTML error in the new documentation may cause the display of other documentation changes to be presented incorrectly. For instance, failure to close a tag will cause all subsequent paragraphs to be displayed differently.

Class CompareTool.ObjectPath
Class that helps to find two corresponding objects in the comparing documents and also keeps track of the already met in comparing process parent indirect objects.
You could say that ObjectPath instance consists of two parts: direct path and indirect path. Direct path defines
path to the currently comparing objects in relation to base objects. It could be empty, which would mean that
currently comparing objects are base objects themselves. Base objects are the two indirect objects from the comparing
documents which are in the same position in the pdf trees. Another part, indirect path, defines which indirect
objects were met during comparison process to get to the current base objects. Indirect path is needed to avoid
infinite loops during comparison.

@return direct path to the comparing object.
Class CompareTool.ObjectPath, boolean isComparing(PdfIndirectReference, PdfIndirectReference)
This method is used to define if given objects were already met in the path to the current base objects. If this method returns true it basically means that we found a loop in the objects structure and that we already compared these objects.
@param cmpObject cmp object to check if it was already met in base objects path. @param outObject out object to check if it was already met in base objects path. @return true if given objects are contained in the path and therefore were already compared.
Class CompareTool.ObjectPath, void pushArrayItemToPath(int)

@param key key in the dictionary to which corresponds direct object to be compared.
Class CompareTool.ObjectPath, void pushOffsetToPath(int)
Adds offset item to the direct path. See OffsetPathItem.
@param offset offset to the specific byte in the stream that is compared.
Class CompareTool.ObjectPath, ObjectPath resetDirectPath(PdfIndirectReference, PdfIndirectReference)
Creates a new ObjectPath instance with two new given base objects, which are supposed to be nested in the base objects of the current instance of the ObjectPath. This method is used to avoid infinite loop in case of circular references in pdf documents objects structure.

Class CompareTool, CompareResult compareByCatalog(PdfDocument, PdfDocument)
Compares two PDF documents by content starting from Catalog dictionary and then recursively comparing corresponding objects which are referenced from it. You can roughly imagine it as depth-first traversal of the two trees that represent pdf objects structure of the documents.
The main difference between this method and the .compareByContent(String, String, String, String) methods is the return value. This method returns a CompareResult class instance, which could be used in code, however compareByContent methods in case of the differences simply return String value, which could only be printed. Also, keep in mind that this method doesn't perform visual comparison of the documents.

It is possible to ignore certain areas of the document pages during visual comparison. This is useful for example in case if documents should be the same except certain page area with date on it. In this case, in the folder specified by the outPath, new pdf documents will be created with the black rectangles at the specified ignored areas, and visual comparison will be performed on these new documents.
@param outPdf the absolute path to the output file, which is to be compared to cmp-file. @param cmpPdf the absolute path to the cmp-file, which is to be compared to output file. @param outPath the absolute path to the folder, which will be used to store image files for visual comparison. @param differenceImagePrefix file name prefix for image files with marked differences if there is any. @param ignoredAreas a map with one-based page numbers as keys and lists of ignored rectangles as values. @return string containing list of the pages that are visually different, or null if there are no visual differences. @throws InterruptedException @throws IOException

Class CompareTool, CompareTool disableCachedPagesComparison()
Disables the default logic of pages comparison. This option makes sense only for CompareTool.compareByCatalog(PdfDocument, PdfDocument) method.
By default, pages are treated as special objects and if they are met in the process of comparison, then they are not checked as objects, but rather simply checked that they has same page numbers in both documents. This behaviour is intended for the CompareTool.compareByContent set of methods, because in them documents are compared in page by page basis. Thus, we don't need to check if pages are of the same content when they are met in comparison process, we are sure that we will compare their content or we have already compared them.
However, if you would use CompareTool.compareByCatalog with default behaviour of pages comparison, pages won't be checked at all, every time when reference to the page dictionary is met, only page numbers will be compared for both documents. You can say that in this case, comparison will be performed for all document's catalog entries except /Pages (However in fact, document's page tree structures will be compared, but pages themselves - won't).
@return this CompareTool instance.
