Aspose.Pdf - Form.FillField

Aspose.PDF Product Family
1

Hi,


I’m using Aspose 6.6, just upgraded from an earlier version 4.4.

A webservice is using the Form.FillField in pdf files. And it has worked for 1-2 years. Now after the upgrade, It runs fine for the first request, then it hangs forever on the statement:
bool filled = form.FillField(aRepPhase, value);

I’m using a stream as output. Is there som kind of dispose that fails after the first request?

regards
Thomas

Hi,


I managed to get past the problem, using byte arrays, and convert them to MemoryStreams, then close() and Dispose(). Now I got a similar problem:

private static byte[] FormatPDFDokument(byte[] array, string absoluteUrl)
{
MemoryStream streamOfMergedPdf = new MemoryStream(array);
streamOfMergedPdf.Position = 0;

var pdf = new PdfFileInfo(streamOfMergedPdf);
int pageCount = pdf.NumberOfPages;

MemoryStream formatedPDFStream = new MemoryStream();

var formEditor = new FormEditor(streamOfMergedPdf, formatedPDFStream);
formEditor.AddSubmitBtn(“HttpSubmit”, pageCount, “Lagre”, ConfigFileHelper.GetStringValue(ConfigFileHelper.PDF_FORM_URL) + “?templateUrl=” + absoluteUrl, 10, 10, 150, 30);
formEditor.Save();

streamOfMergedPdf.Close();
streamOfMergedPdf.Dispose();

formatedPDFStream.Position = 0;
array = formatedPDFStream.ToArray();

formatedPDFStream.Close();
formatedPDFStream.Dispose();

formEditor = null;

return array;
}

It runs fine the first time, then the second time, it hangs on the AddSubmitBtn line forever. If I wait one minute or something, it seems to run again. Keep in mind that its running under a Webservice on a IIS server.

thanks for your help
