No support for cross-document links in the outline

[demidrol]

I've got a large book split into chapters, and each of these files have table of contents. It is the same for all of these chunks and is displayed correctly in qpdfview.

But clicking on items in TOC results in qpdfview jumping to the specified page in the SAME document, not in that specified in TOC.

The document work well in okular and in acroread, so I suppose it is a valid one.

Hello demidrol,

thank you for taking the time to report this! Can you be specific about the version of qpdfview that use? The current version does have support for external links, but of course it might still be broken. Could you also provide example documents which demonstrate the issue? Thank you.

Best regards, Adam,

I'm using 0.4.15 (from gentoo). Example files are in attachment. Just try to open 67827_dedi.pdf and click on "Front matter" in the outline.

Hello again,

now I understand the issue: This is not about cross-document links as objects on the pages, which we do support, but about supporting cross-document links from the outline, which is currently not implemented. I looked up the necessary API and will try to add an implementation in the coming days.

Best regards, Adam.

Hello again,

could you try to build trunk revision 1981 or later from source? It should add following external outline links.

Best regards, Adam.

Hello Adam,

the version from trunk works perfectly. Thank you!
