- Add decode_page_content_streams() function for per-page lazy decode - Update extract_page_from_dict() to support lazy stream decoding - Modify extract_pdf() and extract_pdf_ndjson() to enable lazy decoding - Fix borrow checker issue in LazyPageIter::next() This ensures content streams are decoded lazily per page and dropped immediately after processing, keeping peak RSS flat across page count.

ADR-001: MPL-2.0 License Exception for cbindgen
Status
Accepted
Context
pdftract-libpdftract uses cbindgen (v0.27) as a build dependency to generate C header files for the C FFI library. cbindgen is licensed under MPL-2.0, which is a copyleft license not in the default allow list.
Decision
MPL-2.0 is explicitly allowed for cbindgen as a build-only dependency.
Rationale
- cbindgen is a build dependency only - it is not linked into the final binary
- Build dependencies are compiled and executed during the build process, then discarded
- The MPL-2.0 copyleft terms do not apply to the final pdftract binary or library
- No viable alternative exists for generating C headers from Rust source
- cbindgen is the de-facto standard tool for Rust C FFI (used by Firefox, Servo, etc.)
Alternatives Considered
- Manual header maintenance: Impractical - would diverge from actual FFI signatures
- Other code generators: None support Rust's type system adequately for FFI
Consequences
- pdftract can use cbindgen for C FFI without violating license policy
- The MPL-2.0 license does not affect downstream users of pdftract
- This exception applies to cbindgen as a build dependency only
