[Question #630991]: avoid predictible crashs

 

New question #630991 on qpdfview:

Hi all,

it's a feature request.
I recently stumbled upon a (temporarily) strange trouble.
Someone sent me some pdf files I tried to open with qpdfview. It crashes
every time with a "segmentation fault" message.
It took me some time to discover that the so called pdf files were
in fact... html files!
So, could it be possible to make a file format verification before
trying to load the file and adjust the error message accordingly?

Thanks à lot,
