This addresses #12.

Pommaq commented 12 months ago

Running env LOG_LEVEL=info cargo run --release -- --filename examples/datetime-15012000.pdf date 1900 2000 does not successfully crack the PDF, while env LOG_LEVEL=info cargo run --release -- --filename examples/datetime-15012000.pdf date 1900 2001 succeeds despite this generator sending passwords inclusively. I suspect there is a bug somewhere else that will need to be investigated

Adding debug logging to the DateProducer next() function shows the correct password is being sent but not recognized.

 2023-12-03T21:34:13.151Z DEBUG pdfrip::core::production::dates > Sending 15012000 from DateProducer

This means there is a race condition somewhere. Likely in engine.rs.
