What is the role of the interface FSPDF_Doc_InitiateJavaScript? And why would it destroy the form actions when calling the interface FSPDF_Doc_InitiateJavaScript before FSPDF_Doc_SetActionHandler?

FSPDF_Doc_InitiateJavaScript is mainly used for initiating javascript, such as a series of javascript functions and global variables that are stated by users. When opening a document, we should call this interface to initiate javascript, which may generate other actions that need support from external application. So the interface FSPDF_Doc_InitiateJavaScript should be called after FSPDF_Doc_SetActionHandler. Otherwise, the form actions will be destroyed.
