Paco Avila commented on JCR-728:
--------------------------------
Why LGPL is troublesome? Source code using a LGPL library does not have to be
LGPL or GPL. A port of libmagic to Java should be nice because there is lots of
MIME definitions in its format.
And yes, I think that is more useful to add more functionality to
jackrabbit-index-filters. By the way some MS Office files thows errors when
they are indexed. I know this is a POI issue, but is this project abandoned?
There is no updates since 04-08-2004 :(

> Key: JCR-728
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-728
> Project: Jackrabbit
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: indexing
> Reporter: Jukka Zitting
> Priority: Minor
>
> Currently only the jcr:mimeType property is used to determine the MIME type
> and thus the applicable text extractor to use for indexing a document. If the
> jcr:mimeType property is not available or is set to a generic value like
> "application/octet-stream", then the indexer could also use some heuristics
> based on the node name or magic numbers within the binary stream to determine
> the type of the document.
