Bertrand Delacretaz commented on SLING-1059:
--------------------------------------------
Content-based mime type detection is more costly than filename-based in all
cases (even if just a bit), so I'd suggest making the content-based part
optional.
Ideally in a transparent way: keep the existing interfaces from
sling.commons.mime-time, and if Tika (or another content-based mime type
provider) is active, use it.
> Mime Type Detection for WebDAV should use Apache Tika

> Key: SLING-1059
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-1059
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Lars Trieloff
> Priority: Minor
>
> Sling's WebDAV servlet currently has its own Mime Type detection mechanism.
> Given that Tika is a dependency of the soon to be added Jackrabbit 2.0 we can
> re-use Tika's Mime Type detection mechanism for greater accuracy and a better
> maintained list of mimetype-extension-mappings.
