----------------------------------------
Hi Jan,
I don't get the point of the override properties part. What does it buy us? The
way you've set it up, it also loads from the classpath just like the language
identifier properties proper file, so, it shouldn't be any more arduous to just
mod that file if necessary (since they both are classpath loaded).
Let me know what you think. I've reviewed the rest of the patch it looks good
and I'm ready to commit it, sans the override part.
Cheers,
Chris

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: languageidentifier
> Affects Versions: 0.7
> Reporter: Jan Høydahl

> Currently the Tika LanguageIdentifier loads language profiles thorugh a
> hardcoded static block in the java code.
> It would be better to make this configurable, so you could add your own
> languages without recompiling.
> Suggested approach:
> Remove the static code block loading all languages. Instead look for a
> tika.languageidentification.properties file on classpath.
> Now the user can simply make his/her own (additional) language profile files,
> put them on the classpath together with a properties file and off you go!
> Also, once you make it configurable, there might be an issue of having the
> profiles as static members, as you will force the same behaviour for the
> whole VM. A static Map of Maps could solve this.
