Dietmar Glachs updated TIKA-1070:
---------------------------------
Description:
The error occurs when parsing big "XLS" files and is caused by the ElementInfo
stored in "currentElement".
Each time a new element is started (method startElement) the current elment is
newly overwritten with
currentElement = new ElementInfo(currentElement, namespaces);
where the existing element is used as the parent element. Since the
currentElement is not reset to the parent element after finishing the element
(method: endElement) the method getPrefix recursively traverses the parents and
finally causes the StackOverFlowError
For my understanding: something like:
currentElement = currentElement.parent;
in the endElement method solves the issue!
