Torsten Krah created TIKA-1148:
----------------------------------
Summary: application/x-msdownload should have text/plain as super
type
Key: TIKA-1148
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1148
Project: Tika
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: mime
Affects Versions: 1.3
Environment: Linux, JDK 1.7
Reporter: Torsten Krah
Priority: Trivial
Using a standard batch file Tika.detect(...) detects from the magic String
detector that it is text/plain.
The MimeDetector tells application/x-msdownload.
The instanceOf test fails to detect, that a ".bat" is a "subtype" of
"text/plain".
Fixed this as workaround with:
MimeTypes.getDefaultMimeTypes().setSuperType(MimeTypes.getDefaultMimeTypes().forName("application/x-msdownload"),
MimeTypes.getDefaultMimeTypes().forName("text/plain").getType());
>From my point of view its a batch file is a text/plain type, so the hint from
>the extension detector should be accepted and not ignored.
Can this be added to the mimetypes xml?
