------------------------------------
Summary: Plain text file reported as binary
Key: TIKA-1434
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1434
Project: Tika
Issue Type: Bug
Components: detector, mime
Affects Versions: 1.6
Reporter: Marco Quaranta
Priority: Minor
Mime type detection of the attached file, an ASCII file, reports
application/octect-stream. The negative result is caused by ASCII-extended
characters in the file; TextStatistics.isMostlyAscii() calls return false. We
could try to call TextDetector.detect() two times: if the first call fails,
then we can try to convert bytes in utf-8 and call it again. What do you think?
