Tim Allison commented on TIKA-2159:
-----------------------------------
Is there any objection to creating an AbstractCompoundFileParser that would
extend AbstractParser? It would be used to handle documents that may contain
embedded objects. It would allow us to centralize getting the embedded
document extractor and handling internal exceptions, etc.
> Handle pre-parse embedded object exceptions uniformly and more robustly

> Key: TIKA-2159
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2159
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: parser
> Reporter: Tim Allison
> Priority: Minor
>
> When an embedded document is parsed and causes an exception, we're currently
> catching that and swallowing it in ParsingEmbeddedDocumentExtractor (the
> default) or reporting it in the RecursiveParserWrapper by storing the
> stacktrace in the Metadata of the embedded document.
> However, if there's an exception during detection on the embedded stream or
> on getting the stream _before_ the stream hits the parser, we aren't handling
> that uniformly or robustly across parsers.
