--------------------------------------
Summary: Improve performance and usability of RereadableInputStream
Key: TIKA-3313
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-3313
Project: Tika
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Peter Kronenberg
I was challenged by the following comment:
{code:java}
// TODO: At some point it would be better to replace the current approach
// (specifying the above) with more automated behavior. The stream could
// keep the original stream open until EOF was reached. For example, if:
//
// the original stream is 10 bytes, and
// only 2 bytes are read on the first pass
// rewind() is called
// 5 bytes are read
//
// In this case, this instance gets the first 2 from its store,
// and the next 3 from the original stream, saving those additional 3
// bytes in the store. In this way, only the maximum number of bytes
// ever needed must be saved in the store; unused bytes are never read.
// The original stream is closed when EOF is reached, or when close()
// is called, whichever comes first. Using this approach eliminates
// the need to specify the flag (though makes implementation more
complex).{code}
Challenge accepted
