---------------------------------
Summary: JSoupParser conceals null from the EncodingDetector
Key: TIKA-4195
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-4195
Project: Tika
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Tim Allison
The JSoupParser is runs encoding detection on the inputstream. If the result is
null, the parser applies the default charset -- US-ASCII. This behavior is ok.
The problem is that there is no way to distinguish when a faulty encoding
detector alleges 'US-ASCII' and the default behavior of the JSoupParser. I
don't think the JSoupParser should report the fallback encoding as if it were
detected.
I'm not sure how best to report this in the metadata, but we need to be able to
differentiate detection and fallback encoding.
