Pass Locale information to parsers
----------------------------------
Key: TIKA-125
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-125
Project: Tika
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: parser
Reporter: Jukka Zitting
Looking at TIKA-103 I realized that some file formats can contain data whose
text rendering depends on the active Locale which might not be explicitly
specified in the file format or the specific document being parsed.
It should be possible for a parser client to explicitly specify which Locale
should be used as the default when extracting text from a document. Setting the
global default with Locale.setLocale() is not an option in many cases.
I think the best way to pass Locale information to a parser is as a part of the
Metadata object.
