Jukka Zitting updated TIKA-317:
-------------------------------
Attachment: TIKA-317.patch
The attached patch introduces the following new Parser method:
/**
* Returns the set of media types supported by this parser when used
* with the given parse context.
*
* @since Apache Tika 0.7
* @param context parse context
* @return immutable set of media types
*/
Set<MediaType> getSupportedTypes(ParseContext context);
An explicit method is better than static annotations since it allows the
parsers to better adapt to situations where optional functionality like certain
parser libraries are not available. This approach also works for things like
parser compositions and decorations.
The patch modifies the configuration mechanism so that the getSupportedTypes()
method is used whenever a <parser/> entry without embedded <mime/> elements is
encountered. This should maintain reasonable backwards compatibility with
existing config files until Tika 1.0.
