Hi,
In my ongoing attempts to use various Java libraries, without writing any
Java myself, I have trying Apache Tika.
(http://tika.apache.org/1.4/api/org/apache/tika/Tika.html). With the tika
jar on the classpath I hoped the following would work:
import module namespace tika = "java:org.apache.tika.Tika";
declare namespace File="java:java.io.File";
let $file :=File:new("xx.pdf")
return tika:parse($file)
It generates the error
Signature 'org.apache.tika.Tika.parse' is ambiguous
Which maybe it is from some perspectives :-). I hoped some type information
might be available in the $file variable to resolve this, but it appears
not.
I was wondering about the possibility of using Java type at the XQuery
level e.g.
let $file as java:java.io.File :=File:new("xx.pdf")
Is there any way to avoid writing the couple of line Java class shim for
this and similar cases?
Regards
/Andy
