Jukka Zitting commented on TIKA-1074:
-------------------------------------
bq. InterruptedException is never thrown in these places today, so I can't add
the separate catch clause (compiler is angry).
It's a checked exception, so if it isn't declared to be thrown by POI, it
shouldn't get thrown here (even though the VM doesn't strictly prohibit that).
So in that case the extra check shouldn't even be needed.
bq. I think it's cleaner to set the interrupt bit and let the next place that
waits see the interrupt bit and throw IE?
I don't really like this approach. We're essentially saying: "Yes, you asked me
to stop what I'm doing, but instead I'll just finish up what I was doing and
ask the next guy to stop." Instead, when receiving an IE I'd prefer Tika to
stop immediately, either by letting the IE bubble up or (where necessary) by
throwing a TikaException that wraps the IE.

> In that issue, a problematic document (still not sure if document is corrupt,
> or possible POI bug) caused an exception when visiting the embedded documents.
> If I change Tika to suppress that exception, the rest of the document
> extracts fine.
> So somehow I think we should be more robust here, and maybe log the
> exception, or save/record the exception(s) somewhere so after parsing the app
> could decide what to do about them ...
