Dan Coldrick commented on TIKA-3742:
------------------------------------

[~nick] 

Apologies, new to all this. Can you point me at some documentation? External 
parsers assume they don't exist in the main TIKA GIT and you have another repo 
just for that parser that users can add in? Or does it work differently?

> Hi [~tallison] & Whoever else. 
> I managed to compile the C/C++ library [http://dgnlib.maptools.org/]  for 
> DGN7 which produces an dgndump.exe which will dump all the data from the DGN. 
> From my initial testing it looks pretty good. 
> Would you guys think it was worth adding this or just keep it as a custom 
> parser rather than in the main source code? It's under MIT license. I've 
> attached the exe (zipped), a copy of the output from the dump and my very 
> dirty testing calling the exe (my code I was only interested in the Strings 
> so am only pulling those into a string array at the moment to check it's 
> pulling out the correct data).
