Nick Burch commented on TIKA-897: --------------------------------- We had support for detecting XML files that are ASCII, UTF-8 no-BOM, UTF-16LE and UTF-16BE. In r1328370 I've added detection + unit test for UTF-8 with a BOM We don't detect XML in UTF-32 (with or without BOMs), but I'm not sure if that's worth adding or not? > UTF-8 encoded XML is detected as text/plain because of UTF-8 BOM > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: TIKA-897 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-897 > Project: Tika > Issue Type: Bug > Components: mime > Affects Versions: 1.1 > Reporter: Wade Taylor > Priority: Minor > > Detection of XML fails when encoded as UTF-8. The UTF-8 BOM: 0xEF,0xBB,0xBF > causes the XML detector to fail when trying to match "<?xml" at the beginning > of the input stream. > -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
