Include parser class name in Metadata object.
---------------------------------------------
Key: TIKA-59
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-59
Project: Tika
Issue Type: Wish
Components: general
Affects Versions: 0.1-incubator
Reporter: Keith R. Bennett
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 0.1-incubator
It would be helpful to know which parser was used to parse a given document.
Some convenience methods eliminate the need for the user to make that
determination, so in that case there would be no way to know which parser was
used.
This feature could be helpful in testing and debugging, both for ourselves and
for users.
The class name could either be an entry in the Map (a property), or an instance
variable.
If the Parser ever becomes an abstract class, the act of setting this value
could be done in the abstract class constructor, eliminating the need for
parser implementations to deal with this.
