                 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.
