Better handling of partial/truncated input data to parsers
----------------------------------------------------------
Key: TIKA-307
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-307
Project: Tika
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: parser
Affects Versions: 0.4
Reporter: Ken Krugler
Some parsers (e.g. ZipParser) can hang if they prematurely reach the end of the
input stream.
As a way of avoiding this issue, Jukka had suggested the following approach on
the list:
The input stream could be wrapped into a decorator that throws a tagged
IOException when the given size limit has been reached. This assumes that all
parsers will correctly propagate up an IOException (at the very least).
Smarter parsers could cleanly close the emitted XHTML stream, potentially
adding a metadata entry that signifies that the extracted text has been
truncated.
