David Pilato commented on TIKA-2208:
------------------------------------
I agree with you on 2). That would give even more flexibility.
I'd like actually that anyone can simply create a Tika instance giving all the
supported documents and if any embedded content is not supported from this
list, then just skip it automatically.
BTW you were not slow at all responding! I really enjoyed the communication! <3

> Hi there
> We have decided to remove support for some formats when using Tika to extract
> text and metadata.
> We defined our list of Parsers:
> {code:java}
> private static final Parser PARSERS[] = new Parser[] {
> // documents
> new org.apache.tika.parser.html.HtmlParser(),
> new org.apache.tika.parser.rtf.RTFParser(),
> new org.apache.tika.parser.pdf.PDFParser(),
> new org.apache.tika.parser.txt.TXTParser(),
> new org.apache.tika.parser.microsoft.OfficeParser(),
> new org.apache.tika.parser.microsoft.OldExcelParser(),
> new org.apache.tika.parser.microsoft.ooxml.OOXMLParser(),
> new org.apache.tika.parser.odf.OpenDocumentParser(),
> new org.apache.tika.parser.iwork.IWorkPackageParser(),
> new org.apache.tika.parser.xml.DcXMLParser(),
> new org.apache.tika.parser.epub.EpubParser(),
> };
> private static final AutoDetectParser PARSER_INSTANCE = new
> AutoDetectParser(PARSERS);
> private static final Tika TIKA_INSTANCE = new
> Tika(PARSER_INSTANCE.getDetector(), PARSER_INSTANCE);
> {code}
> But when a MS Office Word document embeds another non supported document
> (Like a Visio Schema) an {{NoClassDefFoundError}} is raised.
> Would it be possible to catch such a case and throw in that case a
> {{TikaException}} so it behaves as an Exception and not as a Throwable?
