[jira] [Created] (TIKA-917) Parser for executables (metadata)
Nick Burch created TIKA-917:
-------------------------------
Summary: Parser for executables (metadata)
Key: TIKA-917
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-917
Project: Tika
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: parser
Affects Versions: 1.1
Reporter: Nick Burch
Based on the investigations for TIKA-913, it should be fairly easy to implement a parser to extract metadata from executables (PE and ELF). This could give us a similar level of information to that returned by file, eg architecture, platform, endian-ness etc

[jira] [Commented] (TIKA-917) Parser for executables (metadata)

Nick Burch commented on TIKA-917:
---------------------------------
I've made a start on this in r1337962. Only a few common forms are supported, not all, and not all the ones we have test files for
I'm not sure if the way of handling the metadata keys and options is ideal though (they're done inline in the parser, with lots of constants), feedback would be helpful before I go about filling in the remaining gaps!
