["Grant Ingersoll (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Grant Ingersoll updated TIKA-93:
--------------------------------

    Attachment: TIKA-93.patch

Here is a _very_ early stage patch that creates a JavaOCR parser.  It is not integrated into any of the other parsers, yet.

I also added Jacoco code coverage to the Parent POM so that we can now generate coverage reports.  For example:
# mvn verify  (from the top level)

Or, after running mvn test
# mvn jacoco:check

Once done, check the target/site/jacoco directory to see the reports.

Not sure on Tika workflow for JIRA, but if someone wants to Assign this Issue to me, I'll take it the next few steps.

> I don't know of any decent open source pure Java OCR libraries, but there are command line OCR tools like Tesseract (http://code.google.com/p/tesseract-ocr/) that could be invoked by Tika to extract text content (where available) from image files.
