Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
I_CmsExtractionResult	extractText(byte[] content) Extracts the text and meta information from the given binary document.

Method Detail

extractText

I_CmsExtractionResult extractText(byte[] content)
                           throws java.lang.Exception

Extracts the text and meta information from the given binary document.

The encoding of the input stream is either not required (the document type may have one common default encoding) or the extractor is able to divine the encoding from the provided binary array automatically.

Delivers is the same result as calling extractText(byte[], String) when String == null.

Parameters:

content - the binary content of the document to extract the text from

Returns:

the extracted text

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - if the text extration fails

extractText

I_CmsExtractionResult extractText(byte[] content,
                                  java.lang.String encoding)
                           throws java.lang.Exception

Extracts the text and meta information from the given binary document, using the specified content encoding.

The encoding is a hint for the text extractor, if the value given is null then the text extractor should try to figure out the encoding itself.

Parameters:

content - the binary content of the document to extract the text from

encoding - the encoding to use

Returns:

the extracted text

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - if the text extration fails

extractText

I_CmsExtractionResult extractText(java.io.InputStream in)
                           throws java.lang.Exception

Extracts the text and meta information from the document on the input stream.

The encoding of the input stream is either not required (the document type may have one common default encoding) or the extractor is able to divine the encoding from the provided input stream automatically.

Delivers is the same result as calling extractText(InputStream, String) when String == null.

Parameters:

in - the input stream for the document to extract the text from

Returns:

the extracted text and meta information

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - if the text extration fails

extractText

I_CmsExtractionResult extractText(java.io.InputStream in,
                                  java.lang.String encoding)
                           throws java.lang.Exception

Extracts the text and meta information from the document on the input stream, using the specified content encoding.

The encoding is a hint for the text extractor, if the value given is null then the text extractor should try to figure out the encoding itself.

Parameters:

in - the input stream for the document to extract the text from

encoding - the encoding to use

Returns:

the extracted text and meta information

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - if the text extration fails
