getParser

public static Parser getParser(String filename)

Method containing the lookup logic

Parameters:

filename - name of the file

Returns:

the right parser for the given file name

getExtensions

public static Set<String> getExtensions()

getParsers

public static Map<String,Parser> getParsers()

setAliases

public static void setAliases(String ext,
 String[] aliases)

Adds new aliases for the specified extension.

Each alias is saved as property parser.alias.<ext>
example: parser.alias.odt = test, acme
In this case an extension 'test' will be treated as 'odt'

Parameters:

ext - Must be one of the registered extensions

aliases - Array of extension aliases (eg. test, acme ...)
