Let’s take a look at how to use Tika in your .Net projects.…

Using the Tika Java Library In Your .Net Application With IKVM

Tika On DotNet   This may sound scary and heretical but did you know it is possible to leverage Java libraries from .Net applications with no TCP sockets or web services getting caught in the crossfire? Let me introduce you to IKVM, which is frankly magic:   IKVM.NET is an implementation of Java for Mono and the Microsoft .NET Framework. It includes the following components: A Java Virtual Machine implemented in .NET A .NET implementation of the Java class libraries Tools that enable Java and .NET interoperability   Using IKVM we have been able to successfully integrate our Dovetail Seeker search application with the Tika text extraction library implemented in Java. With Tika we can easily pull text out of rich documents from many supported formats. Why Tika?  Because there is nothing comparable in the .Net world as…
