SRS 55 — The WARC validator tool specified in SRS 31-32 shall be extended
to optionally make use of the Jhove command line API to identify and
validate WARC files, i.e. given a specific WARC file, this command shall be
able to identify the file as a WARC file, validate the level of compliance
with a given standard in terms of well-formedness and validity, and finally
to characterise the file by extracting and displaying significant
properties contained in the file.

WARC Tools now includes contrib/java and contrib/jhove.  Today I compiled both 
of
these up, then followed the instructions in contrib/jhove/install for 
downloading
jhove and patching from the warc-tools directory to build a version of Jhove 
with
WARC support.

I used the command-line tool to validate a WARC file (and to show several other 
files
were or were ot WARC files).

Anyway, while we do not have a WARC module "in jhove" we do have a way to 
compile
WARC support into Jhove 1.1, which is probably as good as we can hope to get at 
this
point.

I suggest we declare this done.

PS: I am not a java developer, so had a few problems getting this all to run. 
For
example, jhove would not compile out of the box due to a non-warc-tools related
compile error, which I solved by commenting out the "pop" method that caused 
the error.
