    • Constructor Detail

      • MimeType

        public MimeType()
        This constructor is used only by the web-services.

      • MimeType

        public MimeType​(String mimeTypeString,
                String extension)
        This constructor allows to create a new MimeType related to given file extension. Be careful, if the file extension has already an associated MimeType then this relation will be lost.
        Parameters:
        mimeTypeString - is a string identifier composed of two parts: a "type" and a "subtype"
        extension - to be defined. Example: "txt", note that there is no point before the extension name.
