o MimeType 
 public MimeType(String spec) throws MimeTypeFormatException
Construct MimeType object for the given string. The string should be the representation of the type. This methods tries to be compliant with HTTP1.1, p 15, although it is not (because of quoted-text not being accepted). FIXME

o MimeType 
 public MimeType(String type,
                 String subtype,
                 String pnames[],
                 String pvalues[])
o MimeType 
 public MimeType(String type,
                 String subtype)

Methods

o match 
 public int match(MimeType other)
How good the given MimeType matches the receiver of the method ? This method returns a matching level among:
MATCH_TYPE
Types match,
MATCH_SPECIFIC_TYPE
Types match exactly,
MATCH_SUBTYPE
Types match, subtypes matches too
MATCH_SPECIFIC_SUBTYPE
Types match, subtypes matches exactly

Parameters:
other - The other MimeType to match against ourself.
o toString 
 public String toString()
A printable representation of this MimeType. The printed representation is guaranteed to be parseable by the String constructor.

Overrides:
toString in class Object
o hasParameter 
 public boolean hasParameter(String name)
Does this MIME type has some value for the given parameter ?

Parameters:
name - The parameter to check.
Returns:
True if this parameter has a value, false otherwise.
o getType 
 public String getType()
Get the major type of this mime type.

Returns:
The major type, encoded as a String.
o getSubtype 
 public String getSubtype()
Get the minor type (subtype) of this mime type.

Returns:
The minor or subtype encoded as a String.
o getParameterValue 
 public String getParameterValue(String name)
