Member Enumeration Documentation

MediaType

enum MimeType::MediaType

Top-level media types.

Enumerator
APPLICATION	Application type.
AUDIO	Audio type.
IMAGE	Image type.
MESSAGE	Message type.
MULTIPART	Multipart type.
TEXT	Text type.
VIDEO	Video type.
EXTENSION	Unspecified type.
UNINITIALIZED	Used internally.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

MimeType() [1/4]

MimeType::MimeType

(

)

Initializes the mime type as "application/octet-stream".

MimeType() [2/4]

MimeType::MimeType ( const String &  type, const String &  subtype  )

noexcept

Initializes the mime object with specified values. Use the isValid() method to validate against grammar.

Parameters

type	The type of the mime object (e.g. image).
subtype	The subtype of the mime object (e.g. jpeg).

MimeType() [3/4]

MimeType::MimeType	(	MediaType	mediaType,
		const String &	subtype
	)

Initializes the mime object with specified values. Use the isValid() method to validate against grammar. The media type must be APPLICATION, AUDIO, IMAGE, MESSAGE, MULTIPART, TEXT, or VIDEO. OutOfDomain is raised for all other values.

Parameters

mediaType	The media type of the mime object (e.g. VIDEO).
subtype	The subtype of the mime object (e.g. mpeg).

MimeType() [4/4]

MimeType::MimeType

(

const String &

value

)

Initializes the mime object with specified values. Only raises InvalidFormat is '/' is missing. Use the isValid() method to validate against grammar.

Parameters

value

The string representation of the mime object (e.g. "text/html").

Member Function Documentation

getMediaType()

MediaType MimeType::getMediaType ( ) const

noexcept

Returns the top-level type.

Returns

EXTENSION if the media type is unknown.

getSubtype()

const String& MimeType::getSubtype ( ) const

inlinenoexcept

Returns the subtype.

getType()

const String& MimeType::getType ( ) const

inlinenoexcept

Returns the type.

isValid()

bool MimeType::isValid ( ) const

noexcept

Returns true if the type and subtype complies with the grammar described in RFC 2045.

matches()

bool MimeType::matches ( MediaType  mediaType, const String &  subtype  ) const

noexcept

Returns true if the media type and subtype matches.

Returns

Always false if specified type is EXTENSION.

operator!=()

bool MimeType::operator!= ( const MimeType &  value ) const

inlinenoexcept

Returns false if the objects are different.

operator=()

MimeType& MimeType::operator= ( const MimeType &  assign )

noexcept

Assignment of MIME type to MIME type.

operator==()

bool MimeType::operator== ( const MimeType &  value ) const

noexcept

Returns true if the objects are equal.
