Detailed Description

Abstract interface for classes that can provide MIME type information.

This class defines a simple interface for objects that can determine and provide MIME type strings. It serves as a base class for various MIME detection and source identification implementations within the audio tools framework.

Classes implementing this interface should provide logic to determine the appropriate MIME type based on their specific context (e.g., file content, stream headers, file extensions, etc.).

Note

This is a pure virtual interface class and cannot be instantiated directly.

mime()

virtual const char * mime ( )

pure virtual

Get the MIME type string.

Pure virtual method that must be implemented by derived classes to return the appropriate MIME type string for the current context.

Returns

const char* Pointer to a null-terminated string containing the MIME type. The string should follow standard MIME type format (e.g., "audio/mpeg"). Returns nullptr if MIME type cannot be determined.

Note

The returned pointer should remain valid for the lifetime of the object or until the next call to this method.

Implemented in MimeDetector, and AbstractURLStream.
