Detailed Description
This class or method is obsolete, it is provided for compatibility only. Use KMimeType::findByContent() instead May be removed in KDE 4.0 Determine auto-magically the type of file, not only by using its extension, but also by reading its contents.Unless specified otherwise, KMimeMagic uses $KDEDIR/share/mimelnk/magic for this purpose.
To make KMimeMagic restore the 'atime' of a file after it opened it, add its directory in kmimemagicrc like: [Settings] atimeDirs=/tmp,/var/tmp,/home/dfaure/tmp This isn't done by default because it changes the 'ctime'. See kmimemagic.cpp for a full discussion on this issue.
The basic usage of KMimeMagic is :
- Get a pointer to it, using KMimeMagic::self().
- Use it for any file or buffer you want, using one of the three
find
...Type() methods.

Enable/Disable follow-links. (Default is disabled.) Definition at line 2142 of file kmimemagic.cpp. |
|
Try to find a MimeType for the given file. If no special MimeType is found, the default MimeType is returned. This function looks at the content of the file.

|
Same functionality as above, except data is not read from a file. Instead a buffer can be supplied which is examined.

|
Same functionality as findBufferType() but with additional capability of distinguishing between C-headers and C-Source. For this purpose this function looks at the extension of the filename. This means that 'filename' can be a filename on some FTP server, too.

Returns a pointer to the unique KMimeMagic instance in this process.
