      • subtype

        public String subtype()
        Returns a specific media subtype, such as "plain" or "png", "mpeg", "mp4" or "xml".

      • charset

      • charset

        public Charset charset​(Charset defaultValue)
        Returns the charset of this media type, or defaultValue if this media type doesn't specify a charset.

      • toString

        public String toString()
        Returns the encoded media type, like "text/plain; charset=utf-8", appropriate for use in a Content-Type header.
        Overrides:
        toString in class Object
        Returns:
        a printable representation of this object.

      • equals

        public boolean equals​(Object o)
        Description copied from class: Object
        Compares this instance with the specified object and indicates if they are equal. In order to be equal, o must represent the same object as this instance using a class-specific comparison. The general contract is that this comparison should be reflexive, symmetric, and transitive. Also, no object reference other than null is equal to null.

        The default implementation returns true only if this == o. See Writing a correct equals method if you intend implementing your own equals method.

        The general contract for the equals and Object.hashCode() methods is that if equals returns true for any two objects, then hashCode() must return the same value for these objects. This means that subclasses of Object usually override either both methods or neither of them.

        Overrides:
        equals in class Object
        Parameters:
        o - the object to compare this instance with.
        Returns:
        true if the specified object is equal to this Object; false otherwise.
        See Also:
        Object.hashCode()

      • hashCode

        public int hashCode()
        Description copied from class: Object
        Returns an integer hash code for this object. By contract, any two objects for which Object.equals(java.lang.Object) returns true must return the same hash code value. This means that subclasses of Object usually override both methods or neither method.

        Note that hash values must not change over time unless information used in equals comparisons also changes.

        See Writing a correct hashCode method if you intend implementing your own hashCode method.

        Overrides:
        hashCode in class Object
        Returns:
        this object's hash code.

        Object.equals(java.lang.Object)
