<h1><a href="../classes/MIME/Types.html">MIME::Types</a> Change Log</h1>
<p>
Unless explicitly stated differently are all changes produced by Austin
Ziegler <mime-types@halostatue.ca>.
</p>
<h2><a href="../classes/MIME/Types.html">MIME::Types</a> 1.15</h2>
<ul>
<li>Removed lib/mime/type.rb to form a single <a
href="../classes/MIME/Types.html">MIME::Types</a> database source. It is
unlikely that one will ever need <a
href="../classes/MIME/Type.html">MIME::Type</a> without <a
href="../classes/MIME/Types.html">MIME::Types</a>.
</li>
<li>Re-synchronized the <a href="../classes/MIME.html">MIME</a> type list with
the sources, focusing primarily on the IANA list.
</li>
<li>Added more detailed source information for <a
href="../classes/MIME/Type.html">MIME::Type</a> objects.
</li>
<li>Changed <a href="../classes/MIME/Types.html">MIME::Types</a> from a module
to a class with a default instance. There should be no difference in usage.
</li>
<li>Removed MIME::Types::DATA_VERSION; it is now an attribute on the <a
href="../classes/MIME/Types.html">MIME::Types</a> instance.
</li>
<li>NOTE: Synchronization with the Perl version of <a
href="../classes/MIME/Types.html">MIME::Types</a> is no longer a priority
as of this release. The data format and information has changed.
</li>
<li>Removed MIME::Types.by_suffix and MIME::Types.by_mediatype.
</li>
</ul>
<h2><a href="../classes/MIME/Types.html">MIME::Types</a> 1.13.1</h2>
<ul>
<li>Fixed a problem with the installer running tests. This now works.
</li>
<li>Improved the implementation of MIME::Type.signature?
</li>
<li>Moved code around to use the class << self idiom instead of always
prepending the module/class name.
</li>
<li>Added two new best-guess implementations of functions found in Perl’s
<a href="../classes/MIME/Types.html">MIME::Types</a> implementation (1.13).
Do not rely on these until the purpose and implementation is stabilised.
</li>
<li>Updated the <a href="../classes/MIME.html">MIME</a> list to reflect changes
noted by Ville Skytt� <ville.skytta@iki.fi>.
</li>
<li>Added a new constant to <a
href="../classes/MIME/Types.html">MIME::Types</a>, DATA_VERSION. This will
allow the Ruby version number to be updated separately from the Perl
version while keeping the <a href="../classes/MIME.html">MIME</a> Type list
version in sync.
</li>
</ul>
<h2><a href="../classes/MIME/Types.html">MIME::Types</a> 1.13</h2>
<pre>
! WARNING: This version changes the API of MIME::Types !
! WARNING: This version is compatible with Ruby 1.8 and higher ONLY !
</pre>
<ul>
<li>Removed dependency on InstallPackage; offering 1.13 as either .tar.gz or
.gem.
</li>
<li>Split into two files, mime/type.rb and mime/types.rb. This will make
maintaining the list of changes easier.
</li>
<li>Changed the <a href="../classes/MIME/Type.html">MIME::Type</a> construction
API. Accepts only a single String argument (but does no named
type-checking) and yields self.
</li>
<li>Removed private methods init_extensions, init_encoding, and init_system and
replaced with extensions=, encoding=, and system=.
</li>
<li>Added default_encoding to return ‘quoted-printable’ or
‘base64’ depending on the media type of the <a
href="../classes/MIME.html">MIME</a> type.
</li>
<li>Added raw_media_type and raw_sub_type to provide the non-simplified
versions of the media type and subtype.
</li>
<li>Alternative constructors <a
href="../classes/MIME/Type.html#M000017">MIME::Type.from_array</a>, <a
href="../classes/MIME/Type.html#M000018">MIME::Type.from_hash</a>, and <a
href="../classes/MIME/Type.html#M000019">MIME::Type.from_mime_type</a>
added to compensate for the removal of named type checking in the original
constructor.
</li>
<li>Added to_str, to_a, and to_hash methods. The latter two will provide output
suitable for use in from_array and from_hash.
</li>
<li>Removed "binary" encoding and enforced the use of a valid
encoding string.
</li>
<li>Added system? returning true if the <a
href="../classes/MIME/Type.html">MIME::Type</a> is an OS-specific <a
href="../classes/MIME/Type.html">MIME::Type</a>.
</li>
<li>Added platform? returning true if the <a
href="../classes/MIME/Type.html">MIME::Type</a> is an OS-specific <a
href="../classes/MIME/Type.html">MIME::Type</a> for the current
RUBY_PLATFORM.
</li>
<li>Added like? returning true if the simplified type matches the other value
provided.
#<’application/x-excel’>.like?(‘application/excel’)
is true.
</li>
<li>Added complete? returning true if the <a
href="../classes/MIME/Type.html">MIME::Type</a> specifies an extension
list.
</li>
<li>Updated the <a href="../classes/MIME.html">MIME</a> type list to reflect
additions by Mark Overmeer for Perl’s <a
href="../classes/MIME/Types.html">MIME::Types</a> 1.12 and the official
IANA list as of 2004.04.06. A number of formerly "registered" <a
href="../classes/MIME.html">MIME</a> types are now no longer registered
(e.g., application/excel is now application/x-excel). This ensures that the
simplified type still works with applications, but does not report an
unregistered type as registered.
</li>
<li>Restored <a href="../classes/MIME.html">MIME</a> type list to Mark
Overmeer’s format to facilitate easy exchange between the two
projects.
</li>
<li>Added additional unit tests from Mark Overmeer’s 1.12 version.
</li>
</ul>
<h2><a href="../classes/MIME/Types.html">MIME::Types</a> 1.07</h2>
<ul>
<li>Changed version numbering to match Perl <a
href="../classes/MIME/Types.html">MIME::Types</a> 1.07.
</li>
<li>Re-synchronized with Mark Overmeer’s list in Perl PMIME::Types 1.07.
<pre>
- [NN Poster] updated the attributes for the PGP types.
</pre>
</li>
</ul>
<h2><a href="../classes/MIME/Types.html">MIME::Types</a> 1.005</h2>
<ul>
<li>Changed to Phil Thomson’s InstallPackage.
</li>
<li>Added several types from Perl <a
href="../classes/MIME/Types.html">MIME::Types</a> 1.005.
</li>
<li>Cleaned up data format; some data formats will show up with proper data
now.
</li>
</ul>
<h2><a href="../classes/MIME/Types.html">MIME::Types</a> 1.004</h2>
<ul>
<li>Updated to match Perl <a href="../classes/MIME/Types.html">MIME::Types</a>
1.004, links credited to Dan Puro. Adds new reference list to <a
href="http://www.indiana.edu/cgi-bin-local/mimetypes">www.indiana.edu/cgi-bin-local/mimetypes</a>
</li>
<li>Removed InvalidType and replaced with TypeError.
</li>
<li>Changed instances of type to class.
</li>
<li>Cleaned up how simplified versions are created.
</li>
</ul>
<h2><a href="../classes/MIME/Types.html">MIME::Types</a> 1.003</h2>
<ul>
<li>Initial release based on Perl <a
href="../classes/MIME/Types.html">MIME::Types</a> 1.003.
</li>
</ul>
