SVK::MimeDetect(3)                   User Contributed Perl Documentation                  SVK::MimeDetect(3)



NAME
       SVK::MimeDetect - interface for MIME type detection algorithms

DESCRIPTION
       This defines an interface for MIME type detection algorithms.  A MIME type detection module doesn't
       need to inherit from this module, but it does need to provide the same interface.  See "INTERFACE"
       for details.

INTERFACE
       new

       "new" should return a new object which implements the "checktype_filename" method described below.
       The default implementation simply returns an empty, blessed hash.

       checktype_filename

       Given a single, absolute filename as an argument, this method should return a scalar with the MIME
       type of the file or "undef" if there is an error.
