libsharedmime is a library for reading freedesktop.org's shared MIME database.
Installation:
All that should be required to install this is:
make
make install
Which will put 'libsharedmime1.so' into /usr/local/lib and 'mime-types.h' into /usr/local/include.
ToDo:
Fix the makefile to have proper dependency handling.
Write a ./configure script.
Write some docs.
Finish the other API functions (what do they actually do?).
Test some more. "Works for me".
What's New in This Release:
· Added code to check for a text file if the content lookup fails, if it matches it gets a 'text/plain' type.
· Stopped the content lookup being performed on directories.
· Fixed a bug in the magic matching code that caused valid matches to fail. This means that some files will now return the correct mime type as opposed to a default "not found" type.
