One of the most common usages of MIME is to encode an e-mail message. The MIME
type of the encoded message is an example of a {\it message parameter}. These
\begin{verbatim}
// provide the message parameters for the MIME type manager
-class MailMessageParamaters : public wxFileType::MessageParameters
+class MailMessageParameters : public wxFileType::MessageParameters
{
public:
- MailMessageParamaters(const wxString& filename,
+ MailMessageParameters(const wxString& filename,
const wxString& mimetype)
: wxFileType::MessageParameters(filename, mimetype)
{
\end{verbatim}
Now you only need to create an object of this class and pass it to, for example,
-\helpref{GetOpenCommand}{wxfiletypegetopencommand} like this:
+\rtfsp\helpref{GetOpenCommand}{wxfiletypegetopencommand} like this:
\begin{verbatim}
wxString command;
{
// we don't know how to handle such files...
}

\membersection{wxFileType::GetMimeType}\label{wxfiletypegetmimetype}
-\func{bool}{GetMimeType}{\param{wxString *}{mimeType}}
+
+\func{bool}{GetMimeType}{\param{wxString*}{ mimeType}}
If the function returns TRUE, the string pointed to by {\it mimeType} is filled
with full MIME type specification for this file type: for example, "text/plain".
\membersection{wxFileType::GetExtensions}\label{wxfiletypegetextensions}
-\func{bool}{GetExtensions}{\param{wxArrayString \&}{extensions}}
+
+\func{bool}{GetExtensions}{\param{wxArrayString\&}{ extensions}}
If the function returns TRUE, the array {\it extensions} is filled
with all extensions associated with this file type: for example, it may

\membersection{wxFileType::GetIcon}\label{wxfiletypegeticon}
-\func{bool}{GetIcon}{\param{wxIcon *}{icon}}

If the function returns TRUE, the icon associated with this file type will be
created and assigned to the {\it icon} parameter.

\membersection{wxFileType::GetDescription}\label{wxfiletypegetdescription}
-\func{bool}{GetDescription}{\param{wxString *}{desc}}
+
+\func{bool}{GetDescription}{\param{wxString*}{ desc}}
If the function returns TRUE, the string pointed to by {\it desc} is filled
with a brief description for this file type: for example, "text document" for
the "text/plain" MIME type.

-\func{bool}{GetOpenCommand}{\param{wxString *}{command},\param{MessageParameters \&}{params}}

+\func{bool}{GetOpenCommand}{\param{wxString*}{ command}, \param{MessageParameters\&}{ params}}
If the function returns TRUE, the string pointed to by {\it command} is filled
with the command which must be executed (see \helpref{wxExecute}{wxexecute}) in
retrieved from \helpref{MessageParameters}{wxfiletypemessageparameters} class.

-\func{bool}{GetPrintCommand}{\param{wxString *}{command},\param{MessageParameters \&}{params}}

retrieved from \helpref{MessageParameters}{wxfiletypemessageparameters} class.

-\func{static wxString}{ExpandCommand}{\param{const wxString \&}{command},\param{MessageParameters \&}{params}}

+\func{static wxString}{ExpandCommand}{\param{const wxString\&}{ command}, \param{MessageParameters\&}{ params}}
This function is primarly intended for GetOpenCommand and GetPrintCommand
usage but may be also used by the application directly if, for example, you want
to use some non default command to open the file.
The function replaces all occurences of

\twocolitem{\%t}{the MIME type}

using the MessageParameters object you pass to it.
If there is no '\%s' in the command string (and the string is not empty), it is
Unlike all other functions of this class, there is no error return for this
function.
