Except that URLConnection#getContentType doesn't even use MimeTable: http://grepcode.com/file/repository.grepcode.com/java/root/jdk/openjdk/7-b147/sun/net/www/URLConnection.java?av=f#147
URLConnection#guessContentTypeFromStream is what it's using: http://grepcode.com/file/repository.grepcode.com/java/root/jdk/openjdk/7-b147/java/net/URLConnection.java#URLConnection.guessContentTypeFromStream%28java.io.InputStream%29 Ugh - what a mess. That seems like a very arbitrary set of filetypes to test for (FlashPix?). It sees that the SVG file starts with <?xml…, so it returns application/xml - not wrong, per se - but not accurate enough. > On my > machine > System.err.println(URLConnection.getFileNameMap().getContentTypeFor("file.svg")); > prints null Same here. However, the following returns "application/xml" (test.svg must be an SVG file, of course): System.err.println(URLConnection.guessContentTypeFromStream(getClass().getResourceAsStream("test.svg"))); Thanks, Chris -- Chris Snyder Web Developer, BioLogos 616.328.5208 x203 biologos.org On Jul 30, 2013, at 13:52, Martin Grigorov <mgrigo...@apache.org> wrote: > This is nasty indeed! > > According to > http://grepcode.com/file/repository.grepcode.com/java/root/jdk/openjdk/7-b147/sun/net/www/MimeTable.java#MimeTable > the > mime types are loaded from mailcap files. > See "man update-mime" > > > On Tue, Jul 30, 2013 at 7:40 PM, Chris Snyder > <chris.sny...@biologos.org>wrote: > >> However, just above that (line 122) it gets the contentType from the >> URLConnection, which returns "application/xml".
