    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/DNA-402?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12467265#action_12467265 ] 

Randall Hauch commented on DNA-402:
-----------------------------------

The previous mechanism for specifying the extensions for MIME types was a property file. This format is not the conventional way systems typically have this information formatted; usually it is a *nix-style tab-delimited file with the mime type followed by whitespace (usually tab) followed by any applicable extensions.  Therefore, the property-file approach was changed to support these *nix-style files directly, though property file formats are still allowed (delimited by '=' rather than whitespace).  A regular expression is used to process each line, so the code works with both file formats.  Changed the name of the resource/classpath file used for the defaults from "MimeTypes.properties" to "mime.types", and changed this file accordingly.

> The Apache web server has a file with many common MIME types and the file extensions commonly used: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk/docs/conf/mime.types
> Check that we have these registered.  Perhaps we should have a class that generates the properties file from this (widely-used) format.
