\class QWinMime
\inmodule QtWinExtras
\brief The QWinMime class maps open-standard MIME to Window Clipboard formats.
Qt's drag-and-drop and clipboard facilities use the MIME standard.
On X11, this maps trivially to the Xdnd protocol, but on Windows
although some applications use MIME types to describe clipboard
formats, others use arbitrary non-standardized naming conventions,
or unnamed built-in formats of Windows.
By instantiating subclasses of QWinMime that provide conversions
between Windows Clipboard and MIME formats, you can convert
proprietary clipboard formats to MIME formats.
Qt has predefined support for the following Windows Clipboard formats:
\table
\header \li Windows Format \li Equivalent MIME type
\row \li \c CF_UNICODETEXT \li \c text/plain
\row \li \c CF_TEXT \li \c text/plain
\row \li \c CF_DIB \li \c{image/xyz}, where \c xyz is
a \l{QImageWriter::supportedImageFormats()}{Qt image format}
\row \li \c CF_HDROP \li \c text/uri-list
\row \li \c CF_INETURL \li \c text/uri-list
\row \li \c CF_HTML \li \c text/html
\endtable
An example use of this class would be to map the Windows Metafile
clipboard format (\c CF_METAFILEPICT) to and from the MIME type
\c{image/x-wmf}. This conversion might simply be adding or removing
a header, or even just passing on the data. See \l{Drag and Drop}
for more information on choosing and definition MIME types.
You can check if a MIME type is convertible using canConvertFromMime() and
can perform conversions with convertToMime() and convertFromMime().
