JAF links together beans and internet standards for specifying MIME types and how MIME types are processed. It provides a means to associate data of a given MIME type with bean actions operating on that data.
Standard mime.types files are parsed by the JAF MIME
handling classes to work out the MIME types available on the local
system.
Standard mailcap files (defined in RFC1524) are parsed by
mail capability handling classes to work out what beans should be linked
to what MIME types.
