sortBySpecificity
@Deprecated(since="6.0", forRemoval=true) public static void sortBySpecificity(List<MediaType> mediaTypes) Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version.As of 6.0, in favor ofMimeTypeUtils.sortBySpecificity(List)
Sorts the given list ofMediaType
objects by specificity.Given two media types:
- if either media type has a wildcard type, then the media type without the wildcard is ordered before the other.
- if the two media types have different types, then they are considered equal and remain their current order.
- if either media type has a wildcard subtype, then the media type without the wildcard is sorted before the other.
- if the two media types have different subtypes, then they are considered equal and remain their current order.
- if the two media types have different quality value, then the media type with the highest quality value is ordered before the other.
- if the two media types have a different amount of parameters, then the media type with the most parameters is ordered before the other.
For example:
audio/basic < audio/* < */*
audio/* < audio/*;q=0.7; audio/*;q=0.3
audio/basic;level=1 < audio/basic
audio/basic == text/html
audio/basic == audio/wave
