    \class QMimeData
    \inmodule QtCore
    \brief The QMimeData class provides a container for data that records information
    about its MIME type.
 
    QMimeData is used to describe information that can be stored in
    the \l{QClipboard}{clipboard}, and transferred via the \l{drag
    and drop} mechanism. QMimeData objects associate the data that
    they hold with the corresponding MIME types to ensure that
    information can be safely transferred between applications, and
    copied around within the same application.
 
    QMimeData objects are usually created using \c new and supplied
    to QDrag or QClipboard objects. This is to enable Qt to manage
    the memory that they use.
 
    A single QMimeData object can store the same data using several
    different formats at the same time. The formats() function
    returns a list of the available formats in order of preference.
    The data() function returns the raw data associated with a MIME
    type, and setData() allows you to set the data for a MIME type.
 
    For the most common MIME types, QMimeData provides convenience
    functions to access the data:
 
    \table
    \header \li Tester       \li Getter       \li Setter           \li MIME Types
    \row    \li hasText()    \li text()       \li setText()        \li \c text/plain
    \row    \li hasHtml()    \li html()       \li setHtml()        \li \c text/html
    \row    \li hasUrls()    \li urls()       \li setUrls()        \li \c text/uri-list
    \row    \li hasImage()   \li imageData()  \li setImageData()   \li \c image/ *
    \row    \li hasColor()   \li colorData()  \li setColorData()   \li \c application/x-color
    \endtable
 
    For example, if your write a widget that accepts URL drags, you
    would end up writing code like this:
 
    \snippet code/src_corelib_kernel_qmimedata.cpp 0
 
    There are three approaches for storing custom data in a QMimeData
    object:
 
    \list 1
    \li  Custom data can be stored directly in a QMimeData object as a
        QByteArray using setData(). For example:
 
        \snippet code/src_corelib_kernel_qmimedata.cpp 1
 
    \li  We can subclass QMimeData and reimplement hasFormat(),
        formats(), and retrieveData().
 
    \li  If the drag and drop operation occurs within a single
        application, we can subclass QMimeData and add extra data in
        it, and use a qobject_cast() in the receiver's drop event
        handler. For example:
 
        \snippet code/src_corelib_kernel_qmimedata.cpp 2
    \endlist
 
    \section1 Platform-Specific MIME Types
 
    On Windows, formats() will also return custom formats available
    in the MIME data, using the \c{x-qt-windows-mime} subtype to
    indicate that they represent data in non-standard formats.
    The formats will take the following form:
 
    \snippet code/src_corelib_kernel_qmimedata.cpp 3
 
    The following are examples of custom MIME types:
 
    \snippet code/src_corelib_kernel_qmimedata.cpp 4
 
    The \c value declaration of each format describes the way in which the
    data is encoded.
 
    In some cases (e.g. dropping multiple email attachments), multiple data
    values are available. They can be accessed by adding an \c index value:
 
    \snippet code/src_corelib_kernel_qmimedata.cpp 8
 
    On Windows, the MIME format does not always map directly to the
    clipboard formats. Qt provides QWindowsMimeConverter to map clipboard
    formats to open-standard MIME formats. Similarly, the
    QUtiMimeConverter maps MIME to Uniform Type Identifiers on macOS and iOS.
