Attributes

Remarks

Create a new NDEF Record containing MIME data.

Use this method to encode MIME-typed data into an NDEF Record, such as "text/plain", or "image/jpeg".

The mimeType parameter will be normalized with Intent#normalizeMimeType to follow Android best practices for intent filtering, for example to force lower-case. However the unchecked exception IllegalArgumentException may be thrown if the mimeType parameter has serious problems, for example if it is empty, so always catch this exception if you are passing user-generated data into this method.

For efficiency, This method might not make an internal copy of the mimeData byte array, so take care not to modify the mimeData byte array while still using the returned NdefRecord.
