public boolean match(ContentType cType)
primaryType and 
 subType . The parameters of both operands
 are ignored. 
 For example, this method will return true when
 comparing the ContentTypes for "text/plain"
 and "text/plain; charset=foobar".
 If the subType of either operand is the special
 character '*', then the subtype is ignored during the match. 
 For example, this method will return true when 
 comparing the ContentTypes for "text/plain" 
 and "text/*"
