  - MEDIA_TYPE_COMPARATOR
```
public static final java.util.Comparator<MediaType> MEDIA_TYPE_COMPARATOR
```
    Comparator for media types.
    x/y < x/* < \*\/*
  - MEDIA_TYPE_LIST_COMPARATOR
```
public static final java.util.Comparator<java.util.List<? extends MediaType>> MEDIA_TYPE_LIST_COMPARATOR
```
    Comparator for lists of media types.
    The least specific content type of each list is obtained and then compared using MEDIA_TYPE_COMPARATOR.
    Assumes each list is already ordered according to MEDIA_TYPE_COMPARATOR and therefore the least specific media type is at the end of the list.
  - GENERAL_MEDIA_TYPE
```
public static final MediaType GENERAL_MEDIA_TYPE
```
    The general media type corresponding to \*\/*.
  - GENERAL_MEDIA_TYPE_LIST
```
public static final java.util.List<MediaType> GENERAL_MEDIA_TYPE_LIST
```
    A singleton list containing the general media type.
  - GENERAL_ACCEPT_MEDIA_TYPE
```
public static final AcceptableMediaType GENERAL_ACCEPT_MEDIA_TYPE
```
    The general acceptable media type corresponding to \*\/*.
  - GENERAL_ACCEPT_MEDIA_TYPE_LIST
```
public static final java.util.List<AcceptableMediaType> GENERAL_ACCEPT_MEDIA_TYPE_LIST
```
    A singleton list containing the general acceptable media type.
  - QUALITY_SOURCE_MEDIA_TYPE_COMPARATOR
```
public static final java.util.Comparator<QualitySourceMediaType> QUALITY_SOURCE_MEDIA_TYPE_COMPARATOR
```
    Comparator for lists of quality source media types.
  - GENERAL_QUALITY_SOURCE_MEDIA_TYPE_LIST
```
public static final java.util.List<MediaType> GENERAL_QUALITY_SOURCE_MEDIA_TYPE_LIST
```

```
  - intersects
```
public static final boolean intersects(java.util.List<? extends MediaType> ml1,
                 java.util.List<? extends MediaType> ml2)
```
