Gtk2::FileFilter by mime type

[Zettai Muri <zettaimuri ymail com>]

Hi All,

I am trying to use the following filters:

my $sound_filter = Gtk2::FileFilter->new;
$sound_filter->add_mime_type("audio/*");
    
my $image_filter = Gtk2::FileFilter->new;
$image_filter->add_mime_type("image/*");

Because I read here: 
http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/stable/gtk-gtkfilefilter.html#gtk-file-filter-add-mime-type that 
'GtkFileFilter allows wildcards for the
subtype of a mime type, so you can e.g. filter for image/*.'

Is this also possible with the Perl bindings?

At the moment, when my file chooser opens and I navigate to a directory where I have some jpgs I don't see 
any files.

If I change my filter to:
$image_filter->add_pattern("*.jpg");

I can see the files.

Could someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong when using add_mime_type("image/*")?

Many thanks,

ZM.
