You may have a look at the kdecore library or the Qt MIME factory classes. 
The .desktop files on your systems in the mimetypes folder should give you 
some templates for your own ones. Mind that you should stick to the icon file 
naming convention so the mime-type icon gets installed correctly (like 
hi16-mime-bla, look at kdelibs/icons for that :))
Otherwise you could ask on kde-devel for that. developer.kde.org should have 
some info on that topic as well in the KDE 2 Architecture documentation 
collection.

Hope that helps,
