Package net.java.truevfs.comp.zip Description

Provides classes for reading and writing ZIP files.

The classes in this package read and write ZIP files according to a subset of PKWARE's ZIP File Format Specification, Version 6.3.2 from September 28, 2007. The subset has been selected in order to achieve the following objectives:

Full interoperability with ZIP files read or written by the package java.util.zip of Oracle's Java SE 7 implementation.
Support for appending to existing ZIP files.
Support for recovering lost entries when reading a ZIP file.
Support for reading and writing encrypted or authenticated ZIP entries. Currently, only the WinZip AES Specification is supported. You need to implement the interface WinZipAesParameters and inject it for reading and writing to the ZipFile.setCryptoParameters(ZipCryptoParameters) and ZipOutputStream.setCryptoParameters(ZipCryptoParameters) classes.
Support for reading and writing BZIP2 compressed ZIP entries.
Support for selectable character sets, in particular IBM Code Page 437 (alias IBM PC) for PKZIP compatibility and UTF-8 for Java Archive (JAR) compatibility. Note that using any other character set except CP437 or UTF-8 is strongly discouraged because it will result in interoperability issues with third party tools, especially when sharing archive files between different locales!
Support for reading and writing external file attributes.
Support for reading and writing ZIP64 extensions with the following restrictions:
1. The maximum file size is Long.MAX_VALUE.
2. The maximum number of entries in the Central Directory is Integer.MAX_VALUE.
3. The offsets in ZIP64 files must respect a preamble if present, i.e. they must be exact. This is in contrast to ZIP32 files where the offsets do not need to respect a preamble if present. Preambles are primarily used to contain self extracting (SFX) executable code.
ZipFile supports reading archive data from a SeekableByteChannel, which allows to read archive data from composite data sources like e.g. RAES encrypted ZIP files directly without the need to decrypt them to a temporary file first.
