Package org.apache.commons.compress.archivers.zip

Class ZipFile

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Closeable, java.lang.AutoCloseable
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    ZipSecureFile
    public class ZipFile
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Closeable
    Replacement for java.util.ZipFile.

    This class adds support for file name encodings other than UTF-8 (which is required to work on ZIP files created by native zip tools and is able to skip a preamble like the one found in self extracting archives. Furthermore it returns instances of org.apache.commons.compress.archivers.zip.ZipArchiveEntry instead of java.util.zip.ZipEntry.

    It doesn't extend java.util.zip.ZipFile as it would have to reimplement all methods anyway. Like java.util.ZipFile, it uses SeekableByteChannel under the covers and supports compressed and uncompressed entries. As of Apache Commons Compress 1.3 it also transparently supports Zip64 extensions and thus individual entries and archives larger than 4 GB or with more than 65536 entries.

    The method signatures mimic the ones of java.util.zip.ZipFile, with a couple of exceptions:

    • There is no getName method.
    • entries has been renamed to getEntries.
    • getEntries and getEntry return org.apache.commons.compress.archivers.zip.ZipArchiveEntry instances.
    • close is allowed to throw IOException.

        Parameters:
        f - the archive.
        encoding - the encoding to use for file names, use null for the platform's default encoding

      • ZipFile

        public ZipFile​(java.io.File f,
               java.lang.String encoding,
               boolean useUnicodeExtraFields,
               boolean ignoreLocalFileHeader)
        throws java.io.IOException
        Opens the given file for reading, assuming the specified encoding for file names.

        By default the central directory record and all local file headers of the archive will be read immediately which may take a considerable amount of time when the archive is big. The ignoreLocalFileHeader parameter can be set to true which restricts parsing to the central directory. Unfortunately the local file header may contain information not present inside of the central directory which will not be available when the argument is set to true. This includes the content of the Unicode extra field, so setting ignoreLocalFileHeader to true means useUnicodeExtraFields will be ignored effectively. Also getRawInputStream(org.apache.commons.compress.archivers.zip.ZipArchiveEntry) is always going to return null if ignoreLocalFileHeader is true.

        Parameters:
        f - the archive.
        encoding - the encoding to use for file names, use null for the platform's default encoding
        useUnicodeExtraFields - whether to use InfoZIP Unicode Extra Fields (if present) to set the file names.
        ignoreLocalFileHeader - whether to ignore information stored inside the local file header (see the notes in this method's javadoc)
        Throws:
        java.io.IOException - if an error occurs while reading the file.
