Method Details
- pack
  
  protected void pack()
  
  perform the GZip compression operation.
  
  Specified by:
  
  pack in class Pack
- supportsNonFileResources
  
  protected boolean supportsNonFileResources()
  
  Whether this task can deal with non-file resources.
  This implementation returns true only if this task is <gzip>. Any subclass of this class that also wants to support non-file resources needs to override this method. We need to do so for backwards compatibility reasons since we can't expect subclasses to support resources.
  
  Overrides:
  
  supportsNonFileResources in class Pack
  
  Returns:
  
  true if this case supports non file resources.
