Package org.apache.tools.zip

Class ZipFile

java.lang.Object

org.apache.tools.zip.ZipFile

All Implemented Interfaces:

Closeable, AutoCloseable

public class ZipFile
extends Object
implements 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.tools.zip.ZipEntry 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 RandomAccessFile under the covers and supports compressed and uncompressed entries. As of Apache Ant 1.9.0 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.tools.zip.ZipEntry instances.
• close is allowed to throw IOException.

ZipFile

public ZipFile(File f)
        throws IOException

Opens the given file for reading, assuming the platform's native encoding for file names.

Parameters:

f - the archive.

Throws:

IOException - if an error occurs while reading the file.

ZipFile

public ZipFile(String name)
        throws IOException

Opens the given file for reading, assuming the platform's native encoding for file names.

Parameters:

name - name of the archive.

Throws:

IOException - if an error occurs while reading the file.

ZipFile

public ZipFile(String name,
 String encoding)
        throws IOException

Opens the given file for reading, assuming the specified encoding for file names, scanning unicode extra fields.

Parameters:

name - name of the archive.

encoding - the encoding to use for file names, use null for the platform's default encoding

Throws:

IOException - if an error occurs while reading the file.

ZipFile

public ZipFile(File f,
 String encoding)
        throws IOException

Opens the given file for reading, assuming the specified encoding for file names and scanning for unicode extra fields.

Parameters:

f - the archive.

encoding - the encoding to use for file names, use null for the platform's default encoding

Throws:

IOException - if an error occurs while reading the file.

ZipFile

public ZipFile(File f,
 String encoding,
 boolean useUnicodeExtraFields)
        throws IOException

Opens the given file for reading, assuming the specified encoding for file names.

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.

Throws:

IOException - if an error occurs while reading the file.

Method Details

getEncoding

public String getEncoding()

The encoding to use for filenames and the file comment.

Returns:

null if using the platform's default character encoding.

close

public void close()
           throws IOException

Closes the archive.

Specified by:

close in interface AutoCloseable

Specified by:

close in interface Closeable

Throws:

IOException - if an error occurs closing the archive.

closeQuietly

public static void closeQuietly(ZipFile zipfile)

close a zipfile quietly; throw no io fault, do nothing on a null parameter

Parameters:

zipfile - file to close, can be null

getEntries

public Enumeration<ZipEntry> getEntries()

Returns all entries.

Entries will be returned in the same order they appear within the archive's central directory.

Returns:

all entries as ZipEntry instances

getEntriesInPhysicalOrder

public Enumeration<ZipEntry> getEntriesInPhysicalOrder()

Returns all entries in physical order.

Entries will be returned in the same order their contents appear within the archive.

Returns:

all entries as ZipEntry instances

Since:

Ant 1.9.0

getEntry

public ZipEntry getEntry(String name)

Returns a named entry - or null if no entry by that name exists.

If multiple entries with the same name exist the first entry in the archive's central directory by that name is returned.

Parameters:

name - name of the entry.

Returns:

the ZipEntry corresponding to the given name - or null if not present.

getEntries

public Iterable<ZipEntry> getEntries(String name)

Returns all named entries in the same order they appear within the archive's central directory.

Parameters:

the Iterable<ZipEntry> corresponding to the given name

Since:

1.9.2

canReadEntryData

public boolean canReadEntryData(ZipEntry ze)

getName

public String getName()

finalize

protected void finalize()
                 throws Throwable
