ZipOutputStream (Apache Ant API)
Description: declaration: package: org.apache.tools.zip, class: ZipOutputStream

Package org.apache.tools.zip

# Class ZipOutputStream

java.lang.Object
java.io.OutputStream
java.io.FilterOutputStream
org.apache.tools.zip.ZipOutputStream

All Implemented Interfaces:
  `java.io.Closeable`, `java.io.Flushable`, `java.lang.AutoCloseable`

    public class ZipOutputStream
    extends java.io.FilterOutputStream

Reimplementation of `java.util.zip.ZipOutputStream` that does handle the extended functionality of this package, especially internal/external file attributes and extra fields with different layouts for local file data and central directory entries.

This class will try to use `RandomAccessFile` when you know that the output is going to go to a file.

If RandomAccessFile cannot be used, this implementation will use a Data Descriptor to store size and CRC information for `DEFLATED` entries, this means, you don't need to calculate them yourself. Unfortunately this is not possible for the `STORED` method, here setting the CRC and uncompressed size information is required before `putNextEntry` can be called.

As of Apache Ant 1.9.0 it transparently supports Zip64 extensions and thus individual entries and archives larger than 4 GB or with more than 65536 entries in most cases but explicit control is provided via `setUseZip64(org.apache.tools.zip.Zip64Mode)`. If the stream can not user RandomAccessFile and you try to write a ZipEntry of unknown size then Zip64 extensions will be disabled by default.

    public void setFallbackToUTF8​(boolean b)
    Whether to fall back to UTF and the language encoding flag if the file name cannot be encoded using the specified encoding.

    Defaults to false.

    Parameters:
      `b` - boolean

  - ### setUseZip64

    public void setUseZip64​(Zip64Mode mode)
    Whether Zip64 extensions will be used.

    When setting the mode to `Never`, `putNextEntry(org.apache.tools.zip.ZipEntry)`, `closeEntry()`, `finish()` or `close()` may throw a `Zip64RequiredException` if the entry's size or the total size of the archive exceeds 4GB or there are more than 65536 entries inside the archive. Any archive created in this mode will be readable by implementations that don't support Zip64.

    When setting the mode to `Always`, Zip64 extensions will be used for all entries. Any archive created in this mode may be unreadable by implementations that don't support Zip64 even if all its contents would be.

    When setting the mode to `AsNeeded`, Zip64 extensions will transparently be used for those entries that require them. This mode can only be used if the uncompressed size of the `ZipEntry` is known when calling `putNextEntry(org.apache.tools.zip.ZipEntry)` or the archive is written to a seekable output (i.e. you have used the `File-arg constructor`) - this mode is not valid when the output stream is not seekable and the uncompressed size is unknown when `putNextEntry(org.apache.tools.zip.ZipEntry)` is called.

    If no entry inside the resulting archive requires Zip64 extensions then `Never` will create the smallest archive. `AsNeeded` will create a slightly bigger archive if the uncompressed size of any entry has initially been unknown and create an archive identical to `Never` otherwise. `Always` will create an archive that is at least 24 bytes per entry bigger than the one `Never` would create.

    Defaults to `AsNeeded` unless `putNextEntry(org.apache.tools.zip.ZipEntry)` is called with an entry of unknown size and data is written to a non-seekable stream - in this case the default is `Never`.

    Parameters:
      `mode` - Zip64Mode
    Since:
      1.3

  - ### finish

    public void finish() throws java.io.IOException
    Throws:
      `Zip64RequiredException` - if the archive's size exceeds 4 GByte or there are more than 65535 entries inside the archive and `setUseZip64(org.apache.tools.zip.Zip64Mode)` is `Zip64Mode.Never`.
      `java.io.IOException`

  - ### closeEntry

    public void closeEntry() throws java.io.IOException
    Writes all necessary data for this entry.
    Throws:
      `java.io.IOException` - on error

    Since:
      1.1

  - ### putNextEntry
