Class Overview

This class provides an implementation of FilterOutputStream that compresses data entries into a ZIP-archive output stream.

ZipOutputStream is used to write ZipEntries to the underlying stream. Output from ZipOutputStream conforms to the ZipFile file format.

While DeflaterOutputStream can write a compressed ZIP-archive entry, this extension can write uncompressed entries as well. In this case special rules apply, for this purpose refer to the file format specification.

Public Constructors

public ZipOutputStream (OutputStream p1)

Constructs a new ZipOutputStream with the specified output stream.

Parameters
p1 the OutputStream to write the data to.

Public Methods

public void close ()

Closes the current ZipEntry, if any, and the underlying output stream. If the stream is already closed this method does nothing.

Throws
IOException If an error occurs closing the stream.

public void closeEntry ()

Closes the current ZipEntry. Any entry terminal data is written to the underlying stream.

Throws
IOException If an error occurs closing the entry.

public void finish ()

Indicates that all entries have been written to the stream. Any terminal information is written to the underlying stream.

Throws
IOException if an error occurs while terminating the stream.

public void putNextEntry (ZipEntry ze)

Writes entry information to the underlying stream. Data associated with the entry can then be written using write(). After data is written closeEntry() must be called to complete the writing of the entry to the underlying stream.

Parameters
ze the ZipEntry to store.
Throws
IOException If an error occurs storing the entry.
See Also

public void setComment (String comment)

Sets the ZipFile comment associated with the file being written.

Parameters
comment the comment associated with the file.

public void setLevel (int level)

Sets the compression level to be used for writing entry data. This level may be set on a per entry basis. The level must have a value between -1 and 8 according to the Deflater compression level bounds.

Parameters
level the compression level (ranging from -1 to 8).
See Also

public void setMethod (int method)

Sets the compression method to be used when compressing entry data. method must be one of STORED (for no compression) or DEFLATED.

Parameters
method the compression method to use.

public void write (byte[] buffer, int off, int nbytes)

Compresses nbytes of data from buf starting at off and writes it to the underlying stream.

Parameters
buffer the buffer of data to compress.
off offset in buffer to extract data from.
nbytes the number of bytes of data to read from the buffer.
Throws
IOException
