Constructors

ZipOutputStream

public ZipOutputStream(OutputStream out)

Creates a new ZIP output stream.

The UTF-8 charset is used to encode the entry names and comments.

Parameters:
out - the actual output stream

ZipOutputStream

public ZipOutputStream(OutputStream out,
                       Charset charset)

Creates a new ZIP output stream.

Parameters:
out - the actual output stream
charset - the charset to be used to encode the entry names and comments
Since:
1.7

Methods

setComment

public void setComment(String comment)

Sets the ZIP file comment.

Parameters:
comment - the comment string
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the length of the specified ZIP file comment is greater than 0xFFFF bytes

setMethod

public void setMethod(int method)

Sets the default compression method for subsequent entries. This default will be used whenever the compression method is not specified for an individual ZIP file entry, and is initially set to DEFLATED.

Parameters:
method - the default compression method
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the specified compression method is invalid

setLevel

public void setLevel(int level)

Sets the compression level for subsequent entries which are DEFLATED. The default setting is DEFAULT_COMPRESSION.

Parameters:
level - the compression level (0-9)
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the compression level is invalid

putNextEntry

public void putNextEntry(ZipEntry e)
                  throws IOException

Begins writing a new ZIP file entry and positions the stream to the start of the entry data. Closes the current entry if still active. The default compression method will be used if no compression method was specified for the entry, and the current time will be used if the entry has no set modification time.

Parameters:
e - the ZIP entry to be written
Throws:
ZipException - if a ZIP format error has occurred
IOException - if an I/O error has occurred

closeEntry

public void closeEntry()
                throws IOException

Closes the current ZIP entry and positions the stream for writing the next entry.

Throws:
ZipException - if a ZIP format error has occurred
IOException - if an I/O error has occurred

write

public void write(byte[] b,
                  int off,
                  int len)
           throws IOException

Writes an array of bytes to the current ZIP entry data. This method will block until all the bytes are written.

Overrides:
write in class DeflaterOutputStream
Parameters:
b - the data to be written
off - the start offset in the data
len - the number of bytes that are written
Throws:
ZipException - if a ZIP file error has occurred
IOException - if an I/O error has occurred
See Also:
FilterOutputStream.write(int)

finish

public void finish()
            throws IOException

Finishes writing the contents of the ZIP output stream without closing the underlying stream. Use this method when applying multiple filters in succession to the same output stream.

Overrides:
finish in class DeflaterOutputStream
Throws:
ZipException - if a ZIP file error has occurred
IOException - if an I/O exception has occurred

close

public void close()
           throws IOException

Closes the ZIP output stream as well as the stream being filtered.

Specified by:
close in interface Closeable
Specified by:
close in interface AutoCloseable
Overrides:
close in class DeflaterOutputStream
Throws:
ZipException - if a ZIP file error has occurred
IOException - if an I/O error has occurred
