I'll fix this cut'n'paste error :-) > So lets go for what Anthony proposes. Return null and document it. I've already checked a patch into libgcj with this comment: * This implementation returns null if the requested entry does not * exist.

On the other hand, the old JCL book, 2nd Edition, * claims that this should return a "non-null ZIP entry". We have * chosen for now ignore the old book, as modern versions of Ant (an * important application) depend on this behaviour.

Sigh. I don't think they read it carefully. I'll follow up.
