Hi, no, this is not about generics or enums or ...
This time it is methods added in the classlib, in particular java.util.zip.Inflater#getBytesRead and friends which return longs rather than ints that are returned by getTotalIn. Since ZIP entry size is an unsigned four byte int even without Zip64 support it simply doesn't fit into an int and some bugs cannot properly be fixed by using the Java4 method. (COMPRESS-129 is one). Things will become worse with Zip64 as we'd need unsigned longs but I'm willing to accept that as theoretical cases. The alternative would be to use some reflection magic inside the ZIP package (which I'm willing to do).
