Hello Tran Nam Quang, It uses CHMLIB C library, i.e. JNI. From my previous experience, it works for limited amount of os'es. It does not work in Solaris or AIX. The really good library with limitations mentioned above is http://sevenzipjbind.sourceforge.net/ and also LGPL (I would say, the best one).
