Torsten Curdt commented on COMPRESS-59:
---------------------------------------

I think we should provide a common "toString()" but I would be -1 on adding 
toShortString() and/or toLongString() to the interface.

> ArchiveEntry could have toString methods for formatting header contents

> I think it would be useful if the ArchiveEntry interface had some methods for 
> formatting the entry information as a String.
> This could then be used to create an Archive scanner to list archive 
> contents, for example.
> There should probably be two methods:
> toShortString() - shows name, type and size only.
> toLongString() - shows all the details.
