Stefan Bodewig commented on COMPRESS-64:
----------------------------------------
see COMPRESS-42
flush comes in handy when you are writing to a network stream, for example.
Whether our implementations are really safe is a totally different question 8-)
> Are the public finish() methods ArchiveOutputStream implementations necessary
> and safe?

> Project: Commons Compress
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Sebb

> Some of the ArchiveOutputStream implementations have public finish() methods.
> These are currently only called from the close() methods.
> Seems to me that there is no need to allow the finish() methods to be called
> externally, and the user can corrupt the output if they do.
> Surely the close() method is all that is needed?
