Jukka Zitting commented on COMPRESS-93:
---------------------------------------

In revision 890088 I made the code degrade more gracefully by only throwing an 
IOException with a more descriptive message when such an unsupported zip entry 
is actually being read or written. I also added a 
ZipArchiveEntry.isSupportedCompressionMethod() method that downstream clients 
can use to explicitly skip such entries and thus avoid the exception.

> Support for alternative ZIP compression methods

> As reported in TIKA-346, a ZIP file that uses a compression method other than 
> STORED (0) or DEFLATED (8) will cause an IllegalArgumentException ("invalid 
> compression method") to be thrown.
> It would be great if commons-compress supported alternative compression 
> methods or at least degraded more gracefully when encountering them.
