Stefan Bodewig commented on COMPRESS-93:
----------------------------------------
As a side effect COMPRESS-89 the stream and ZipFile classes now have
canRead/Write methods that not only look at the compression algorithm but also
reject encrypted entries.
WRT "alternative compression methods" - at least BZIP2 should be doable but I
don't know how to create an archive that uses it (so I can test an
implementation). LZMA compression would be interesting on its own anyway.
> Support for alternative ZIP compression methods
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: COMPRESS-93
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-93
> Project: Commons Compress
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Jukka Zitting
>
> 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.
