Leo Izen commented on COMPRESS-91:
----------------------------------

I tried this myself. If JarArchiveInputStream is before ZipArchiveInputStream, 
then when you open a file that is .zip but not .jar, it will return 
JarArchiveInputStream. There is no way to tell the difference between a jar and 
a zip file without looking at file extension.

> jar recognition is curently impossible.
