Stefan Bodewig updated COMPRESS-141:
------------------------------------
Component/s: Archivers
Summary: Support writing the GNU variant of longer file names in AR
(was: Support longer file names in AR)
Changing the title to reflect the fact that we can already read the GNU variant
and BSD has been split into a separate issue.
> Support writing the GNU variant of longer file names in AR
> ----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: COMPRESS-141
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-141
> Project: Commons Compress
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Archivers
> Affects Versions: 1.1
> Reporter: Stefan Bodewig
> Priority: Minor
>
> Traditionally file names in AR are restricted to 16 bytes and the current
> code fully supports this. Two different dialects exist to overcome this (BSD
> and SVR4/GNU) and our code should probably support both of them when reading
> and a configurable version when writing.
