Stefan Bodewig updated COMPRESS-121:
------------------------------------
Labels: tar (was: )
> Add support for different tar dialects
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: COMPRESS-121
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-121
> Project: Commons Compress
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Archivers
> Affects Versions: 1.0, 1.1
> Reporter: Stefan Bodewig
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: tar
>
> Right now the tar classes handle ustar and oldgnu (and to a certain degree
> pax) but there are way more dialects out there. In particular we should
> support the POSIX format.
> https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25704 in Ant's bug tracker
> contains code that is supposed to support the Solaris variant (of 2003).
> So far I've only seen people ask for POSIX but not contributing patches.
