> Hm ... never thought this would be a problem for just reading. You need to merge data from the local file header with data from the central directory - and the central directory is at the end of the archive so you end up jumping between the end of the stream and the local file header position a lot. It also means you have to read the stream fully to even read the first entry. I think java.util.zip.ZipInputStream simply ignores the central directory, something I wouldn't like to do myself. >> that you should use ZipFile if you intend to read a zip archive >> with non-UTF8 encoding of filenames. > Why is that? Our ZipArchiveInputStream uses java.util.zip.ZipInputStream which doesn't deal with any encoding other than UTF-8.
