Constructor Detail

ZipInputStream

public ZipInputStream(InputStream in)
Creates a new ZIP input stream.
Parameters:
in - the actual input stream
Method Detail

getNextEntry

public ZipEntry getNextEntry()
                      throws IOException
Reads the next ZIP file entry and positions stream at the beginning of the entry data.
Throws:
ZipException - if a ZIP file error has occurred
IOException - if an I/O error has occurred

closeEntry

public void closeEntry()
                throws IOException
Closes the current ZIP entry and positions the stream for reading the next entry.
Throws:
ZipException - if a ZIP file error has occurred
IOException - if an I/O error has occurred

available

public int available()
              throws IOException
Returns 0 after EOF has reached for the current entry data, otherwise always return 1.

Programs should not count on this method to return the actual number of bytes that could be read without blocking.

Returns:
1 before EOF and 0 after EOF has reached for current entry.
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
Overrides:
available in class InflaterInputStream

read

public int read(byte[] b,
                int off,
                int len)
         throws IOException
Reads from the current ZIP entry into an array of bytes. Blocks until some input is available.
Parameters:
b - the buffer into which the data is read
off - the start offset of the data
len - the maximum number of bytes read
Returns:
the actual number of bytes read, or -1 if the end of the entry is reached
Throws:
ZipException - if a ZIP file error has occurred
IOException - if an I/O error has occurred
Overrides:
read in class InflaterInputStream

skip

public long skip(long n)
          throws IOException
Skips specified number of bytes in the current ZIP entry.
Parameters:
n - the number of bytes to skip
Returns:
the actual number of bytes skipped
Throws:
ZipException - if a ZIP file error has occurred
IOException - if an I/O error has occurred
IllegalArgumentException - if n < 0
Overrides:
skip in class InflaterInputStream

close

public void close()
           throws IOException
Closes the ZIP input stream.
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error has occurred
Overrides:
close in class InflaterInputStream

createZipEntry

protected ZipEntry createZipEntry(String name)
Creates a new ZipEntry object for the specified entry name.
Parameters:
name - the ZIP file entry name
