Archive output stream implementations are expected to override the OutputStream.write(byte[], int, int) method to improve performance. They should also override OutputStream.close() to ensure that any necessary trailers are added.

The normal sequence of calls when working with ArchiveOutputStreams is:

/** * Archive output stream implementations are expected to override the * {@link #write(byte[], int, int)} method to improve performance. * They should also override {@link #close()} to ensure that any necessary * trailers are added. * * <p>The normal sequence of calls when working with ArchiveOutputStreams is:</p> * <ul> * <li>Create ArchiveOutputStream object,</li> * <li>optionally write SFX header (Zip only),</li> * <li>repeat as needed: * <ul> * <li>{@link #putArchiveEntry(ArchiveEntry)} (writes entry header), * <li>{@link #write(byte[])} (writes entry data, as often as needed), * <li>{@link #closeArchiveEntry()} (closes entry), * </ul> * </li> * <li> {@link #finish()} (ends the addition of entries),</li> * <li> optionally write additional data, provided format supports it,</li> * <li>{@link #close()}.</li> * </ul> */

Writes the headers for an archive entry to the output stream. The caller must then write the content to the stream and call closeArchiveEntry() to complete the process.
Params:
  • entry – describes the entry
Throws:
/** * Writes the headers for an archive entry to the output stream. * The caller must then write the content to the stream and call * {@link #closeArchiveEntry()} to complete the process. * * @param entry describes the entry * @throws IOException if an I/O error occurs */
public abstract void putArchiveEntry(ArchiveEntry entry) throws IOException;
Closes the archive entry, writing any trailer information that may be required.
Throws:
  • IOException – if an I/O error occurs
/** * Closes the archive entry, writing any trailer information that may * be required. * @throws IOException if an I/O error occurs */
public abstract void closeArchiveEntry() throws IOException;
Finishes the addition of entries to this stream, without closing it. Additional data can be written, if the format supports it.
Throws:
  • IOException – if the user forgets to close the entry.
/** * Finishes the addition of entries to this stream, without closing it. * Additional data can be written, if the format supports it. * * @throws IOException if the user forgets to close the entry. */
public abstract void finish() throws IOException;
Create an archive entry using the inputFile and entryName provided.
Params:
  • inputFile – the file to create the entry from
  • entryName – name to use for the entry
Throws:
Returns:the ArchiveEntry set up with details from the file
/** * Create an archive entry using the inputFile and entryName provided. * * @param inputFile the file to create the entry from * @param entryName name to use for the entry * @return the ArchiveEntry set up with details from the file * * @throws IOException if an I/O error occurs */

Writes a byte to the current archive entry.

This method simply calls write( byte[], 0, 1 ).

MUST be overridden if the OutputStream.write(byte[], int, int) method is not overridden; may be overridden otherwise.

Params:
  • b – The byte to be written.
Throws:
/** * Writes a byte to the current archive entry. * * <p>This method simply calls {@code write( byte[], 0, 1 )}. * * <p>MUST be overridden if the {@link #write(byte[], int, int)} method * is not overridden; may be overridden otherwise. * * @param b The byte to be written. * @throws IOException on error */

Increments the counter of already written bytes. Doesn't increment if EOF has been hit (written == -1).
Params:
  • written – the number of bytes written
/** * Increments the counter of already written bytes. * Doesn't increment if EOF has been hit ({@code written == -1}). * * @param written the number of bytes written */
protected void count(final int written) { count((long) written); }
Increments the counter of already written bytes. Doesn't increment if EOF has been hit (written == -1).
Params:
  • written – the number of bytes written
Since:1.1

Returns the current number of bytes written to this stream.
Returns:the number of written bytes
Deprecated:this method may yield wrong results for large archives, use #getBytesWritten instead
/** * Returns the current number of bytes written to this stream. * @return the number of written bytes * @deprecated this method may yield wrong results for large * archives, use #getBytesWritten instead */

Whether this stream is able to write the given entry.

Some archive formats support variants or details that are not supported (yet).

Params:
  • archiveEntry – the entry to test
Returns:This implementation always returns true.
Since:1.1
