java.util.zip Documentation Differences

This file contains all the changes in documentation in the package java.util.zip as colored differences. Deletions are shown like this, and additions are shown like this.
If no deletions or additions are shown in an entry, the HTML tags will be what has changed. The new HTML tags are shown in the differences. If no documentation existed, and then some was added in a later version, this change is noted in the appropriate class pages of differences, but the change is not shown on this page. Only changes in existing text are shown here. Similarly, documentation which was inherited from another class or interface is not shown here.
Note that an HTML error in the new documentation may cause the display of other documentation changes to be presented incorrectly. For instance, failure to close a <code> tag will cause all subsequent paragraphs to be displayed differently.

Class Adler32

A class that can be used to compute the Adler-32 checksum of a data stream. An Adler-32 checksum is almost as reliable as a CRC-32 but can be computed much faster. @see Checksum @version 1.22 0224 12/0203/0001 @author David Connelly
Class Adler32, constructor Adler32()

Creates a new Adler32 classobject.

Class CRC32

A class that can be used to compute the CRC-32 of a data stream. @see Checksum @version 1.24 0227 12/0203/0001 @author David Connelly
Class CRC32, constructor CRC32()

Creates a new CRC32 classobject.
Class CRC32, void update(byte[])

Updates checksum with specified array of bytes. @param b the array of bytes to update the checksum with

Class CheckedInputStream

An input stream that also maintains a checksum of the data being read. The checksum can then be used to verify the integrity of the input data. @see Checksum @version 1.16 0217 12/0203/0001 @author David Connelly

Class CheckedOutputStream

An output stream that also maintains a checksum of the data being written. The checksum can then be used to verify the integrity of the output data. @see Checksum @version 1.15 0216 12/0203/0001 @author David Connelly

Class Checksum

An interface representing a data checksum. @version 1.13 0214 12/0203/0001 @author David Connelly

Class DataFormatException

Signals that a data format error has occurred. @version 1.10 0211 12/0203/0001 @author David Connelly

Class Deflater

This class provides support for general purpose compression using the popular ZLIB compression library. The ZLIB compression library was initially developed as part of the PNG graphics standard and is not protected by patents. It is fully described in the specifications at the java.util.zip package description. @see Inflater @version 1.34 0235 12/0203/0001 @author David Connelly

Class DeflaterOutputStream

This class implements an output stream filter for compressing data in the "deflate" compression format. It is also used as the basis for other types of compression filters such as GZIPOutputStream. @see Deflater @version 1.28 0830 12/0203/01 @author David Connelly

Class GZIPInputStream

This class implements a stream filter for reading compressed data in the GZIP format. @see InflaterInputStream @version 1.22 0223 12/0203/0001 @author David Connelly

Class GZIPOutputStream

This class implements a stream filter for writing compressed data in the GZIP file format. @version 1.18 0819 12/0203/01 @author David Connelly

Class Inflater

This class provides support for general purpose decompression using popular ZLIB compression library. The ZLIB compression library was initially developed as part of the PNG graphics standard and is not protected by patents. It is fully described in the specifications at the java.util.zip package description. @see Deflater @version 1.35 0236 12/0203/0001 @author David Connelly

Class InflaterInputStream

This class implements a stream filter for uncompressing data in the "deflate" compression format. It is also used as the basis for other decompression filters such as GZIPInputStream. @see Inflater @version 1.28 0230 12/0203/0001 @author David Connelly

Class ZipEntry

This class is used to represent a ZIP file entry. @version 1.31 0233 12/0203/0001 @author David Connelly

Class ZipException

Signals that a Zip exception of some sort has occurred. @author unascribed @version 1.12 0214 12/0203/0001 @see java.io.IOExcpetionIOException @since JDK1.0

Class ZipFile

This class is used to read entries from a zip file. @version 1.48 0254 12/0203/0001 @author David Connelly
Class ZipFile, constructor ZipFile(File, int)

Opens a new ZipFile to read from the specified File object in the specified mode. The mode argument must be either OPEN_READ or OPEN_READ | OPEN_DELETE.

First if there is a security manager its checkRead method is called with the name argument as its argument to ensure the read is allowed. @param file the ZIP file to be opened for reading @param mode the mode in which the file is to be opened @exception ZipException if a ZIP format error has occurred @exception IOException if an I/O error has occurred @exception SecurityException if a security manager exists and its checkRead method doesn't allow read access to the file or checkDelete method doesn't allow deleting the file when OPEN_DELETE flag is set. @exception IllegalArgumentException If the mode argument is invalid @see SecurityManager#checkRead(java.lang.String)


Class ZipInputStream

This class implements an input stream filter for reading files in the ZIP file format. Includes support for both compressed and uncompressed entries. @author David Connelly @version 1.28 0229 12/0203/0001

Class ZipOutputStream

This class implements an output stream filter for writing files in the ZIP file format. Includes support for both compressed and uncompressed entries. @author David Connelly @version 1.22 0824 12/0203/01
