Java.util.zip.ZipEntry class in Java

• ZipEntry(String name) : Creates a new zip entry with the specified name.
• ZipEntry(ZipEntry e) : Creates a new zip entry with fields taken from the specified zip entry.

• Object clone() : Returns a copy of this entry.

  Syntax :public Object clone()
  Overrides:
  clone in class Object
  Returns:
  a clone of this instance.

• String getComment() : Returns the comment string for the entry, or null if none.

  Syntax :public String getComment()
  Returns:
  the comment string for the entry, or null if none

• long getCompressedSize() : Returns the size of the compressed entry data, or -1 if not known.In the case of a stored entry, the compressed size will be the same as the uncompressed size of the entry.

  Syntax :public long getCompressedSize()
  Returns:
  the size of the compressed entry data, or -1 if not known

• long getCrc() : Returns the CRC-32 checksum of the uncompressed entry data, or -1 if not known.

  Syntax :public long getCrc()
  Returns:
  the CRC-32 checksum of the uncompressed entry data, or -1 if not known

• byte[] getExtra() : Returns the extra field data for the entry, or null if none.

  Syntax :=public byte[] getExtra()
  Returns:
  the extra field data for the entry, or null if none
  

• int getMethod() : Returns the compression method of the entry, or -1 if not specified.

  Syntax :public int getMethod()
  Returns:
  the compression method of the entry, or -1 if not specified

• String getName() : Returns the name of the entry.

  Syntax :public String getName()
  Returns:
  the name of the entry
  

• long getSize() :Returns the uncompressed size of the entry data, or -1 if not known.

  Syntax :public long getSize()
  Returns:
  the uncompressed size of the entry data, or -1 if not know

• long getTime() : Returns the modification time of the entry, or -1 if not specified.

  Syntax :public long getTime()
  Returns:
  the modification time of the entry, or -1 if not specified

• int hashCode() : Returns the hash code value for this entry.

  Syntax :public int hashCode()
  Overrides:
  hashCode in class Object
  Returns:
  a hash code value for this object.

• boolean isDirectory() : Returns true if this is a directory entry. A directory entry is defined to be one whose name ends with a '/'.

  Syntax :public boolean isDirectory()
  Returns:
  true if this is a directory entry

• void setComment(String comment):Sets the optional comment string for the entry.ZIP entry comments have maximum length of 0xffff. If the length of the specified comment string is greater than 0xFFFF bytes after encoding, only the first 0xFFFF bytes are output to the ZIP file entry.

  Syntax :public void setComment(String comment)
  Parameters:
  comment - the comment string

• void setCompressedSize(long csize) : Sets the size of the compressed entry data.

  Syntax :public void setCompressedSize(long csize)
  Parameters:
  csize - the compressed size to set to

• void setCrc(long crc) : Sets the CRC-32 checksum of the uncompressed entry data.

  Syntax :public void setCrc(long crc)
  Parameters:
  crc - the CRC-32 value
  Throws:
  IllegalArgumentException

• void setExtra(byte[] extra) : Sets the optional extra field data for the entry.

  Syntax :public void setExtra(byte[] extra)
  Parameters:
  extra - the extra field data bytes
  Throws:
  IllegalArgumentException

• void setMethod(int method) : Sets the compression method for the entry.

  Syntax :public void setMethod(int method)
  Parameters:
  method - the compression method, either STORED or DEFLATED
  Throws:
  IllegalArgumentException 

• void setSize(long size) : Sets the uncompressed size of the entry data.

  Syntax :public void setSize(long size)
  Parameters:
  size - the uncompressed size in bytes
  Throws:
  IllegalArgumentException 

• void setTime(long time) : Sets the modification time of the entry.

  Syntax :public void setTime(long time)
  Parameters:
  time - the entry modification time in number of milliseconds since the epoch

• String toString() : Returns a string representation of the ZIP entry.

  Syntax :public String toString()
  Overrides:
  toString in class Object
  Returns:
  a string representation of the object.
