Release History

Version	Date	Description
1.26.1	2024-03-05	Minor feature and maintenance release.
1.26.0	2024-02-17	Minor feature and maintenance release.
1.25.0	2023-11-12	Minor feature and maintenance release.
1.24.0	2023-09-04	Minor feature and maintenance release.
1.23.0	2023-03-18	Minor feature and maintenance release.
1.22	2022-11-01	Minor feature and maintenance release.
1.21	2021-07-12	Release 1.21 (Java 8 or above) ---------------------------------------- SevenZFileOptions has a new setting that needs to be enabled explicity if SevenZFile should try to recover broken archives - a feature introduced with Commons Compress 1.19. This is a breaking change if you relied on the recovery attempt.
1.20	2020-02-08	Release 1.20 (Java 7 or above)
1.19	2019-08-27	Release 1.19 ---------------------------------------- ZipArchiveInputStream and ZipFile will no longer throw an exception if an extra field generally understood by Commons Compress is malformed but rather turn them into UnrecognizedExtraField instances. You can influence the way extra fields are parsed in more detail by using the new getExtraFields(ExtraFieldParsingBehavior) method of ZipArchiveEntry now. Some of the ZIP extra fields related to strong encryption will now throw ZipExceptions rather than ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsExceptions in certain cases when used directly. There is no practical difference when they are read via ZipArchiveInputStream or ZipFile.
1.18	2018-08-16	Release 1.18 ---------------------------------------- This release changes the OSGi Manifest entry Bundle-SymbolicName from org.apache.commons.compress to org.apache.commons.commons-compress.
1.17	2018-06-03	Release 1.17
1.16.1	2018-02-10	Release 1.16.1
1.16	2018-02-05	Release 1.16
1.15	2017-10-17	Release 1.15 ---------------------------------------- TarArchiveOutputStream now ensures record size is 512 and block size is a multiple of 512 as any other value would create invalid tar archives. This may break compatibility for code that deliberately wanted to create such files.
1.14	2017-05-14	Release 1.14
1.13	2016-12-29	Release 1.13 - API compatible to 1.12 but requires Java 7 at runtime.
1.12	2016-06-21	Release 1.12 - API compatible to 1.11 but requires Java 6 at runtime. ------------ Release 1.12 changes the behavior of BZip2CompressorOutputStream's finalize method so that it no longer invokes finish. This is going to break code that relied on the finalizer to clean up an unfinished stream. The code will need to be changed to call finish or close itself. Note that a finalizer is not guaranteed to run, so the feature was not 100% effective in any case.
1.11	2016-04-06	Release 1.11
1.10	2015-08-18	Release 1.10 ------------ Release 1.10 moves the former org.apache.commons.compress.compressors.z._internal_ package which breaks backwards compatibility for code which used the old package. This also changes the superclass of ZCompressorInputStream.
1.9	2014-10-09	Release 1.9
1.8.1	2014-05-14	Release 1.8.1
1.8	2014-03-12	Release 1.8
1.7	2014-01-20	Release 1.7
1.6	2013-10-26	Release 1.6
1.5	2013-03-14	Release 1.5
1.4.1	2012-05-23	Release 1.4.1
1.4	2012-04-11	Release 1.4
1.3	2011-11-01	Release 1.3 - API compatible to 1.2 but requires Java5 at runtime
1.2	2011-07-31	Release 1.2 - a bugfix release, the last release expected to be compatible with Java 1.4
1.1	2010-08-13	Release 1.1
1.0	2009-05-21	First Public Release

	Fix bugs in random access of 7z. Exceptions are thrown when reading the first entry multiple times by random access. Fixes COMPRESS-510.
	Add '/' to directories with long name in tar. This is to resolve the ambiguous behavior of the TarArchiveEntry.getName() method between directory with short name and long name. Fixes COMPRESS-509. Thanks to Petr Vasak.	PeterLee
	Removed the PowerMock dependency. Fixes COMPRESS-520. Thanks to Robin Schimpf.
	Added improved checks to detect corrupted bzip2 streams and throw the expected IOException rather than obscure RuntimeExceptions. See also COMPRESS-519. Fixes COMPRESS-516.
	Improved parsing of X5455_ExtendedTimestamp ZIP extra field. Fixes COMPRESS-517.
	ZipArchiveInputStream and ZipFile will now throw an IOException rather than a RuntimeException if the zip64 extra field of an entry could not be parsed. Fixes COMPRESS-518.
	Improved detection of corrupt ZIP archives in ZipArchiveInputStream. Fixes COMPRESS-523.
	Added improved checks to detect corrupted deflate64 streams and throw the expected IOException rather than obscure RuntimeExceptions. See also COMPRESS-522, COMPRESS-525, COMPRESS-526, and COMPRESS-527. Fixes COMPRESS-521.
	Add the archive name in the exception in the constructor of ZipFile to make it a more specific exception. Github Pull Request #102. Fixes COMPRESS-515. Thanks to ian-lavallee.

Throw IllegalArgumentException instead of RuntimeExceptions if the file name is longer than 100 bytes with the longFileMode of LONGFILE_ERROR, and address this in java docs. Throw IllegalArgumentException instead of RuntimeExceptions if the any of the numeric values of an entry exceeds the limits of a traditional tar header while bigNumberMode is BIGNUMBER_ERROR, and address this in java docs. Fixes COMPRESS-529.
	Made an inner class static Github Pull Request #107. Fixes COMPRESS-536. Thanks to Jin Xu.
	added an early exit to a loop in BZip2CompressorOutputStream Github Pull Request #106. Fixes COMPRESS-535. Thanks to Jin Xu.
	Update the class of variable file in TarArchiveEntry from java.io.File to java.nio.file.Path. Corresponding constructors and methods are also modified/added. NOTE: The userName, groupName, userID and groupID will also be set if they are available. The userName and groupName was not set previously, and the previous value of UserID:GroupID was 0:0 by default. Please note this may cause a reproducibility problem. Github Pull Request #97. Fixes COMPRESS-404. Thanks to theobisproject.
	Reuse the record buffer in TarArchiveInputStream. Fixes COMPRESS-539. Thanks to Robin Schimpf.
	Add SevenZOutputFile.write(InputStream). Thanks to Gary Gregory.	ggregory

	Add IOUtils.EMPTY_LINK_OPTIONS. Thanks to Gary Gregory.	ggregory
	Add Path support to ZipArchiveOutputStream #123. Thanks to Gary Gregory.	ggregory
	Fix for test fails on Windows. The tests are failing because the default charset is not UTF-8. Fixes COMPRESS-543. Thanks to wulf2333.	PeterLee
	TarArchiveInputStream can not detect a truncated tar in skip() and skipRecordPadding(). Fixes COMPRESS-544. Thanks to Aditya Prasad.	PeterLee
	Make the memory allocation in SevenZFile.readFilesInfo a lazy allocation to avoid OOM when dealing some giant 7z archives. Github Pull Request #120. Also added sanity checks before even trying to parse an archive and made SevenZFileOptions' maxMemorySizeInKb apply to the stored metadata for an archive. And further added an option that needs to be enabled in order to make SevenZFile try to recover a broken archive. This is a backwards incompatible change. Fixes COMPRESS-542. Thanks to theobisproject.	theobisproject
	ZipArchiveInputStream should throw an exception if a corrputed zip64 extra field is met. Fixes COMPRESS-546. Thanks to Maksim Zuev.	PeterLee
	Add a new maven profile in pom.xml for JDK14+ to ignore the failing tests about Pack200. This has later been superseeded by adding the Apache Harmony classes for Pack200 support.	PeterLee
	Throw an IOException when reading the ZIP extra field if the length is too short. Fixes COMPRESS-548. Thanks to Maksim Zuev.	PeterLee
	Throw an declared IOException if a null entry is met when reading a global pax header instead of a runtime NPE. Fixes COMPRESS-554. Thanks to Maksim Zuev.	PeterLee
	ZIP extraction could lead to ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsExceptions rather than the expected IOException. Fixes COMPRESS-545. Thanks to Maksim Zuev.	PeterLee
	Add asserts for Arrays.copyOf in X0017_StrongEncryptionHeader. Fixes COMPRESS-547. Thanks to Maksim Zuev.	PeterLee
	Add writePreamble to ZipArchiveInputStream. This method could write raw data to ZIP archive before any entry was written to the ZIP archive. For most of the time, this is used to create self-extracting ZIP. Github Pull Request #127. Fixes COMPRESS-550. Thanks to Scott Frederick.	PeterLee
	Fix for the CFH signature detect in ZipArchiveInputStream. The problem could be reproduced by a ZIP archive with Data Descriptor and STORED, and without the Data Descriptor signature.	PeterLee
	The length validation in TarArchiveInputStream.parsePaxHeaders should also consider the headers with length smaller than 1 and ignore these headers. Fixes COMPRESS-553. Thanks to Maksim Zuev.	PeterLee
	Fix accidentally added '/' to file names. This problem is caused by the incomplete fix of COMPRESS-509. Github Pull Request #151. Fixes COMPRESS-558. Thanks to Robin Schimpf.	Robin Schimpf
	As sparse entries can be successfully parsed now, TarArchiveInputStream.canReadEntryData should return true if the entry is a sparse entry. Github Pull Request #153. Fixes COMPRESS-560. Thanks to Robin Schimpf.	Robin Schimpf
	SparseFilesTest#testExtractPaxGNU should be skipped if the version of GNU tar binary is 1.28. Github Pull Request #152. Fixes COMPRESS-559. Thanks to Robin Schimpf.	Robin Schimpf

	Added support for BufferPool in ZstdCompressorInputStream. Github Pull Request #165. Fixes COMPRESS-565. Thanks to Michael L Heuer.	PeterLee
	Removed an empty loop that was just warming the planet for certain ZIP archives. Github Pull Request #172. Thanks to Fabian Meumertzheim.
	Made some of the stream classes used internally throw IOExceptions on illegal arguments rather than RuntimeExceptions to make it more likely that corrupt archives cause expected checked exceptions rather than RuntimException for various formats. Fixes a specific case for ZIP but affects other formats as well. Fixes COMPRESS-567.
	Commons Compress cannot be built with JDK14 due to Pack200 removal. Add Pack200 implementation from Apache Harmony. Fixes COMPRESS-507. Thanks to Gary Gregory, Apache Harmony.	ggregory

	Bump commons.javadoc.version from 3.2.0 to 3.3.0. Thanks to Gary Gregory.	ggregory
	Checked the sizes read for archive entries and reject archives as broken with negative entry sizes. Fixes an infinite loop in the new TarFile class but affects several formats. Fixes COMPRESS-569.
	OSGi detection was broken and so we always cached whether XZ/brotli/zstd/LZMA have been available even in OSGi environments. Fixes COMPRESS-552.
	SevenZFile.getEntries now return a copy of entries. Fixes COMPRESS-571.
	Update com.github.luben:zstd-jni from 1.4.8-7 to 1.4.9-1 #176. Thanks to Dependabot.	PeterLee
	Handling of sparse tar entries has been hardened to ensure bad inputs cause expected IOExceptions rather than RuntimeExceptions. Fixes COMPRESS-575.
	Update org.tukaani:xz from 1.8 to 1.9
	Add a new AlwaysWithCompatibility in Zip64Mode, this is a compromise for some libraries including 7z and Expand-Archive Powershell utility(and likely Excel). And we will encode both the LFH offset and Disk Number Start in the ZIP64 Extended Information Extra Field - even if only the disk number needs to be encoded. Github Pull Request #169. Fixes COMPRESS-565. Thanks to Evgenii Bovykin.	PeterLee

Release 1.20 – 2020-02-08

Type	Changes	By
	Update optional library com.github.luben:zstd-jni from 1.4.0-1 to 1.4.4-7. Fixes COMPRESS-493.
	Update tests from org.apache.felix:org.apache.felix.framework 6.0.2 to 6.0.3.
	SevenZFile could throw NullPointerException rather than IOException for certain archives. In addition it now handles certain empty archives more gracefully. Fixes COMPRESS-492.
	Deflate64CompressorInputStream.read would return 0 for some inputs in violation of the InputStream.read contract. Fixes COMPRESS-491.
	Removed the extraction code from the example CLI class inside of the SevenZ package. Not only is it superseeded by the examples package, its implementation was vulnerable to the ZipSlip attack. Fixes COMPRESS-495.
	SevenZFile can now recover from a certain corruption that seems to happen occasionally when split archives are created. Fixes COMPRESS-497. Thanks to Stefan Schlott.
	Added random access support to SevenZFile. Fixes COMPRESS-342. Thanks to Peter Alfred Lee.
	Added support for split ZIP archives. Fixes COMPRESS-477. Thanks to Peter Alfred Lee.
	Added support for reading sparse entries to the TAR package. Fixes COMPRESS-124. Thanks to Peter Alfred Lee.
	SeekableInMemoryByteChannel's truncate didn't set position according to the spec in an edge case. Fixes COMPRESS-499.
	BZip2CompressorInputStream now incorporates a similar patch as the one that fixed CVE-2019-12900 in libbzip2. Commons Compress has not been vulnerable to this CVE as it would have rejected a file with too many selectors. With this patch Commons Compress will be able to read certain archives that would have caused errors in Compress 1.19. Thanks to Joseph Allemandou.
	Update JUnit from 4.12 to 4.13.

Release 1.19 – 2019-08-27

Type	Changes	By
	ZipArchiveInputStream could forget the compression level has changed under certain circumstances.
	It is now possible to skip parsing of local file headers when using ZipFile which may speed up reading the archive at the cost of potentially missing important information. See the javadocs of the ZipFile class for details. Fixes COMPRESS-466.
	TarArchiveInputStream has a new constructor-arg lenient that can be used to accept certain broken archives. Fixes COMPRESS-469.
	Fixed another potential resource leak in ParallelScatterZipCreator#writeTo. Fixes COMPRESS-470.
	ArjArchiveEntry and SevenZArchiveEntry now implement hashCode and equals. Fixes COMPRESS-475.
	ArArchiveInputStream could think it had hit EOF prematurely. Github Pull Request #74. Thanks to Alex Bertram.
	SevenZFile now provides a way to cap memory consumption for LZMA(2) compressed content. Github Pull Request #76. Fixes COMPRESS-481. Thanks to Robin Schimpf.
	The ARJ package has been updated to contain constants for more recent specifications. Fixes COMPRESS-464. Thanks to Rostislav Krasny.
	Update optional library zstd-jni from 1.3.3-3 to 1.4.0-1. Fixes COMPRESS-484.
	ParallelScatterZipCreator now writes the entries to the gathered output in the same order they have been added. Github Pull Requests #78 and #79. Fixes COMPRESS-485. Thanks to Hervé Boutemy, Tibor Digana.
	Throw IOException rather than RuntimeExceptions for certain malformed LZ4 or Snappy inputs. Fixes COMPRESS-490.
	The Expander and Archive example classes can leak resources they have wrapped around passed in streams or channels. The methods consuming streams and channels have been adapted to give the calling code a chance to deal with those wrapper resources. Fixes COMPRESS-486.
	ZipArchiveInputStream and ZipFile no longer assume Commons Compress would understand extra fields better than the writer of the archive and silently turn extra fields that Commons Compress should understand into UnrecognizedExtraFields if parsing said fields fails. It is now possible to take more control over the extra field parsing process with a new overload of ZipArchiveEntry#getExtraFields. Fixes COMPRESS-479.
	ZipArchiveInputStream failed to read stored entries with a data descriptor if the data descriptor didn't use the signature invented by InfoZIP. Fixes COMPRESS-482.
	ZipArchiveInputStream will now throw an exception if reading a stored entry with a data descriptor and the data descriptor doesn't match what it has actually read. The most common case for a situation like this is a stored ZIP archive inside of the archive ZipArchiveInputStream currently reads. In such a case ZipArchiveInputStream would happily extract the contained archive and stop once the central directory of the inner archive has been hit. This is a case where ZipArchiveInputStream simply can not be used and only ZipFile is able to read the archive. The only other explanation is a broken archive. So the exception prevents users from thinking they had successfully read the contents of the archive. Fixes COMPRESS-483.
	Added a MultiReadOnlySeekableByteChannel class that can be used to concatenate the parts of a multi volume 7z archive so that SevenZFile can read them. Fixes COMPRESS-231. Thanks to Tim Underwood.
	The 7zip tools provide a default name for archive entries without name; SevenZFile returns a null name for such entries. A new method getDefaultName has been added to derive the same name the 7zip tools would use and an option has been added that sets SevenZArchiveEntry's name to the default name if it is not contained inside the archive. Fixes COMPRESS-478.
	NioZipEncoding#encode could enter an infinite loop for certain inputs.

Release 1.18 – 2018-08-16

Type	Changes	By
	The example Expander class has been vulnerable to a path traversal in the edge case that happens when the target directory has a sibling directory and the name of the target directory is a prefix of the sibling directory's name. Thanks to DidierLoiseau.
	Changed the OSGi Import-Package to also optionally import javax.crypto so encrypted archives can be read. Fixes COMPRESS-456.
	Changed various implementations of the close method to better ensure all held resources get closed even if exceptions are thrown during the closing the stream. Fixes COMPRESS-457.
	ZipArchiveInputStream can now detect the APK Signing Block used in signed Android APK files and treats it as an "end of archive" marker. Fixes COMPRESS-455.
	The cpio streams didn't handle archives using a multi-byte encoding properly. Fixes COMPRESS-459. Thanks to Jens Reimann.
	It is now possible to specify the arguments of zstd-jni's ZstdOutputStream constructors via Commons Compress as well. Fixes COMPRESS-460. Thanks to Carmi Grushko.
	ZipArchiveInputStream#read would silently return -1 on a corrupted stored entry and even return > 0 after hitting the end of the archive. Fixes COMPRESS-463.
	ArArchiveInputStream#read would allow to read from the stream without opening an entry at all. Fixes COMPRESS-462.

Release 1.17 – 2018-06-03

Type	Changes	By
	Removed the objenesis dependency from the pom as it is not needed at all.
	Fixed resource leak in ParallelScatterZipCreator#writeTo. Fixes COMPRESS-446.
	Fixed some code examples. Github Pull Request #63. Thanks to Marchenko Sergey.
	Certain errors when parsing ZIP extra fields in corrupt archives are now turned into ZipException, they used to manifest as ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException before. Fixes COMPRESS-447.
	The streams returned by ZipFile and most other decompressing streams now provide information about the number of compressed and uncompressed bytes read so far. This may be used to detect a ZipBomb if the compression ratio exceeds a certain threshold, for example. For SevenZFile a new method returns the statistics for the current entry. Fixes COMPRESS-445. Thanks to Andreas Beeker.
	Added a unit test that is supposed to fail if we break the OSGi manifest entries again. Fixes COMPRESS-443.
	Add a new SkipShieldingInputStream class that can be used with streams that throw an IOException when skip is invoked. Fixes COMPRESS-449.
	IOUtils.copy now verifies the buffer size is bigger than 0. Fixes COMPRESS-451.
	New constructors have been added to SevenZFile that accept char[]s rather than byte[]s in order to avoid a common error of using the wrong encoding when creating the byte[]. This change may break source compatibility for client code that uses one of the constructors expecting a password and passes in null as password. We recommend to change the code to use a constructor without password argument. Fixes COMPRESS-452.
	Added a workaround for a bug in AdoptOpenJDK for S/390 to BZip2CompressorInputStream. Fixes COMPRESS-453.
	ZipArchiveInputStream failed to read some files with stored entries using a data descriptor. Fixes COMPRESS-454.

Release 1.16.1 – 2018-02-10

Type	Changes	By
	Fixed the OSGi manifest entry for imports that has been broken in 1.16. Fixes COMPRESS-442.

Release 1.16 – 2018-02-05

Type	Changes	By
	Add read-only support for Zstandard compression based on the Zstd-jni project. Fixes COMPRESS-423. Thanks to Andre F de Miranda.
	Added auto-detection for Zstandard compressed streams. Fixes COMPRESS-425.
	Synchronized iteration over a synchronizedList in ParallelScatterZipCreator. Fixes COMPRESS-430. Thanks to Bruno P. Kinoshita.
	ZipFile could get stuck in an infinite loop when parsing ZIP archives with certain strong encryption headers. Fixes COMPRESS-432.
	Replaces instanceof checks with a type marker in LZ77 support code. Fixes COMPRESS-435. Thanks to BELUGA BEHR.
	Added write-support for Zstandard compression. Fixes COMPRESS-426.
	Added improved checks to detect corrupted bzip2 streams and throw the expected IOException rather than obscure RuntimeExceptions. Fixes COMPRESS-424.
	Updated XZ for Java dependency to 1.8 in order to pick up bug fix to LZMA2InputStream's available method.
	ZipArchiveEntry now exposes how the name or comment have been determined when the entry was read. Fixes COMPRESS-429. Thanks to Damiano Albani.
	Added read-only DEFLATE64 support to ZIP archives and as stand-alone CompressorInputStream. Fixes COMPRESS-380. Thanks to Christian Marquez Grabia.
	ZipFile.getInputStream will now always buffer the stream internally in order to improve read performance. Fixes COMPRESS-438.
	Speed improvement for DEFLATE64 decompression. Fixes COMPRESS-440. Thanks to Dawid Weiss.
	Added read-only DEFLATE64 support to 7z archives. Fixes COMPRESS-437.
	Added a few extra sanity checks for the rarer compression methods used in ZIP archives. Fixes COMPRESS-436.
	Simplified the special handling for the dummy byte required by zlib when using java.util.zip.Inflater. Fixes COMPRESS-441.
	Various code cleanups. Github Pull Request #61. Thanks to Shahab Kondri.
	TarArchiveEntry's preserveLeadingSlashes constructor argument has been renamed and can now also be used to preserve the drive letter on Windows.

Release 1.15 – 2017-10-17

Type	Changes	By
	Make sure "version needed to extract" in local file header and central directory of a ZIP archive agree with each other. Also ensure the version is set to 2.0 if DEFLATE is used. Fixes COMPRESS-394.
	Don't use a data descriptor in ZIP archives when copying a raw entry that already knows its size and CRC information. Fixes COMPRESS-395.
	Travis build redundantly repeats compilation and tests redundantly #43. Fixes COMPRESS-413. Thanks to Simon Spero.
	Added magic MANIFEST entry Automatic-Module-Name so the module name will be org.apache.commons.compress when the jar is used as an automatic module in Java9. Fixes COMPRESS-397.
	The MANIFEST of 1.14 lacks an OSGi Import-Package for XZ for Java. Fixes COMPRESS-396.
	BUILDING.md now passes the RAT check. Fixes COMPRESS-406. Thanks to Simon Spero.
	Added a new utility class FixedLengthBlockOutputStream that can be used to ensure writing always happens in blocks of a given size. Fixes COMPRESS-405. Thanks to Simon Spero.
	Made sure ChecksumCalculatingInputStream receives valid checksum and input stream instances via the constructor. Fixes COMPRESS-412. Thanks to Michael Hausegger.
	TarArchiveOutputStream now verifies the block and record sizes specified at construction time are compatible with the tar specification. In particular 512 is the only record size accepted and the block size must be a multiple of 512. At the same time the default block size in TarArchiveOutputStream has been changed from 10240 to 512 bytes. Fixes COMPRESS-407. Thanks to Simon Spero.
	It is now possible to specify/read custom PAX headers when writing/reading tar archives. Fixes COMPRESS-400. Thanks to Simon Spero.
	Fixed class names of CpioArchiveEntry and CpioArchiveInputStream in various Javadocs. Fixes COMPRESS-415.
	The code of the extended timestamp ZIP extra field incorrectly assumed the time was stored as unsigned 32-bit int and thus created incorrect results for years after 2037. Fixes COMPRESS-416. Thanks to Simon Spero.
	Removed ZipEncoding code that became obsolete when we started to require Java 5 as baseline long ago. Fixes COMPRESS-410. Thanks to Simon Spero.
	The tar package will no longer try to parse the major and minor device numbers unless the entry represents a character or block special file. Fixes COMPRESS-417.
	When reading tar headers with name fields containing embedded NULs, the name will now be terminated at the first NUL byte. Fixes COMPRESS-421. Thanks to Roel Spilker.
	Simplified TarArchiveOutputStream by replacing the internal buffering with new class FixedLengthBlockOutputStream. Fixes COMPRESS-409.

Release 1.14 – 2017-05-14

Type	Changes	By
	SnappyCompressorInputStream slides the window too early leading to ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsExceptions for some streams. Fixes COMPRESS-378.
	Added write support for Snappy. Fixes COMPRESS-246.
	The blocksize for FramedSnappyCompressorInputStream can now be configured as some IWA files seem to be using blocks larger than the default 32k. Fixes COMPRESS-358.
	ZipArchiveEntry#isUnixSymlink now only returns true if the corresponding link flag is the only file-type flag set. Fixes COMPRESS-379. Thanks to Guillaume Boué.

Type	Changes	By
	Update Java requirement from 6 to 7. Fixes COMPRESS-360.	ggregory
	BitInputStream could return bad results when overflowing internally - if two consecutive reads tried to read more than 64 bits. Fixes COMPRESS-363.
	Clarified which TarArchiveEntry methods are useless for entries read from an archive. Fixes COMPRESS-366.
	ZipArchiveInputStream.closeEntry does not properly advance to next entry if there are junk bytes at end of data section. Fixes COMPRESS-364. Thanks to Mike Mole.
	SevenZFile, SevenZOutputFile, ZipFile and ZipArchiveOutputStream can now work on non-file resources if they can be accessed via SeekableByteChannel. Fixes COMPRESS-327.
	Allow compressor extensions through a standard JRE ServiceLoader. Fixes COMPRESS-368.
	Allow archive extensions through a standard JRE ServiceLoader. Fixes COMPRESS-369.
	Add write support for the legacy LZMA format, this requires XZ for Java 1.6. Fixes COMPRESS-373.
	Add write support for the legacy LZMA stream to 7z, this requires XZ for Java 1.6. Fixes COMPRESS-374.
	Allow the clients of ParallelScatterZipCreator to provide ZipArchiveEntryRequestSupplier. Fixes COMPRESS-375. Thanks to Plamen Totev.
	ZipArchiveInputStream now throws an Exception if it encounters a broken ZIP archive rather than signaling end-of-archive. Fixes COMPRESS-367. Thanks to Mike Mole.
	ScatterZipOutputStream didn't close the StreamCompressor causing a potential resource leak. Fixes COMPRESS-377.
	Add a version-independent link to the API docs of the latest release. Fixes COMPRESS-372.

Release 1.12 – 2016-06-21

Type	Changes	By
	Update requirement from Java 5 to 6. Fixes COMPRESS-349.	ggregory
	TarArchiveEntry wastefully allocates empty arrays. Fixes COMPRESS-350.	ggregory
	SevenZFile.read() throws an IllegalStateException for empty entries. Fixes COMPRESS-348.
	Javadoc for BZip2CompressorInputStream(InputStream, boolean) should refer to IOEx, not NPE. Fixes COMPRESS-353.	ggregory
	PureJavaCrc32C in the snappy package is now final so it is now safe to call a virtual method inside the constructor. Fixes COMPRESS-354.
	TarArchiveInputStream failed to parse PAX headers that included blank lines. Fixes COMPRESS-355. Thanks to Jeremy Gustie.
	TarArchiveInputStream failed to parse PAX headers whose tar entry name ended with a slash. Fixes COMPRESS-356. Thanks to Jeremy Gustie.
	FramedSnappyCompressorInputStream now supports the dialect of Snappy used by the IWA files contained within the ZIP archives used in Apple's iWork 13 files. Fixes COMPRESS-352.
	ZipArchiveInputStream and CpioArchiveInputStream could throw exceptions who's messages contained potentially corrupt entry names read from a broken archive. They will now sanitize the names by replacing unprintable characters and restricting the length to 255 characters. Fixes COMPRESS-351.
	BZip2CompressorOutputStream no longer tries to finish the output stream in finalize. This is a breaking change for code that relied on the finalizer. Fixes COMPRESS-357.

Release 1.11 – 2016-04-06

Type	Changes	By
	TarArchiveInputStream now supports reading global PAX headers. Fixes COMPRESS-347.
	The PAX headers for sparse entries written by star are now applied. Fixes COMPRESS-346.
	GNU sparse files using one of the PAX formats are now detected, but cannot be extracted. Fixes COMPRESS-345.
	ArArchiveInputStream can now read GNU extended names that are terminated with a NUL byte rather than a linefeed. Fixes COMPRESS-344.
	New method SevenZFile.getEntries can be used to list the contents of a 7z archive. Fixes COMPRESS-341.
	Native Memory Leak in Sevenz-DeflateDecoder. Fixes COMPRESS-343. Thanks to Rene Preissel.
	When using Zip64Mode.Always also use ZIP64 extensions inside the central directory. GitHub Pull Request #10 Thanks to Matt Hovey.
	SevenZFile will now only try to drain an entry's content when moving on to the next entry if data is read from the next entry. This should improve performance for applications that try to skip over entries. Fixes COMPRESS-340. Thanks to Dawid Weiss.
	file names of tar archives using the xstar format are now parsed properly. Fixes COMPRESS-336.
	checksums of tars that pad the checksum field to the left are now calculated properly. Fixes COMPRESS-335.
	ArArchiveInputStream failed to read past the first entry when BSD long names have been used. Fixes COMPRESS-334. Thanks to Jeremy Gustie.
	Added buffering for random access which speeds up 7Z support. Fixes COMPRESS-333. Thanks to Dawid Weiss.
	The checksum validation of TararchiveEntry is now as strict as the validation of GNU tar, which eliminates a few cases of false positives of ArchiveStreamFactory. This behavior is a breaking change since the check has become more strict but any archive that fails the checksum test now would also fail it when extracted with other tools and must be considered an invalid archive. Fixes COMPRESS-331.
	ZipFile.getRawInputStream() is now part of the public API. Fixes COMPRESS-323.
	SnappyCompressorInputStream and FramedSnappyCompressorInputStream returned 0 at the end of the stream under certain circumstances. Fixes COMPRESS-332.
	Allow byte-for-byte replication of Zip entries. GitHub Pull Request #6. Thanks to Jason van Zyl.
	TarArchiveEntry's preserveLeadingSlashes is now a property and used on later calls to setName, too. This behavior is a breaking change. Fixes COMPRESS-328.
	Adjusted unit test to updates in Java8 and later that change the logic of ZipEntry#getTime. Fixes COMPRESS-326.
	TarArchiveOutputStream will now recognize GNU long name and link entries even if the special entry has a different name than GNU tar uses itself. This seems to be the case for archives created by star. Fixes COMPRESS-324.
	ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException when InfoZIP type 7875 extra fields are read from the central directory. Fixes COMPRESS-321.
	Added read-only support for bzip2 compression used inside of ZIP archives. GitHub Pull Request #4. Thanks to Sören Glimm.

	CompressorStreamFactory can now auto-detect LZMA streams. Fixes COMPRESS-313.
	TarArchiveEntry's constructor with a File and a String arg didn't normalize the name. Fixes COMPRESS-312.
	ZipEncodingHelper no longer reads system properties directly to determine the default charset. Fixes COMPRESS-308.
	BZip2CompressorInputStream#read would return -1 when asked to read 0 bytes. Fixes COMPRESS-309.
	ArchiveStreamFactory fails to pass on the encoding when creating some streams. * ArjArchiveInputStream * CpioArchiveInputStream * DumpArchiveInputStream * JarArchiveInputStream * TarArchiveInputStream * JarArchiveOutputStream. Fixes COMPRESS-306.
	Restore immutability/thread-safety to ArchiveStreamFactory. The class is now immutable provided that the method setEntryEncoding is not used. The class is thread-safe. Fixes COMPRESS-302.
	Restore immutability/thread-safety to CompressorStreamFactory. The class is now immutable provided that the method setDecompressConcatenated is not used. The class is thread-safe. Fixes COMPRESS-303.
	SevenZFile now throws the specific PasswordRequiredException when it encounters an encrypted stream but no password has been specified. Fixes COMPRESS-298.
	Improved error message when tar encounters a groupId that is too big to write without using the STAR or POSIX format. Fixes COMPRESS-290. Thanks to Kristian Rosenvold.
	Added support for parallel compression. This low-level API allows a client to build a ZIP/jar file by using the class org.apache.commons.compress.archivers.zip.ParallelScatterZipCreator. Zip documentation updated with further notes about parallel features. Please note that some aspects of jar creation need to be handled by client code and is not part of commons-compress for this release. Fixes COMPRESS-296. Thanks to Kristian Rosenvold.
	Cut overall object instantiation in half by changing file header generation algorithm, for a 10-15 percent performance improvement. Also extracted two private methods createLocalFileHeader and createCentralFileHeader in ZipArchiveOutputStream. These may have some interesting additional usages in the near future. Thanks to Kristian Rosenvold.
	ZipFile logs a warning in its finalizer when its constructor has thrown an exception reading the file - for example if the file doesn't exist. Fixes COMPRESS-297.
	New methods in ZipArchiveOutputStream and ZipFile allows entries to be copied from one archive to another without having to re-compress them. Fixes COMPRESS-295. Thanks to Kristian Rosenvold.
	Moved the package org.apache.commons.compress.compressors.z._internal_ to org.apache.commons.compress.compressors.lzw and made it part of the API that is officially supported. This will break existing code that uses the old package. Thanks to Damjan Jovanovic.

Type	Changes	By
	Added support for DEFLATE streams without any gzip framing. Fixes COMPRESS-263. Thanks to Matthias Stevens.
	When reading 7z files unknown file properties and properties of type kDummy are now ignored. Fixes COMPRESS-287.
	Expanding 7z archives using LZMA compression could cause an EOFException. Fixes COMPRESS-286.
	Checking for XZ for Java may be expensive. The result will now be cached outside of an OSGi environment. You can use the new XZUtils#setCacheXZAvailability to overrride this default behavior. Fixes COMPRESS-285.
	Long-Name and -link or PAX-header entries in TAR archives always had the current time as last modfication time, creating archives that are different at the byte level each time an archive was built. Fixes COMPRESS-289. Thanks to Bob Robertson.

Release 1.8.1 – 2014-05-14

Type	Changes	By
	The dependency on org.tukaani:xz is now marked as optional.
	The snappy, ar and tar inputstreams might fail to read from a non-buffered stream in certain cases. Fixes COMPRESS-270.
	CompressorStreamFactory can now auto-detect Unix compress (".Z") streams. Fixes COMPRESS-272.
	IOUtils#skip might skip fewer bytes than requested even though more could be read from the stream. Fixes COMPRESS-277.
	ArchiveStreams now validate there is a current entry before reading or writing entry data. Fixes COMPRESS-276.
	ArjArchiveInputStream#canReadEntryData tested the current entry of the stream rather than its argument.
	ChangeSet#delete and deleteDir now properly deal with unnamed entries. Fixes COMPRESS-274.
	Added a few null checks to improve robustness. Fixes COMPRESS-273.
	TarArchiveInputStream failed to read archives with empty gid/uid fields. Fixes COMPRESS-278.
	TarArchiveInputStream now again throws an exception when it encounters a truncated archive while reading from the last entry. Fixes COMPRESS-279.
	Adapted TarArchiveInputStream#skip to the modified IOUtils#skip method. Fixes COMPRESS-280. Thanks to BELUGA BEHR.

Release 1.8 – 2014-03-12

Type	Changes	By
	BZip2CompressorInputStream read fewer bytes than possible from a truncated stream. Fixes COMPRESS-253.
	SevenZFile failed claiming the dictionary was too large when archives used LZMA compression for headers and content and certain non-default dictionary sizes. Fixes COMPRESS-253.
	CompressorStreamFactory.createCompressorInputStream with explicit compression did not honor decompressConcatenated. Fixes COMPRESS-259.
	GzipCompressorInputStream now provides access to the same metadata that can be provided via GzipParameters when writing a gzip stream. Fixes COMPRESS-260.
	TarArchiveInputStream will now read archives created by tar implementations that encode big numbers by not adding a trailing NUL. Fixes COMPRESS-262.
	ZipArchiveInputStream would return NUL bytes for the first 512 bytes of a STORED entry if it was the very first entry of the archive. Fixes COMPRESS-264.
	When writing PAX/POSIX headers for TAR entries with backslashes or certain non-ASCII characters in their name TarArchiveOutputStream could fail. Fixes COMPRESS-265.
	ArchiveStreamFactory now throws a StreamingNotSupported - a new subclass of ArchiveException - if it is asked to read from or write to a stream and Commons Compress doesn't support streaming for the format. This currently only applies to the 7z format. Fixes COMPRESS-267.
	SevenZOutputFile now supports chaining multiple compression/encryption/filter methods and passing options to the methods. Fixes COMPRESS-266.
	The (compression) method(s) can now be specified per entry in SevenZOutputFile. Fixes COMPRESS-261.
	SevenZArchiveEntry "knows" which method(s) have been used to write it to the archive. Fixes COMPRESS-258.
	The 7z package now supports the delta filter as method.
	The 7z package now supports BCJ filters for several platforms. You will need a version >= 1.5 of XZ for Java to read archives using BCJ, though. Fixes COMPRESS-257.

Release 1.7 – 2014-01-20

Type	Changes	By
	SevenZOutputFile#closeArchiveEntry throws an exception when using LZMA2 compression on Java8. Fixes COMPRESS-241.
	Read-Only support for Snappy compression. Fixes COMPRESS-147. Thanks to BELUGA BEHR.
	7z reading of big 64bit values could be wrong. Fixes COMPRESS-244. Thanks to Nico Kruber.
	Read-Only support for .Z compressed files. Fixes COMPRESS-243. Thanks to Damjan Jovanovic.
	ZipFile and ZipArchiveInputStream now support reading entries compressed using the SHRINKING method. Thanks to Damjan Jovanovic.
	TarArchiveInputStream could fail to read an archive completely. Fixes COMPRESS-245.
	The time-setters in X5455_ExtendedTimestamp now set the corresponding flags explicitly - i.e. they set the bit if the valus is not-null and reset it otherwise. This may cause incompatibilities if you use setFlags to unset a bit and later set the time to a non-null value - the flag will now be set. Fixes COMPRESS-242.
	GzipCompressorOutputStream now supports setting the compression level and the header metadata (filename, comment, modification time, operating system and extra flags). Fixes COMPRESS-250. Thanks to Emmanuel Bourg.
	ZipFile and ZipArchiveInputStream now support reading entries compressed using the IMPLODE method. Fixes COMPRESS-115. Thanks to Emmanuel Bourg.

Type	Changes	By
	TarBuffer.tryToConsumeSecondEOFRecord could throw a NullPointerException. Fixes COMPRESS-223. Thanks to Jeremy Gustie.
	Added support for 7z archives. Most compression algorithms can be read and written, LZMA and encryption are only supported when reading. Fixes COMPRESS-54. Thanks to Damjan Jovanovic.
	Added read-only support for ARJ archives that don't use compression. Fixes COMPRESS-226. Thanks to Damjan Jovanovic.
	Parsing of zip64 extra fields has become more lenient in order to be able to read archives created by DotNetZip and maybe other archivers as well. Fixes COMPRESS-228.
	TAR will now properly read the names of symbolic links with long names that use the GNU variant to specify the long file name. Fixes COMPRESS-229. Thanks to Christoph Gysin.
	ZipFile#getInputStream could return null if the archive contained duplicate entries. The class now also provides two new methods to obtain all entries of a given name rather than just the first one. Fixes COMPRESS-227.
	Readabilty patch to TarArchiveInputStream. Fixes COMPRESS-232. Thanks to BELUGA BEHR.
	Performance improvements to TarArchiveInputStream, in particular to the skip method. Fixes COMPRESS-234. Thanks to BELUGA BEHR.
	CpioArchiveInputStream failed to read archives created by Redline RPM. Fixes COMPRESS-236. Thanks to Andrew Duffy.
	TarArchiveOutputStream now properly handles link names that are too long to fit into a traditional TAR header. Fixes COMPRESS-237. Thanks to Emmanuel Bourg.
	DumpArchiveInputStream now supports an encoding parameter that can be used to specify the encoding of file names.
	The CPIO streams now support an encoding parameter that can be used to specify the encoding of file names.
	Read-only support for LZMA standalone compression has been added. Fixes COMPRESS-111.
	The auto-detecting create*InputStream methods of Archive and CompressorStreamFactory could fail to detect the format of blocking input streams. Fixes COMPRESS-239.

Release 1.5 – 2013-03-14

Type	Changes	By
	Typo in CompressorStreamFactory Javadoc. Fixes COMPRESS-218. Thanks to Gili.
	Improved exception message if a ZIP archive cannot be read because of an unsupported compression method. Fixes COMPRESS-188. Thanks to Harald Kuhn.
	ArchiveStreamFactory has a setting for file name encoding that sets up encoding for ZIP and TAR streams. Fixes COMPRESS-192. Thanks to Jukka Zitting.
	ArchiveStreamFactory's tar stream detection created false positives for AIFF files. Fixes COMPRESS-191. Thanks to Jukka Zitting.
	TarArchiveEntry now has a method to verify its checksum. Fixes COMPRESS-191. Thanks to Jukka Zitting.
	XZ for Java didn't provide an OSGi bundle. Compress' dependency on it has now been marked optional so Compress itself can still be used in an OSGi context. Fixes COMPRESS-199. Thanks to Jukka Zitting.
	When specifying the encoding explicitly TarArchiveOutputStream would write unreadable names in GNU mode or even cause errors in POSIX mode for file names longer than 66 characters. Fixes COMPRESS-200. Thanks to Christian Schlichtherle.
	Writing TAR PAX headers failed if the generated entry name ended with a "/". Fixes COMPRESS-203.
	ZipArchiveInputStream sometimes failed to provide input to the Inflater when it needed it, leading to reads returning 0. Fixes COMPRESS-189. Thanks to Daniel Lowe.
	Split/spanned ZIP archives are now properly detected by ArchiveStreamFactory but will cause an UnsupportedZipFeatureException when read.
	ZipArchiveInputStream now reads archives that start with a "PK00" signature. Archives with this signatures are created when the archiver was willing to split the archive but in the end only needed a single segment - so didn't split anything. Fixes COMPRESS-208.
	TarArchiveEntry has a new constructor that allows setting linkFlag and preserveLeadingSlashes at the same time. Fixes COMPRESS-201.
	ChangeSetPerformer has a new perform overload that uses a ZipFile instance as input. Fixes COMPRESS-159.
	TarArchiveInputStream ignored the encoding for GNU long name entries. Fixes COMPRESS-212.
	Garbage collection pressure has been reduced by reusing temporary byte arrays in classes. Fixes COMPRESS-172. Thanks to Thomas Mair.
	Can now handle ZIP extra field 0x5455 - Extended Timestamp. Fixes COMPRESS-210. Thanks to Julius Davies.
	handle ZIP extra field 0x7875 - Info Zip New Unix Extra Field. Fixes COMPRESS-211. Thanks to Julius Davies.

	ZipFile's initialization has been improved for non-Zip64 archives. Fixes COMPRESS-215. Thanks to Robin Power.
	TarArchiveInputStream could leave the second EOF record inside the stream it had just finished reading. Fixes COMPRESS-206. Thanks to Peter De Maeyer.
	DumpArchiveInputStream no longer implicitly closes the original input stream when it reaches the end of the archive.
	ZipArchiveInputStream now consumes the remainder of the archive when getNextZipEntry returns null.
	Unit tests could fail if the source tree was checked out to a directory tree containign spaces. Fixes COMPRESS-205. Thanks to Daniel Lowe.
	Updated XZ for Java dependency to 1.2 as this version provides proper OSGi manifest attributes.
	Fixed a potential ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException when reading STORED entries from ZipArchiveInputStream. Fixes COMPRESS-219.
	CompressorStreamFactory can now be used without XZ for Java being available. Fixes COMPRESS-221.
	CompressorStreamFactory has an option to create decompressing streams that decompress the full input for formats that support multiple concatenated streams. Fixes COMPRESS-220.

Release 1.4.1 – 2012-05-23

Type	Changes	By
	Ported libbzip2's fallback sort algorithm to BZip2CompressorOutputStream to speed up compression in certain edge cases. Using specially crafted inputs this can be used as a denial of service attack. See the security reports page for details.

Release 1.4 – 2012-04-11

Type	Changes	By
	The tar package now allows the encoding of file names to be specified and can optionally use PAX extension headers to write non-ASCII file names. The stream classes now write (or expect to read) archives that use the platform's native encoding for file names. Apache Commons Compress 1.3 used to strip everything but the lower eight bits of each character which effectively only worked for ASCII and ISO-8859-1 file names. This new default behavior is a breaking change. Fixes COMPRESS-183.
	TarArchiveInputStream failed to parse PAX headers that contained non-ASCII characters. Fixes COMPRESS-184.
	The tar package can now write archives that use star/GNU/BSD extensions or use the POSIX/PAX variant to store numeric values that don't fit into the traditional header fields. Fixes COMPRESS-182.
	Added a workaround for a Bug some tar implementations that add a NUL byte as first byte in numeric header fields. Fixes COMPRESS-181.
	Added a workaround for a Bug in WinZIP which uses backslashes as path separators in Unicode Extra Fields. Fixes COMPRESS-176.
	ArrayOutOfBounds while decompressing bz2. Added test case - code already seems to have been fixed. Fixes COMPRESS-131.
	TarArchiveInputStream throws IllegalArgumentException instead of IOException. Fixes COMPRESS-178.
	TarUtils.formatLongOctalOrBinaryBytes() assumes the field will be 12 bytes long. Fixes COMPRESS-179.
	GNU Tar sometimes uses binary encoding for UID and GID. Fixes COMPRESS-175.
	ArchiveStreamFactory.createArchiveInputStream would claim short text files were TAR archives. Fixes COMPRESS-171.
	Support for the XZ format has been added. Fixes COMPRESS-156.
	BZip2CompressorInputStream now optionally supports reading of concatenated .bz2 files. Fixes COMPRESS-146.
	GZipCompressorInputStream now optionally supports reading of concatenated .gz files. Fixes COMPRESS-154.
	ZipFile didn't work properly for archives using unicode extra fields rather than UTF-8 filenames and the EFS-Flag. Fixes COMPRESS-164.
	The tar package can now read archives that use star/GNU/BSD extensions for files that are longer than 8 GByte as well as archives that use the POSIX/PAX variant. Fixes COMPRESS-16.
	The tar package can now write archives that use star/GNU/BSD extensions for files that are longer than 8 GByte as well as archives that use the POSIX/PAX variant. Fixes COMPRESS-165.
	The tar package can now use the POSIX/PAX variant for writing entries with names longer than 100 characters. Fixes COMPRESS-166.
	For corrupt archives ZipFile would throw a RuntimeException in some cases and an IOException in others. It will now consistently throw an IOException. Fixes COMPRESS-169.

Release 1.3 – 2011-11-01

Type	Changes	By
	Support for the Pack200 format has been added. Fixes COMPRESS-142.
	Read-only support for the format used by the Unix dump(8) tool has been added. Fixes COMPRESS-132.
	The ZIP package now supports Zip64 extensions. Fixes COMPRESS-36.
	The AR package now supports the BSD dialect of storing file names longer than 16 chars (both reading and writing). Fixes COMPRESS-144.
	BZip2CompressorInputStream's getBytesRead method always returned 0.
	ZipArchiveInputStream and ZipArchiveOutputStream could leak resources on some JDKs. Fixes COMPRESS-152.
	TarArchiveOutputStream's getBytesWritten method didn't count correctly. Fixes COMPRESS-160.

Release 1.2 – 2011-07-31

Type	Changes	By
	ZipArchiveInputStream could fail with a "Truncated ZIP" error message for entries between 2 GByte and 4 GByte in size. Fixes COMPRESS-129.
	TarArchiveInputStream now detects sparse entries using the oldgnu format and properly reports it cannot extract their contents. Fixes COMPRESS-145. Thanks to Patrick Dreyer.
	ZipArchiveEntry has a new method getRawName that provides the original bytes that made up the name. This may allow user code to detect the encoding. Fixes COMPRESS-123.
	The Javadoc for ZipArchiveInputStream#skip now matches the implementation, the code has been made more defensive. Fixes COMPRESS-130.
	ArArchiveInputStream fails if entries contain only blanks for userId or groupId. Fixes COMPRESS-140. Thanks to Trejkaz.
	ZipFile may leak resources on some JDKs. Fixes COMPRESS-139.
	ZipFile now implements finalize which closes the underlying file.
	Certain tar files not recognised by ArchiveStreamFactory. Fixes COMPRESS-117.
	BZip2CompressorInputStream throws IOException if underlying stream returns available() == 0. Removed the check. Fixes COMPRESS-125.
	Calling close() on inputStream returned by CompressorStreamFactory.createCompressorInputStream() does not close the underlying input stream. Fixes COMPRESS-127.
	TarArchiveEntry provides access to the flags that determine whether it is an archived symbolic link, pipe or other "uncommon" file system object. Fixes COMPRESS-122.
	TarArchiveOutputStream#finish now writes all buffered data to the stream. Fixes COMPRESS-119.

Release 1.1 – 2010-08-13

Type	Changes	By
	Move acknowledgements from NOTICE to README. Fixes COMPRESS-72.
	TarArchiveEntry.parseTarHeader() includes the trailing space/NUL when parsing the octal size. Fixes COMPRESS-113.
	Command-line interface to list archive contents. Usage: java -jar commons-compress-n.m.jar archive-name [zip\|tar\|etc]. Fixes COMPRESS-108.
	TarUtils.parseName does not properly handle characters outside the range 0-127. Fixes COMPRESS-118.
	ArArchiveInputStream does not handle GNU extended filename records (//). Fixes COMPRESS-112.
	Tar implementation does not support Pax headers Added support for reading pax headers. Note: does not support global pax headers. Fixes COMPRESS-109.
	ArchiveStreamFactory does not recognise tar files created by Ant. Fixes COMPRESS-107.
	Support "ustar" prefix field, which is used when file paths are longer than 100 characters. Fixes COMPRESS-110.
	Document that the name of an ZipArchiveEntry determines whether an entry is considered a directory or not. If you don't use the constructor with the File argument the entry's name must end in a "/" in order for the entry to be known as a directory. Fixes COMPRESS-105.
	ZipArchiveInputStream can optionally extract data that used the STORED compression method and a data descriptor. Doing so in a stream is not safe in general, so you have to explicitly enable the feature. By default the stream will throw an exception if it encounters such an entry. Fixes COMPRESS-103.
	ZipArchiveInputStream will throw an exception if it detects an entry that uses a data descriptor for a STORED entry since it cannot reliably find the end of data for this "compression" method. Fixes COMPRESS-100.
	ZipArchiveInputStream should now properly read archives that use data descriptors but without the "unofficial" signature. Fixes COMPRESS-101.
	The ZIP classes will throw specialized exceptions if any attempt is made to read or write data that uses ZIP features not supported (yet). Fixes COMPRESS-98.
	ZipFile#getEntries returns entries in a predictable order - the order they appear inside the central directory. A new method getEntriesInPhysicalOrder returns entries in order of the entry data, i.e. the order ZipArchiveInputStream would see. Fixes COMPRESS-99.
	The Archive*Stream and ZipFile classes now have can(Read\|Write)EntryData methods that can be used to check whether a given entry's data can be read/written. The method currently returns false for ZIP archives if an entry uses an unsupported compression method or encryption.
	The ZIP classes now detect encrypted entries. Fixes COMPRESS-89.
	Move DOS/Java time conversions into Zip utility class. Fixes COMPRESS-79.
	ZipArchiveInputStream failed to update the number of bytes read properly. Fixes COMPRESS-74.
	ArchiveInputStream has a new method getBytesRead that should be preferred over getCount since the later may truncate the number of bytes read for big archives.
	The cpio archives created by CpioArchiveOutputStream couldn't be read by many existing native implementations because the archives contained multiple entries with the same inode/device combinations and weren't padded to a blocksize of 512 bytes. Fixes COMPRESS-85.
	ZipArchiveEntry, ZipFile and ZipArchiveInputStream are now more lenient when parsing extra fields. Fixes COMPRESS-73.
	ZipArchiveInputStream does not show location in file where a problem occurred. Fixes COMPRESS-75.
	cpio is terribly slow. Documented that buffered streams are needed for performance. Fixes COMPRESS-82.
	Added autodetection of compression format to CompressorStreamFactory. Fixes COMPRESS-97.
	Improved exception message if the extra field data in ZIP archives cannot be parsed.
	Tar format unspecified - current support documented. Fixes COMPRESS-17.
	Improve ExceptionMessages in ArchiveStreamFactory. Fixes COMPRESS-95. Thanks to Joerg Bellmann.
	ZipArchiveEntry's equals method was broken for entries created with the String-arg constructor. This lead to broken ZIP archives if two different entries had the same hash code. Fixes COMPRESS-94. Thanks to Anon Devs.
	ZipArchiveInputStream could repeatedly return 0 on read() when the archive was truncated. Fixes COMPRESS-87. Thanks to Antoni Mylka.
	Tar archive entries holding the file name for names longer than 100 characters in GNU longfile mode didn't properly specify they'd be using the "oldgnu" extension. Fixes COMPRESS-86.
	A new constructor of TarArchiveEntry can create entries with names that start with slashes - the default is to strip leading slashes in order to create relative path names.
	Delegate all read and write methods in GZip stream in order to speed up operations. Fixes COMPRESS-83.
	ArchiveEntry now has a getLastModifiedDate method.
	The ar and cpio streams now properly read and write last modified times.
	TarOutputStream can leave garbage at the end of the archive. Fixes COMPRESS-81.
	Add a BZip2Utils class modelled after GZipUtils. Fixes COMPRESS-78. Thanks to Jukka Zitting.
