Do you happen to know a few of the zip tools the current implementation has been tested with? Let me add that the purpose of the change is mainly to facilitate automated testing of Zip64 features without the need to create ZIP files with sizes exceeding the 0XFFFFFF limit. (I am not aware of any existing zip tools producing such small Zip64 files, but they would be valid according to the APPNOTE format description) ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/12524#issuecomment-1427101204
