I'm not usually this dense but is this class and samples in the IBM shipped JDK, or is it a separate download? I can't seem to locate it.

The ZipDatasets sample code is an example of using java.util.zip along with
(many of) the JZOS dataset APIs.

For accessing DDs, you would typically run it under the JZOS batch launcher
which handles running java in the original address space.

Source code is included, so you are welcome to adapt it to your needs.

Check out the sample zip program supplied with JZOS -
com.ibm.jzos.sample.ZipDatasets in jzos_sample.jar.

it works with both MVS and unix files and the best thing is that for MVS
input files, only the  high level qualifier
has to be specified in the parm field (no DD statements) and all files
beginning with that HLQ will be zipped into 1 archive.
And the archive file is in the right code page to work with pc products
like pzkip.
Interesting.  In fact, I see:


http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/zos/javadoc/jzos/com/ibm/jzos/sample/ZipDatasets.html

... many wildcarding options; not merely HLQ.  And it will operate on
DDNAMEs.
For that I'd suspect _BPX_SHAREAS=MUST is required.  "Datasets are treated
as
text ..." might be a restriction in some cases.  No load modules?
