> I'm using BZip2CompressorInputStream in Compress 1.3 to decompress a file 
> that was created with pbzip2 1.1.6 (http://compression.ca/pbzip2/).  The 
> stream ends early after 900000 bytes, truncating the rest of the 
> pbzip2-compressed file.  Decompressing the file with bunzip2 or compressing 
> the original file with bzip2 both fix the issue.  I think both pbzip2 and 
> Compress are to blame here: pbzip2 apparently does something non-standard 
> when compressing files, and Compress should handle the non-standard format 
> rather than pretending to be done decompressing.  Another option is that I'm 
> doing something wrong; in that case please let me know! :)
> Here's how the problem can be reproduced:
>  1. Generate a file that's 900000+ bytes large: dd if=/dev/zero of=1mbfile 
> count=1 bs=1M
>  2. Compress with pbzip2: pbzip2 1mbfile
>  3. Decompress with Bunzip2 class below
>  4. Notice how the resulting 1mbfile is 900000 bytes large, not 1M.
> Now compare to using bunzip2/bzip2:
>  - Do the steps above, but instead of 2, compress with bzip2: bzip2 1mbfile
>  - Do the steps above, but instead of 3, decompress with bunzip2: bunzip2 
> 1mbfile.bz2
> import java.io.*;
> import org.apache.commons.compress.compressors.bzip2.*;
> public class Bunzip2 {
>   public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
>     File inFile = new File(args[0]);
>     File outFile = new File(args[0].substring(0, args[0].length() - 4));
>     FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(inFile);
>     BZip2CompressorInputStream bz2cis =
>         new BZip2CompressorInputStream(fis);
>     BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(bz2cis);
>     BufferedOutputStream bos = new BufferedOutputStream(
>         new FileOutputStream(outFile));
>     int len;
>     byte[] data = new byte[1024];
>     while ((len = bis.read(data, 0, 1024)) >= 0) {
>       bos.write(data, 0, len);
>     }   
>     bos.close();
>     bis.close();
>   }
> }
