Stefan Bodewig commented on COMPRESS-200:
-----------------------------------------

First of all sorry for the long hiatus, I won't promise any changes, but let's 
see.

I've committed a unit test with svn revision 1426276 - 
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/commons/proper/compress/trunk/src/test/java/org/apache/commons/compress/archivers/tar/TarArchiveOutputStreamTest.java?r1=1426276&r2=1426275&pathrev=1426276
 and it passes.

I'll look into Christian's analysis more closely soonish - if we really are 
using the ByteBuffer the wrong way (quite possible), then this may also affect 
the zip package.  Anyway, it would be good if we had a unit test that actually 
failed before I start "fixing" it.

Unfortunately java.net is in a bad mood right now and I can't get to the thread 
refered to in the JIRA ticket over there - and I can't create an account in 
TrueZIP's JIRA right now either.

> When using TarArchiveOutputStream.LONGFILE_GNU with an entry name of more 
> than 66 US-ASCII characters, a round trip conversion (write the entry, then 
> read it back) fails because of several bugs in TarArchiveOutputStream and 
> TarArchiveInputStream.
> This has been reported as an issue to TrueZIP, which is why you can find a 
> more detailed analysis here: http://java.net/jira/browse/TRUEZIP-286 .
