Stefan Bodewig commented on COMPRESS-380:
-----------------------------------------
I'm looking at the zlib infback9 files linked in the description of this issue.
DEFLATE64 isn't documented officially by PKWARE,
http://binaryessence.com/dct/imp/en000225.htm is useful to see the differences
to DEFLATE. A DEFLATE64 decoder should be able to decode a DEFLATE stream that
doesn't use the length code 285 (i.e. with no distance of exactly 258 bytes).
> Support for ENHANCED_DEFLATED (Deflate64) in ZIP files
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: COMPRESS-380
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-380
> Project: Commons Compress
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Dawid Weiss
> Fix For: 1.16
>
> Attachments: archive-deflate.zip, archive-deflate64.zip, archive.zip,
> archive64.zip, compress-380.diff, hello.world, input2
>
>
> Some of the (large) ZIP files we try to process currently will throw this:
> {code}
> UnsupportedZipFeatureException: unsupported feature method
> 'ENHANCED_DEFLATED'
> {code}
> which is a bummer since JDK's implementation also doesn't support Deflate64.
> This seems to be PKWare's extensions, although code to decrypt it exists in
> zlib (and is appropriately licensed, I believe).
