Al Sorry about that. You are right, please accept my apologies.
Do you want to paste your full code, I want to give it a try and see what happens.

Perhaps I should clarify: Even if my code is simply: File file = "SomeFile.zip"; ZipFile zip = new ZipFile(file); ...I still get the following output on stderr: Allocating ZIP comments array Added ZIP comment "Test comment 1" Added ZIP comment "Test comment 2" Added ZIP comment "Test comment 3" This is bizarre behaviour and is not down to incorrect use of the API! It almost looks as if some debug code was left in the JVM implementation (!). Since zip file entries rarely have comments attached, you might never see this behaviour, however, the zip files I am concerned with can use comments for metadata... > -----Original Message----- > From: Jason Bell (Pharmalicensing) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: 06 February 2003 15:33 > To: JDJList > Subject: [jdjlist] Re: Unexpected std err output from > ZipEntry comments > > > > Someone is obviously not reading the API docs right are they? > > http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/api/java/util/zip/ZipEntry.html > or http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/java/util/zip/ZipEntry.html > > Look at the method getComment() > > Jase Bell > --- > Jason Bell - J2SE Editor > Java Developers Journal > e: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > | -------Original Message------- > | From: Alastair Rodgers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > | Sent: 02/05/03 12:26 PM > | To: JDJList <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > | Subject: [jdjlist] Unexpected std err output from ZipEntry comments > | > | > > | > I'm using java.util.zip.ZipFile to check the contents of > a zip file. > | > The > | zip file in question has comments attached to each zip entry.
