I was thinking of zip api’s other than java’s. The field needs to be at a fixed
place in the file format whatever the name? Unless a significant api change has
been made.

They are equivalent, the suggestion to look at the sym link support in the zip
file system provider is that it's a much better fit for this extension. It
already has optiona
Hi Mike,
I think this particular field has been renamed a few times; and ZipEntry
only exposes part of the ZIP format's fields. So most likely there isn't
sufficient information for most 3rd-party ZIP processing libraries. I
personally don't really use ZipFile so am not quite sure of the recent API
Hi Alan Snyder,
Currently, JDK ZipEntry populates that extraAttributes (proposed to rename
to externalFileAttributes in JDK-8321274, PR #16952) only if the high byte
of the "version made by" field is 3 (indicating Linux compatibility) and
only records the most significant 2 bytes for the copied Zip

I was not using the Zip file system. I was processing a Zip file.

He came to core-libs-dev in Dec 2023 [1] to discuss this. The context at the

For example, with a quick check, you can find that this field itself is not a
good candidate for direct setter exposure:

I think this will require discussion on core libs before proposing APIs in this
area. I think a starting point would be explain how you might use this, esp.
with file permissions and sym links. Due
