I had asked the same question in a java newsgrroup some time ago, somebody
replied with the following source which really helped me.
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.util.zip.*;
import java.text.*;
class UnZip {
public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException {
InputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(new
FileInputStream(args[0]));
ZipInputStream zin = new ZipInputStream(in);
ZipEntry e;
while((e=zin.getNextEntry())!= null) {
if (args.length > 1) {
if (e.getName().equals(args[1])) {
unzip(zin, args[1]);
break;
}
}
unzip(zin, e.getName());
}
zin.close();
}
public static void unzip(ZipInputStream zin, String s) throws IOException {
System.out.println("unzipping " + s);
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(s);
byte [] b = new byte[512];
int len = 0;
while ( (len=zin.read(b))!= -1 ) {
out.write(b,0,len);
}
out.close();
}
}
Have fun!
