Hi,
~
 based on the data definifion of the struct holding TarArchiveEntry's
properties:
~
 
http://commons.apache.org/compress/apidocs/org/apache/commons/compress/archivers/tar/TarArchiveEntry.html
~
struct header {
 char name[100];     // TarConstants.NAMELEN    - offset   0
 char mode[8];       // TarConstants.MODELEN    - offset 100
 char uid[8];        // TarConstants.UIDLEN     - offset 108
 char gid[8];        // TarConstants.GIDLEN     - offset 116
 char size[12];      // TarConstants.SIZELEN    - offset 124
 char mtime[12];     // TarConstants.MODTIMELEN - offset 136
 char chksum[8];     // TarConstants.CHKSUMLEN  - offset 148
 char linkflag[1];   //                         - offset 156
 char linkname[100]; // TarConstants.NAMELEN    - offset 157
 The following fields are only present in new-style POSIX tar archives:
 char magic[6];      // TarConstants.MAGICLEN   - offset 257
 char version[2];    // TarConstants.VERSIONLEN - offset 263
 char uname[32];     // TarConstants.UNAMELEN   - offset 265
 char gname[32];     // TarConstants.GNAMELEN   - offset 297
 char devmajor[8];   // TarConstants.DEVLEN     - offset 329
 char devminor[8];   // TarConstants.DEVLEN     - offset 337
 char prefix[155];   // TarConstants.PREFIXLEN  - offset 345
 // Used if "name" field is not long enough to hold the path
 char pad[12];       // NULs                    - offset 500
 } header;
~
 TarArchive entries, as zip ones, should have some checksum mechanism.
However, in the API I don't see a way to "get" it and "check" it. Zip
files hace Adler and/or CRC32 checksums
~
 Anything checksums internally kept in TarArchive entries?
~
 Thank you
 lbrtchx
