This package provides Java classes to read and write Zip files. There are a number of different libraries that do this (including one built into the JDK) but I've not found any that gave me precise controls over the Zip internal, persisted data structures. This library allows you to control the output in all Zip fields which should allow you to read and re-write Zip files with full precision.

The change log file shows the various features and bug fixes in each version.
