[jira] [Commented] (COMPRESS-272) CompressorStreamFactory fails to
autodetect files using Unix compress (.Z files)
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-272?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13967500#comment-13967500 ]
Stefan Bodewig commented on COMPRESS-272:
-----------------------------------------
For 1.7 and 1.8 this is a documentation bug that I intend to rectify soon, for 1.9 we'll implement auto-detection.

> Key: COMPRESS-272
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-272
> Project: Commons Compress
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Compressors
> Affects Versions: 1.7
> Reporter: Paul Blizniak
> Fix For: 1.9

> I use the factory classes quite extensively to guess the correct implementation of a file that needs to be unpacked. The current doc does list that for lzma and 7zip files, the auto detect will not work. I have worked around this by looking at the file extension, and hope that its correct.
> For .Z files, I can only uncompress the file if I explicitly tell the factory that its using .Z compression, the auto detect never works. I'm using 1.7, but I dont think its fixed in 1.8 either (after looking at the bug fix list).
> Either its a bug in the doc, or in the auto detect of the compressor factory.
