[jira] [Created] (ZETACOMP-72) Extra empty files added to created
zip file when packing directories explicitly
Extra empty files added to created zip file when packing directories explicitly
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: ZETACOMP-72
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZETACOMP-72
Project: Zeta Components
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Archive
Environment: win vista sp2 32bit / php 536
Reporter: gggeek
When adding a bunch of folders and files to an archive, it's nice to be able to also have empty directories in the archive.
And it's nice not to have to scan twice the set of files/folders to determine if any folder to be added is empty or not.
So what I do is:
- scan recursively a folder for any files + folders in it
- pass the resulting list to ezcarchive
What I get is a zip file that, when unzipped, has a 0-byte-sized file next to every folder (note: tested .
I guess this could be fixed by only passing a list of files to the ezcarchive, but I would thus loose empty folders in the archive.
Reading the zip spec (http://www.info-zip.org/doc/) there seems to be no cler cut indication of empty-folders treatment. Some ppl say to add folders using "/." as filename, some say to use a specific extra_header byte...

gggeek commented on ZETACOMP-72:
--------------------------------
Further testing reveals that:
- adding a trailing slash to directory names passed to the ezcarchive makes the end result better: both windows and infozip can successfully unzip a zippped file with a single empty folder in it
- windows still has problems unzippping a more complex zip built by ezcarchive
