[jira] [Created] (COMPRESS-165) Support writing entries > 8GiB in
tar
Support writing entries > 8GiB in tar
-------------------------------------
Key: COMPRESS-165
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-165
Project: Commons Compress
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Archivers
Affects Versions: 1.3
Reporter: Stefan Bodewig
We already parse PAX headers and the star/GNU tar/BSD tar dialects used for big
entries.
Similar to the way we handle long file names there should be a user option to chose
between "error", "star" and "posix" or "pax". "star" is Jörg Schilling's tar which was the
first one to use the binary size representation later adopted by GNU and BSD tar as well.
