+<h3><a name="encoding">Encoding of File Names</a></h3>
+
+<p>Traditionally the ZIP archive format uses CodePage 437 as encoding
+ for file name, which is not sufficient for many international
+ character sets.</p>
+
+<p>Over time different archivers have chosen different ways to work
+ around the limitation - the <code>java.util.zip</code> packages
+ simply uses UTF-8 as its encoding for example.</p>
+
+<p>Ant has been offering the encoding attribute of the zip and unzip
+ task as a way to explicitly specify the encoding to use (or expect)
+ since Ant 1.4. It defaults to the platform's default encoding for
+ zip and UTF-8 for jar and other jar-like tasks (war, ear, ...) as
+ well as the unzip family of tasks.</p>
+
+<p>More recent versions of the ZIP specification introduce something
+ called the "language encoding flag" which can be used to
+ signal that a file name has been encoded using UTF-8. Starting with
+ Ant 1.8.0 all zip-/jar- and similar archives written by Ant will set
+ this flag, if the encoding has been set to UTF-8. Our
+ interoperabilty tests with existing archivers didn't show any ill
+ effects (in fact, most archivers ignore the flag to date), but you
+ can turn off the "language encoding flag" by setting the attribute
+ <code>useLanguageEncodingFlag</code> to <code>false</code> on the
+ zip-task if you should encounter problems.</p>
+
+<p>The unzip (and similar tasks) -task will recognize the language
+ encoding flag and ignore the encoding set on the task if it has been
+ found.</p>
+
+<p>The InfoZIP developers have introduced new ZIP extra fields that
+ can be used to add an additional UTF-8 encoded file name to the
+ entry's metadata. Most archivers ignore these extra fields. The
+ zip family of tasks support an
+ option <code>createUnicodeExtraFields</code> since Ant 1.8.0 which
+ makes Ant write these extra fields, it defaults to false since it
+ creates a bigger archive.</p>
+
+<p>The unzip-task will recognize the unicode extra fields by default
+ and read the file name information from them, unless you set the
+ optional attribute <code>scanForUnicodeExtraFields</code> to
+ false.</p>
+
+<h4>Recommendations for Interoperability</h4>
+
+<p>The optimal setting of flags depends on the archivers you expect as
+ consumers/producers of the ZIP archives. Below are some test
+ results which may be superseeded with later versions of each
+ tool.</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>The java.util.zip package used by the jar executable or to read
+ jars from your CLASSPATH reads and writes UTF-8 names, it doesn't
+ set or recognize any flags or unicode extra fields.</li>
+
+ <li>7Zip writes CodePage 437 by default but uses UTF-8 and the
+ language encoding flag when writing entries that cannot be encoded
+ as CodePage 437. It recognizes the language encoding flag when
+ reading and ignores the unicode extra fields.</li>
+
+ <li>WinZIP writes CodePage 437 and uses unicode extra fields by
+ default. It recognizes the unicode extra field when reading and
+ ignores the language encoding flag.</li>
+
+ <li>Windows' "compressed folder" feature doesn't recognize any flag
+ or extra field and creates archives using the platforms default
+ encoding - and expects archives to be in that encoding when reading
+ them.</li>
+
+ <li>InfoZIP based tools can recognize and write both, it is a
+ compile time option and depends on the platform so your mileage
+ may vary.</li>
+
+ <li>PKWARE zip tools recognize both and prefer the language encoding
+ flag. They create archives using CodePage 437 if possible and UTF-8
+ plus the language encoding flag for file names that cannot be
+ encoded as CodePage 437.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>So, what to do?</p>
+
+<p>If you are creating jars, then java.util.zip is your main
+ consumer. We recommend you set the encoding to UTF-8 and keep the
+ language encoding flag enabled. The flag won't help or hurt
+ java.util.zip but archivers that support it will show the correct
+ file names.</p>
+
+<p>For maximum interop it is probably best to set the encoding to
+ UTF-8, enable the language encoding flag and create unicode extra
+ fields when writing ZIPs. Such archives should be extracted
+ correctly by java.util.zip, 7Zip, WinZIP, PKWARE tools and most
+ likely InfoZIP tools. They will be unusable with Windows'
+ "compressed folders" feature and bigger than archives without the
+ unicode extra fields, though.</p>
+
+<p>If Windows' "compressed folders" is your primary consumer, then
+ your best option is to explicitly set the encoding to the target
+ platform. You may want to enable creation of unicode extra fields
+ so the tools that support them will extract the file names
+ correctly.</p>
