[jira] Commented: (COMPRESS-93) Support for alternative ZIP compression methods

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-93?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12841698#action_12841698 ] 

Trejkaz commented on COMPRESS-93:
---------------------------------

What might be nice is an API for plugging in alternative compressors / decompressors.  That way when one is missing it can be dropped in without waiting for Commons Compress itself to add it.  This would be handy for projects like ours where a large number of alternative compressors are already available, although not necessarily possible to contribute. :-/

> As reported in TIKA-346, a ZIP file that uses a compression method other than STORED (0) or DEFLATED (8) will cause an IllegalArgumentException ("invalid compression method") to be thrown.
> It would be great if commons-compress supported alternative compression methods or at least degraded more gracefully when encountering them.
