----------------------------------

             Summary: File listing and random access of 7Z files
                 Key: COMPRESS-320
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-320
             Project: Commons Compress
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Archivers
            Reporter: Bill Chen
            Priority: Minor


I guess these must be one of the most wanted features and it should be very simple to implement (as I have done one in 126 lines).

Most (if not all) of the infrastructure is already there, including an index of all files. And, with some careful coding, the capability to read any of them in any order concurrently was not difficult to add.

My code uses loads of lambda and reflection stuff, but I am happy to contribute a clean Java 5/6 implementation.
