["Leo Izen (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Leo Izen commented on COMPRESS-54:
----------------------------------

Christopher league at http://contrapunctus.net/league/haques/lzmajio/ created LzmaInputStream and LzmaOutputStream that implement the Lzma SDK files. However, it is GNU GPL, so you might have to licence software with both Gnu GPL and APL.

> Has anyone looked into adding support for 7zip and RAR file types? Using the j7zip and junrar libraries I was able to get a rough protoype working with commons-compress but only with extract support for RAR (due to licencing issues). Also, my prototype performance is poor so I definately need to improve it.
