> Having a CPIO archive in (e.g. UTF-8) mode and having a name entry with a name containing multi-byte characters the decoder fails.
> The problem IMHO is the "getHeaderPadCount" method, which assumes a single byte per character:
>  
> {code:java}
>     public int getHeaderPadCount(){
>         if (this.alignmentBoundary == 0) { return 0; }
>         int size = this.headerSize + 1;  // Name has terminating null
>         if (name != null) {
>             size += name.length();
>         }
>         final int remain = size % this.alignmentBoundary;
>         if (remain > 0){
>             return this.alignmentBoundary - remain;
>         }
>         return 0;
>     }
> {code}
> However this may (or may not) be true for UTF-8.
>  
> Also it wouldn't be enough to call "String#getBytes(…)" as this might already transform the underlying bytes.
> The proper solution would be to provide the name size, as read from the CPIO stream, and pass it to the entry.
