public class JarInputStream
extends ZipInputStream

The `JarInputStream` class is used to read the contents of a JAR file from any input stream. It extends the class `java.util.zip.ZipInputStream` with support for reading an optional `Manifest` entry. The `Manifest` can be used to store meta-information about the JAR file and its entries.

Since:
  1.2

Constructor Detail

### JarInputStream

    public JarInputStream(InputStream in)
                   throws IOException

  Creates a new `JarInputStream` and reads the optional manifest. If a manifest is present, also attempts to verify the signatures if the JarInputStream is signed.
  Parameters:
    `in` - the actual input stream
  Throws:
    `IOException` - if an I/O error has occurred

### JarInputStream

    public JarInputStream(InputStream in,
                          boolean verify)
                   throws IOException

  Creates a new `JarInputStream` and reads the optional manifest. If a manifest is present and verify is true, also attempts to verify the signatures if the JarInputStream is signed.
  Parameters:
    `in` - the actual input stream
    `verify` - whether or not to verify the JarInputStream if it is signed.
  Throws:
    `IOException` - if an I/O error has occurred

Method Detail

### getManifest

    public Manifest getManifest()

  Returns the `Manifest` for this JAR file, or `null` if none.
  Returns:
    the `Manifest` for this JAR file, or `null` if none.

### getNextEntry

    public ZipEntry getNextEntry()
                          throws IOException

  Reads the next ZIP file entry and positions stream at the beginning of the entry data.
  Overrides:
    `getNextEntry` in class `ZipInputStream`
  Throws:
    `ZipException` - if a ZIP file error has occurred
    `IOException` - if an I/O error has occurred

### getNextJarEntry

    public JarEntry getNextJarEntry()
                             throws IOException

  Reads the next JAR file entry and positions the stream at the beginning of the entry data.
  Returns:
    the next JAR file entry
  Throws:
    `ZipException` - if a ZIP file error has occurred
    `IOException` - if an I/O error has occurred

### read

    public int read(byte[] b,
                    int off,
                    int len)
             throws IOException

  Reads from the current JAR file entry into an array of bytes. Blocks until some input is available.
  Overrides:
    `read` in class `ZipInputStream`
  Parameters:
    `b` - the buffer into which the data is read
    `off` - the start offset of the data
    `len` - the maximum number of bytes to read
  Returns:
    the actual number of bytes read, or -1 if the end of the entry is reached
  Throws:
    `ZipException` - if a ZIP file error has occurred
    `IOException` - if an I/O error has occurred

### createZipEntry

    protected ZipEntry createZipEntry(String name)

  Creates a new `JarEntry` (`ZipEntry`) for the specified JAR file entry name.
  Overrides:
    `createZipEntry` in class `ZipInputStream`
  Parameters:
    `name` - the name of the JAR/ZIP file entry
  Returns:
    the `JarEntry` object just created
