How to create an empty ZIP file?

807589Aug 21 2008 — edited Aug 21 2008
Hi,

when I try to create a ZIP file using java.util.zip.ZipOutputStream,

never call putNextEntry(ZipEntry),

but do close the stream,

the result is a 0-byte file instead of a valid empty ZIP file.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.
