Problems with java.util.zip

807589Dec 2 2008 — edited Dec 3 2008
I've got a odd problem here. I'm not sure if this is the appropriate forum but I couldn't find anyplace more appropriate.

So the problem is...

I create my ZIP file and if I open it in WinZip, no problem. But if I open the ZIP file using the 'Compressed Folders' feature of Windows Explorer I don't see any of the files. As far as I can tell, if the files I ZIP up do not contain any path information then they open fine via 'Compressed Folders'.

Is this a bug in java.util.zip? Or is the 'Compressed Folders' feature in Windows Explorer half-baked?

And finally is there any way for me to not include the path information of the files added to ZIP?

Thanks.
