--------------------------------------------------------------
java.util.zip and winzip32.exe can NOT operate zip-files including
Japanese Path well. so-called garbled characters!! (UTF-8 vs MS932)
Please resolve this too!!
-----
This is a kind of internationalization bug, too.
Because most ZIP application encode/decode file entries in platform's
native encoding, Java ZIP application isn't compatible with them.
I recommend to add a charset parameter to ZIP-related methods.
-----
And the bug is still in the newest JDK1.4.
We hope this problem can be resolved sooner.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Java2's java.util.zip cannot get files properly from a zipfile which is
made with Winzip which is commonly-used zip/unzip software when Japanese
name is included in the zipfile.
This is very inconvenient for Japanese developers and users.
