Pack200.Unpacker (Java Platform SE 8 )

Enclosing class:

Pack200
```
public static interface Pack200.Unpacker
```
The unpacker engine converts the packed stream to a JAR file. An instance of the engine can be obtained using Pack200.newUnpacker().
Every JAR file produced by this engine will include the string "PACK200" as a zip file comment. This allows a deployer to detect if a JAR archive was packed and unpacked.
Note: Unless otherwise noted, passing a null argument to a constructor or method in this class will cause a NullPointerException to be thrown.
This version of the unpacker is compatible with all previous versions.

Since:

1.5

Field Summary

Fields
Modifier and Type	Field and Description
`static String`	`DEFLATE_HINT` Property indicating that the unpacker should ignore all transmitted values for DEFLATE_HINT, replacing them by the given value, `TRUE` or `FALSE`.
`static String`	`FALSE` The string "false", a possible value for certain properties.
`static String`	`KEEP` The string "keep", a possible value for certain properties.
`static String`	`PROGRESS` The unpacker's progress as a percentage, as periodically updated by the unpacker.
`static String`	`TRUE` The string "true", a possible value for certain properties.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods Default Methods Deprecated Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`default void`	`addPropertyChangeListener(PropertyChangeListener listener)` Deprecated. The dependency on `PropertyChangeListener` creates a significant impediment to future modularization of the Java platform. This method will be removed in a future release. Applications that need to monitor progress of the unpacker can poll the value of the `PROGRESS` property instead.
`SortedMap<String,String>`	`properties()` Get the set of this engine's properties.
`default void`	`removePropertyChangeListener(PropertyChangeListener listener)` Deprecated. The dependency on `PropertyChangeListener` creates a significant impediment to future modularization of the Java platform. This method will be removed in a future release.
`void`	`unpack(File in, JarOutputStream out)` Read a Pack200 archive, and write the encoded JAR to a JarOutputStream.
`void`	`unpack(InputStream in, JarOutputStream out)` Read a Pack200 archive, and write the encoded JAR to a JarOutputStream.

  - KEEP
```
static final String KEEP
```
    The string "keep", a possible value for certain properties.

  - TRUE
```
static final String TRUE
```
    The string "true", a possible value for certain properties.

    DEFLATE_HINT, Constant Field Values
  - FALSE
```
static final String FALSE
```
    The string "false", a possible value for certain properties.
    
    See Also:

  - DEFLATE_HINT
```
static final String DEFLATE_HINT
```
    Property indicating that the unpacker should ignore all transmitted values for DEFLATE_HINT, replacing them by the given value, TRUE or FALSE. The default value is the special string KEEP, which asks the unpacker to preserve all transmitted deflation hints.
    
    See Also:
    
    Constant Field Values
  - PROGRESS
```
static final String PROGRESS
```
    The unpacker's progress as a percentage, as periodically updated by the unpacker. Values of 0 - 100 are normal, and -1 indicates a stall. Progress can be monitored by polling the value of this property.
    At a minimum, the unpacker must set progress to 0 at the beginning of a packing operation, and to 100 at the end.

```
SortedMap<String,String> properties()
```
    Get the set of this engine's properties. This set is a "live view", so that changing its contents immediately affects the Packer engine, and changes from the engine (such as progress indications) are immediately visible in the map.
    The property map may contain pre-defined implementation specific and default properties. Users are encouraged to read the information and fully understand the implications, before modifying pre-existing properties.
    Implementation specific properties are prefixed with a package name associated with the implementor, beginning with com. or a similar prefix. All property names beginning with pack. and unpack. are reserved for use by this API.
    Unknown properties may be ignored or rejected with an unspecified error, and invalid entries may cause an unspecified error to be thrown.
    
    Returns:
    
    A sorted association of option key strings to option values.
  - unpack
```
void unpack(InputStream in,
            JarOutputStream out)
     throws IOException
```
    Read a Pack200 archive, and write the encoded JAR to a JarOutputStream. The entire contents of the input stream will be read. It may be more efficient to read the Pack200 archive to a file and pass the File object, using the alternate method described below.
    Closes its input but not its output. (The output can accumulate more elements.)
    
    Parameters:
    
    in - an InputStream.
    
    out - a JarOutputStream.
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException - if an error is encountered.
  - unpack
```
void unpack(File in,
            JarOutputStream out)
     throws IOException
```
    Read a Pack200 archive, and write the encoded JAR to a JarOutputStream.
    Does not close its output. (The output can accumulate more elements.)
    
    Parameters:
    
    in - a File.
    
    out - a JarOutputStream.
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException - if an error is encountered.
  - addPropertyChangeListener
```
@Deprecated
default void addPropertyChangeListener(PropertyChangeListener listener)
```
    Deprecated. The dependency on PropertyChangeListener creates a significant impediment to future modularization of the Java platform. This method will be removed in a future release. Applications that need to monitor progress of the unpacker can poll the value of the PROGRESS property instead.
    
    Registers a listener for PropertyChange events on the properties map. This is typically used by applications to update a progress bar.
    The default implementation of this method does nothing and has no side-effects.
    
    WARNING: This method is omitted from the interface declaration in all subset Profiles of Java SE that do not include the java.beans package.
    
    Parameters:
    
    listener - An object to be invoked when a property is changed.
    
    See Also:
    
    properties(), PROGRESS
  - removePropertyChangeListener
```
@Deprecated
default void removePropertyChangeListener(PropertyChangeListener listener)
```
    Deprecated. The dependency on PropertyChangeListener creates a significant impediment to future modularization of the Java platform. This method will be removed in a future release.
    
    Remove a listener for PropertyChange events, added by the addPropertyChangeListener(java.beans.PropertyChangeListener).
    The default implementation of this method does nothing and has no side-effects.
    
    WARNING: This method is omitted from the interface declaration in all subset Profiles of Java SE that do not include the java.beans package.
    
    Parameters:
    
    listener - The PropertyChange listener to be removed.
    
    See Also:
    
    addPropertyChangeListener(java.beans.PropertyChangeListener)
