Method Detail

parseOctal

public static long parseOctal(byte[] header,
                              int offset,
                              int length)
Parse an octal string from a header buffer. This is used for the file permission mode value.

Parameters:
header - The header buffer from which to parse.
offset - The offset into the buffer from which to parse.
length - The number of header bytes to parse.
Returns:
The long value of the octal string.

parseName

public static java.lang.StringBuffer parseName(byte[] header,
                                               int offset,
                                               int length)
Parse an entry name from a header buffer.

Parameters:
header - The header buffer from which to parse.
offset - The offset into the buffer from which to parse.
length - The number of header bytes to parse.
Returns:
The header's entry name.

getNameBytes

public static int getNameBytes(java.lang.StringBuffer name,
                               byte[] buf,
                               int offset,
                               int length)
Determine the number of bytes in an entry name.

Parameters:
name - The header name from which to parse.
offset - The offset into the buffer from which to parse.
length - The number of header bytes to parse.
Returns:
The number of bytes in a header's entry name.

getOctalBytes

public static int getOctalBytes(long value,
                                byte[] buf,
                                int offset,
                                int length)
Parse an octal integer from a header buffer.

Parameters:
value - The header value
offset - The offset into the buffer from which to parse.
length - The number of header bytes to parse.
Returns:
The integer value of the octal bytes.

getLongOctalBytes

public static int getLongOctalBytes(long value,
                                    byte[] buf,
                                    int offset,
                                    int length)
Parse an octal long integer from a header buffer.

Parameters:
value - The header value
offset - The offset into the buffer from which to parse.
length - The number of header bytes to parse.
Returns:
The long value of the octal bytes.

getCheckSumOctalBytes

public static int getCheckSumOctalBytes(long value,
                                        byte[] buf,
                                        int offset,
                                        int length)
Parse the checksum octal integer from a header buffer.

Parameters:
value - The header value
offset - The offset into the buffer from which to parse.
length - The number of header bytes to parse.
Returns:
The integer value of the entry's checksum.

computeCheckSum
