I want to put some compressed data into a remote repository.
To put data on this repository I can only use a method that take the name of the resource and its content as a String. (like data.txt + "hello world").
The repository is moking a filesystem but is not, so I can not use File directly.
I want to be able to do the following:
- client send to server a file 'data.txt'
- server compress 'data.txt' into a compressed file 'data.zip'
- server send a string representation of data.zip to the repository
- repository store data.zip
- client download from repository data.zip and his able to open it with its favorite zip tool
The problem arise at step 3 when I try to get a string representation of my compressed file.
Here is a sample class, using the zip*stream and that emulate the repository showcasing my problem.
The created zip file is working, but after its 'serialization' it's get corrupted.
(the sample class use jakarta commons.io )
Many thanks for your help.
