- - ### Field Detail

    - #### public static final String ZIP_EXTENSION

  - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### public Zip()

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### @Override protected org.gradle.api.internal.file.copy.CopyAction createCopyAction()

    - #### protected org.gradle.api.internal.file.copy.ZipCompressor getCompressor()

    - #### @Deprecated public String getEncoding()

      The character set used to encode ZIP metadata like file names. Defaults to the platform's default character set.

      deprecated:
        Use getMetadataCharset() instead
      Returns:
        null if using the platform's default character set for ZIP metadata

    - #### public ZipEntryCompression getEntryCompression()

      Returns the compression level of the entries of the archive. If set to ZipEntryCompression.DEFLATED (the default), each entry is compressed using the DEFLATE algorithm. If set to ZipEntryCompression.STORED the entries of the archive are left uncompressed.

      Returns:
        the compression level of the archive contents.

    - #### @Incubating @Input @Optional public String getMetadataCharset()

      The character set used to encode ZIP metadata like file names. Defaults to the platform's default character set.

      Returns:
        null if using the platform's default character set for ZIP metadata
      Since:
        2.14

    - #### @Incubating public boolean isZip64()

      Whether the zip can contain more than 65535 files and/or support files greater than 4GB in size.

      The standard zip format has hard limits on file size and count. The Zip64 format extension practically removes these limits and is therefore required for building large zips.

      However, not all Zip readers support the Zip64 extensions. Notably, the ZipInputStream JDK class does not support Zip64 for versions earlier than Java 7. This means you should not enable this property if you are building JARs to be used with Java 6 and earlier runtimes.

    - #### @Deprecated public void setEncoding(String encoding)

      The character set used to encode ZIP metadata like file names. Defaults to the platform's default character set.

      deprecated:
        Use setMetadataCharset(String) instead
      Parameters:
        `encoding` - the character set used to encode ZIP metadata like file names

    - #### public void setEntryCompression(ZipEntryCompression entryCompression)

      Sets the compression level of the entries of the archive. If set to ZipEntryCompression.DEFLATED (the default), each entry is compressed using the DEFLATE algorithm. If set to ZipEntryCompression.STORED the entries of the archive are left uncompressed.

      Parameters:
        `entryCompression` - `STORED` or `DEFLATED`

    - #### @Incubating public void setMetadataCharset(String metadataCharset)

      The character set used to encode ZIP metadata like file names. Defaults to the platform's default character set.

      Parameters:
        `metadataCharset` - the character set used to encode ZIP metadata like file names
      Since:
        2.14

    - #### @Incubating public void setZip64(boolean allowZip64)

      Enables building zips with more than 65535 files or bigger than 4GB.
