Better support for non-MSDOS "external" file attributes #4

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
As described in the "external file attributes" section of the spec:
https://www.pkware.com/documents/APPNOTE/APPNOTE-6.3.2.TXT

Currently, the library doesn't even attempt to parse these so extraction on any 
modern OS will almost certainly result in default (and possibly incorrect) file 
system attributes. This is relatively minor, since the library isn't intended 
to replace well-known command-line tools like "zip" and "jar", but it should 
still be fixed.

This issue is no longer relevant. The new patch generation and application logic does not care about or parse this information.
