How to check if a generated zip file is corrupted?

Question

we have a piece of code which generates a zip file on our system. Everything is ok, but sometimes this zip file while opened by FilZip or WinZip is considered to be corrupte

Answer 1

in my implementation it looks like that. maybe it helps you:

//[...]

try {
    FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(file);
    BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(fis);

    zos.putNextEntry(new ZipEntry(file.getName()));

    try {
        final byte[] buf = new byte[BUFFER_SIZE];
        while (true) {
            final int len = bis.read(buf);
            if (len == -1) {
                break;
            }
            zos.write(buf, 0, len);
        }
        zos.flush();
        zos.closeEntry();
    } finally {
        try {
            bis.close();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            LOG.debug("Buffered Stream closing failed");
        } finally {
            fis.close();
        }
    }
} catch (IOException e) {
    throw new Exception(e);
}

//[...]
zos.close
