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.
