What's this all about?

7-Zip-JBinding is a java wrapper for 7-Zip C++ library. It allows extraction of many archive formats using a very fast native library directly from java through JNI. Features:


How does it work?

The 7-Zip-JBinding consists of two parts: the java part and the native part. The java part introduces a cross-platform java interface of the 7-Zip library. The native part of 7-Zip-JBinding communicates with the java part through the java jni interface and uses the corresponding native 7-Zip interface to perform operations.

Overview


It's really simple!

Getting number of packed items in an archive:
