> The various Zip/Jar-file related Java APIs have some long-standing differences or peculiarities with respect to the ZIP-file specification or compared to other implementations which should be documented in the API-doc. This documents the following:
> - Cache of JAR files in JarURLConnection class
> - Cache of JAR/ZIP files in JarFile and ZipFile classes
> - Unexpected behavior when parsing ZIP files with duplicate entries in JarFile and ZipFile classes, as well as the zipfs provider
> - Directories and filenames with the same name considered to be the same in ZipFile class
> - Possible issues when local and central headers conflict in ZipInputStream class
> 
> Related JBS report:
