## Constructor Details

### JarOutputStream

public JarOutputStream(OutputStream out, Manifest man) throws IOException
Creates a new `JarOutputStream` with the specified `Manifest`. The manifest is written as the first entry to the output stream.

Parameters:
  `out` - the actual output stream
  `man` - the optional `Manifest`
Throws:
  `IOException` - if an I/O error has occurred

### JarOutputStream

public JarOutputStream(OutputStream out) throws IOException
Creates a new `JarOutputStream` with no manifest.

Parameters:
  `out` - the actual output stream
Throws:
  `IOException` - if an I/O error has occurred

## Method Details

### putNextEntry

public void putNextEntry(ZipEntry ze) throws IOException
Begins writing a new JAR file entry and positions the stream to the start of the entry data. This method will also close any previous entry.

The default compression method will be used if no compression method was specified for the entry. When writing a compressed (DEFLATED) entry, and the compressed size has not been explicitly set with the `ZipEntry.setCompressedSize(long)` method, then the compressed size will be set to the actual compressed size after deflation.

The current time will be used if the entry has no set modification time.

Overrides:
  `putNextEntry` in class `ZipOutputStream`
Parameters:
  `ze` - the ZIP/JAR entry to be written
Throws:
  `ZipException` - if a ZIP error has occurred
  `IOException` - if an I/O error has occurred
