Description Eiji Morito CLA 2007-04-24 07:16:00 EDT 
Build ID: I20070323-1616

Steps To Reproduce:
1. Create any project.
2. Create a file which the name including non ASCII characters.
3. Export the file with Archive File export wizard, and check 'Save in zip format' option.
4. Unzip the zip file with general unzip tool, e.g. WinZip.
5. The unzipped file name is not same as zipped file name.


More information:
Usually, encoding of file system is used for the file name stored in the zip file. But eclipse uses UTF-8. 
Therefore, file names are garbled when unzipped by general unzip tool, such as WinZip.
Eclipse should use default encoding for storing file names into the zip file. Or, should provide option to specify encoding of file names.
Unzip ant task and zip ant task have option for filename encoding. Therefore, I think it's better to provide filename encoding option in archive file exporting wizard.

Winzip does not use the same format as java.util.Zip. Can you import back into Eclipse?

(In reply to comment #1)
Yes, I can import back into Ecplise, if the zip file is exported with Eclipse.
But I cannot import the zip file, if the zip file is created by general zip
tool.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
