Bit 12: Reserved by PKWARE for enhanced compression.
Bit 13: Used when encrypting the Central Directory to indicate
selected data values in the Local Header are masked to
hide their actual values. See the section describing
the Strong Encryption Specification for details.
Bit 14: Reserved by PKWARE.
Bit 15: Reserved by PKWARE.
compression method: (2 bytes)
(see accompanying documentation for algorithm
descriptions)
0 - The file is stored (no compression)
1 - The file is Shrunk
2 - The file is Reduced with compression factor 1
3 - The file is Reduced with compression factor 2
4 - The file is Reduced with compression factor 3
5 - The file is Reduced with compression factor 4
6 - The file is Imploded
7 - Reserved for Tokenizing compression algorithm
8 - The file is Deflated
9 - Enhanced Deflating using Deflate64(tm)
10 - PKWARE Data Compression Library Imploding
11 - Reserved by PKWARE
12 - File is compressed using BZIP2 algorithm
date and time fields: (2 bytes each)
The date and time are encoded in standard MS-DOS format.
If input came from standard input, the date and time are
those at which compression was started for this data.
If encrypting the central directory and general purpose bit
flag 13 is set indicating masking, the value stored in the
Local Header will be zero.
CRC-32: (4 bytes)
The CRC-32 algorithm was generously contributed by
David Schwaderer and can be found in his excellent
book "C Programmers Guide to NetBIOS" published by
Howard W. Sams & Co. Inc. The 'magic number' for
the CRC is 0xdebb20e3. The proper CRC pre and post
conditioning is used, meaning that the CRC register
is pre-conditioned with all ones (a starting value
of 0xffffffff) and the value is post-conditioned by
taking the one's complement of the CRC residual.
If bit 3 of the general purpose flag is set, this
field is set to zero in the local header and the correct
value is put in the data descriptor and in the central
directory. If encrypting the central directory and general
purpose bit flag 13 is set indicating masking, the value
stored in the Local Header will be zero.
compressed size: (4 bytes)
uncompressed size: (4 bytes)
The size of the file compressed and uncompressed,
respectively. If bit 3 of the general purpose bit flag
is set, these fields are set to zero in the local header
and the correct values are put in the data descriptor and
in the central directory. If an archive is in zip64 format
and the value in this field is 0xFFFFFFFF, the size will be
in the corresponding 8 byte zip64 extended information
extra field. If encrypting the central directory and general
purpose bit flag 13 is set indicating masking, the value stored
for the uncompressed size in the Local Header will be zero.
