    • getDefaultExtension

      protected java.lang.String getDefaultExtension()
      Get the default extension.
      Specified by:
      getDefaultExtension in class Unpack
      Returns:
      the value ".gz"
    • extract

      protected void extract()
      Implement the gunzipping.
      Specified by:
      extract in class Unpack
    • supportsNonFileResources

      protected boolean supportsNonFileResources()
      Whether this task can deal with non-file resources.

      This implementation returns true only if this task is <gunzip>. Any subclass of this class that also wants to support non-file resources needs to override this method. We need to do so for backwards compatibility reasons since we can't expect subclasses to support resources.

      Overrides:
      supportsNonFileResources in class Unpack
      Returns:
      true if this task supports non file resources.
