public class JarOutputStream extends ZipOutputStream
The `JarOutputStream` class is used to write the contents of a JAR file to any output stream. It extends the class `java.util.zip.ZipOutputStream` with support for writing an optional `Manifest` entry. The `Manifest` can be used to specify meta-information about the JAR file and its entries.

Since:
  1.2

- ## 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
