How to unzip a password protected file in Android

Question

I want to unzip a file which is password protected.. I know how to unzip for normal zip files which are not password protected. There are some apps like Winzip which does the same thing.

Can you guys point me towards some tutorial or something which i can use to implement this?

Answer 1

If you want to implement this function into one of your Apps you can use Zip4j-Library which supports AES 128/256 Encryption and Standard Zip Encryption. The way how to use it, is very similar to standard zip libraries in java.

I came across the problem you mentioned and I found neither Zip4j nor severzipjbinding help me with this problem. After searching I found This site very useful and straightforward to use inside in your code.
