Hello,
Is it possibly to zip a file with the java api without storing the full path of the file being zipped? The winrar GUI has an option to do it, I want to get the same result but inside a java app.
Thank you very much in advance...

ZipOutputStream takes an OutputStream in the constructor.
So, you can create the ZipOutputStream over a ByteArrayOutputStream and keep writing.
ByteArrayOutputStream will have the zipped data and you need not write it anywhere on the file system and hence do not need any path.
Does this answer your question?

ZipEntry can have any name set when you create it. Play around with that.
