Compressing Java Class Files

Compressing Java Class Files
Java class files are often distributed as jar files, which are collections of individually compressed class files (and possibility other files). Jar files are typically about 1/2 the size of the original class files due to compression. I have developed a wire-code format for collections of Java class files. This format is typically 1/2 to 1/5 of the size of the corresponding compressed jar file (1/4 to 1/10 the size of the original class files).
