          public ZipFile(String name)
                  throws IOException

      Opens a zip file for reading.

      Returns an input stream for reading the contents of the specified zip file entry.

      Closing this ZIP file will, in turn, close all input streams that have been returned by invocations of this method.

      Return an ordered `Stream` over the ZIP file entries. Entries appear in the `Stream` in the order they appear in the central directory of the ZIP file.
      Returns:
        an ordered `Stream` of entries in this ZIP file
      Throws:
        `IllegalStateException` - if the zip file has been closed

    - #### close

          public void close()
                     throws IOException

      Closes the ZIP file.

      Closing this ZIP file will close all of the input streams previously returned by invocations of the `getInputStream` method.

    - #### finalize

          protected void finalize()
                           throws IOException

      Ensures that the system resources held by this ZipFile object are released when there are no more references to it.

      Since the time when GC would invoke this method is undetermined, it is strongly recommended that applications invoke the `close` method as soon they have finished accessing this `ZipFile`. This will prevent holding up system resources for an undetermined length of time.

      Overrides:
        `finalize` in class `Object`
      Throws:
        `IOException` - if an I/O error has occurred
      See Also:
        `close()`
