 New Comment:

As the compression mechanisms are stored within the zip file itself, it
isn't 
necessarily a requirement for php_zip to support
compression/decompression of these 
types, just identification.

Using WinZip V15.0, I've created an archive with CM_PPMD, CM_LZMA,
CM_BZIP and 
CM_WAVPACK compressions.

Still looking for LZ77 and Terse.

The compression types are correctly identified by php_zip, so having the
constants 
makes sense to me.

I'll update the documentation to say that whilst identification of these
types is 
performed, compression and decompression of these types is not currently
supported.

Are you sure all compression modes are implemented? I don't think they
are, afair 
that's also why I did not add them.

Patch Name: missing_zip_constants.patch
Revision:   1296136529
URL:       
http://bugs.php.net/patch-display.php?bug=53854&patch=missing_zip_constants.patch&revision=1296136529

Description:
------------
ext/zip internally uses several constants to identify the nature of the
compressed 
content.

Not all of these are exposed, though one of them is documented 
(ZipArchive::CM_BZIP2).

The attached patch for ext/zip/php_zip.c adds the missing constants.

Once this is committed, I can update the documentation with the others
(LZMA, 
TERSE, LZ77, WAVPACK and PPMD).
