- - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### GZip

          public GZip()

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### pack

          protected void pack()

      perform the GZip compression operation.
      Specified by:
        `pack` in class `Pack`

    - #### supportsNonFileResources

          protected boolean supportsNonFileResources()

      Whether this task can deal with non-file resources.

      This implementation returns true only if this task is <gzip>. Any subclass of this class that also wants to support non-file resources needs to override this method. We need to do so for backwards compatibility reasons since we can't expect subclasses to support resources.

      Overrides:
        `supportsNonFileResources` in class `Pack`
      Returns:
        true if this case supports non file resources.
