PACKAGING FILES HAVING AUTOMATIC CONVERSION ACROSS PLATFORMS

摘要

A client receives a response to a request from a client to a server to extract files from a software package. The reply includes an archive file of the files and attribute information for the files. The files and the attribute information are extracted from the archive file. The client determines that at least one of the files is associated with a first encoding different than a second encoding of the client. With the attribute information, the client determines that the at least one of the files is not a binary file. The client translates the at least one file from the first encoding to the second encoding.
