InputStream to File
I have a program where I am reading a bunch of files from a Zip Folder. In order to process each file with the external library that I am using, I need to use those files as File objects instead of the InputStreams that I retrieving them as from the Zip Folder.
How would I turn an InputStream into a File object that I can use? Or, are there any better ways to do what I'm trying to accomplish, such as a way to retrieve the Zip Folder files as Files or something?
Any help is appreciated.

Re: InputStream to File
Write the file locally by reading the InputStream, and writing the data that you read. Pass this file to the library, then delete said file when finished. Not extremely efficient, but it sounds like the 3rd party lib you are using limits you in this case.

That's what I did. Seems to work. Thanks.
