try {
FileInputStream fin = new FileInputStream("unzipfile.txt");
BufferedInputStream zipin = new BufferedInputStream(fin);
FileOutputStream fout = new FileOutputStream("zipfile.zip");
BufferedOutputStream bout = new BufferedOutputStream(fout);
ZipOutputStream zipout = new ZipOutputStream(bout);
byte[] data = new byte[1000];
int count;
zipout.putNextEntry(new ZipEntry("zipfile.zip"));
while ((count = zipin.read(data, 0, 1000)) != -1) {
zipout.write(data, 0, count);
}
zipin.close();
zipout.close();
System.out.println("File SuccessFully converted In Zip Format");
