Comment (by leeroy):

 I'm looking at the difference between your branch and what I submitted.
 Entry refers to the archive entry. entry.getName() returns the full
 canonical path name. It's filename that contains the parsed name.

 I think you need to scrap the entire branch and look at it again. The
 original was designed to return null safely so that it could be detected
 without causing the application to fail. The branch you made for this
 isn't safe for use.
