That's an excellent suggestion, however, given Sun and MS's rocky
past, I'd suggest exposing a J# class based on your own published
interface (written in C# if possible) that handles ALL your ZIP
interaction. I've a strong feeling J# is going to go the way of the
dodo after a time, due to legalities and/or lack of interest/support.
Don't get me wrong, I think it's nice they added it to .NET, but I
don't think it's going to be open ended. Anyway, as I was saying, I'd
suggest doing all the ZIP interaction in a J# class, so that when J#
is officially retired, you only have to replace that class with a C#
(or other language class) that wraps someone else's ZIP api, which I'm
sure is forthcoming.

Here's another way to do it using J#'s zip libraries. I haven't used
it yet, but it looks promising. I believe you download J# runtime
(links provided in the article), import vjslib.dll to your project,
then you can use classes such as java.util.zip.ZipFile
