#include <C_CkGzip.h>

void ChilkatSample(void)
    {
    BOOL success;
    HCkGzip gzip;

    success = FALSE;

    // This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    gzip = CkGzip_Create();

    success = CkGzip_UncompressFile(gzip,"qa_data/gzip/something.csv.gz","qa_output/something.csv");
    if (success != TRUE) {
        printf("%s\n",CkGzip_lastErrorText(gzip));
        CkGzip_Dispose(gzip);
