(AutoIt) GZip Create / Extract .gz FileDemonstrates how to compress a file to create a .gz (GZip) file. Note: The .gz file format is a compressed file format. It contains a single file. The .gz file format is not an archive format (i.e. it does not contain a collection of files/directories such as with the .zip, .rar, or .tar file formats). GZip is often combined with TAR to create a .tgz (or .tar.gz). Note: It is possible for a .gz to contain more than one file, but this is very uncommon.
; This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked. ; See Global Unlock Sample for sample code. $oGzip = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Gzip") ; File-to-file GZip: ; Compress "hamlet.xml" to create "hamlet.xml.gz" Local $bSuccess = $oGzip.CompressFile("hamlet.xml","hamlet.xml.gz") If ($bSuccess <> True) Then ConsoleWrite($oGzip.LastErrorText & @CRLF) Exit EndIf ; File-to-file ungzip ; Decompress "hamlet.xml.gz" to create "hamletOut.xml" $bSuccess = $oGzip.UncompressFile("hamlet.xml.gz","hamletOut.xml") If ($bSuccess <> True) Then ConsoleWrite($oGzip.LastErrorText & @CRLF) Exit EndIf ; File-to-string ungzip ; Decompress the contents of a .gz directly to a string variable: ; The 2nd argument indicates the charset of the character ; data after it is decompressed. Local $sXmlStr $sXmlStr = $oGzip.UncompressFileToString("hamlet.xml.gz","utf-8") If ($bSuccess <> True) Then ConsoleWrite($oGzip.LastErrorText & @CRLF) Exit EndIf ConsoleWrite($sXmlStr & @CRLF) ; The Chilkat GZip API provides much more flexibility than shown ; here.
