Local $bSuccess

Local $sZipPath = "c:/temp/test.zip"

; Initialize the zip object, which also sets the FileName property to the path of the zip to be created.
$oZip.NewZip($sZipPath)

; Append a new and empty file to the zip object.
; This does not write the zip file.  It simply adds an entry
; that will get processed when the zip is written.
Local $oEntry1 = $oZip.AppendNew("empty.txt")

; Append another entry..
Local $oEntry2 = $oZip.AppendNew("abc/helloWorld.txt")

; Add some data to this entry..
$oEntry2.AppendString("Hello World","utf-8")

; Write the zip, which contains 2 files:  empty.txt and helloWorld.txt
$oZip.FileName = $sZipPath
$bSuccess = $oZip.WriteZipAndClose()
If ($bSuccess = False) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oZip.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
