Demonstrates how to unzip all files into a single directory, ignoring the internal directory structure of the files in the .zip. AutoIt

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

Local $sOutDir = "c:/temp/testUnzipDir"

; Make sure our output directory exists.

; In this example, the xml_files.zip contains some files in the subdirectories "dir1" and also "dir2/dir3".

; a1.xml
; b1.xml
; c1.xml
; dir1/a2.xml
; dir1/c2.xml
; dir2/dir3/c3.xml

; After unzipping via UnzipInto, we have this:

; c:\temp\testUnzipDir\a1.xml
