Create Password Protected Zip containing a Single File.

See more Zip Examples

Create a password-protected .zip containing a single file. (This uses the older Zip 2.0 encryption scheme, which is weaker and not as secure as AES encryption, which Chilkat Zip also supports.) C++

#include <CkZip.h>

void ChilkatSample(void)
    {
    bool success = false;

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

    CkZip zip;

    success = zip.NewZip("test.zip");
    if (success == false) {
        std::cout << zip.lastErrorText() << "\r\n";
        return;
    }

    zip.SetPassword("secret");
    zip.put_PasswordProtect(true);

    bool saveExtraPath;
    saveExtraPath = false;
    success = zip.AddFile("/temp/hamlet.xml",saveExtraPath);

    success = zip.WriteZipAndClose();
    if (success == false) {
        std::cout << zip.lastErrorText() << "\r\n";
        return;
    }

    std::cout << "Zip Created!" << "\r\n";
    }
