(C#) Create .taz, .tar.Z TAR ArchiveDemonstrates how to create a compressed TAR archive containing an entire directory tree. This example creates a compressed archive using Unix "Z" compression. The typical file extensions used are .tar.Z and .taz.
// This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked. // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code. Chilkat.Tar tar = new Chilkat.Tar(); // The TAR component will produce a GNU tar 1.13.x format // archive by default. // It is also possible to create PAX -- POSIX 1003.1-2001 format // or USTAR -- POSIX 1003.1-1988 format. // Set the WriteFormat property to "gnu", "pax", or "ustar" to // choose the output TAR format: tar.WriteFormat = "gnu"; // Add a directory tree to be included in the output TAR archive: bool success = tar.AddDirRoot("/Users/chilkat/temp/abc123"); if (success != true) { Debug.WriteLine(tar.LastErrorText); return; } // First write a .tar, then compress to a .Z using UnixCompress. success = tar.WriteTar("/Users/chilkat/testData/tar/abc123.tar"); if (success != true) { Debug.WriteLine(tar.LastErrorText); return; } Chilkat.UnixCompress uc = new Chilkat.UnixCompress(); success = uc.CompressFile("/Users/chilkat/testData/tar/abc123.tar","/Users/chilkat/testData/tar/abc123.tar.Z"); if (success != true) { Debug.WriteLine(uc.LastErrorText); } else { Debug.WriteLine("Success."); } |
