(Excel) Controlling Paths of Files Added to ZipWhen appending files to a .zip, it can be difficult to get the paths exactly as you want them. This example describes a way that you can control the path information when adding a single file at a time to a .zip.
' This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked. ' See Global Unlock Sample for sample code. Dim zip As Chilkat.Zip Set zip = Chilkat.NewZip ' Intialize the zip object by calling NewZip. success = zip.NewZip("myZip.zip") ' Add a reference to a file on disk to the zip object. ' (When appending files to a zip, the files are not actually ' read into memory. References to the file(s) are added. ' When WriteZip is called, the referenced files are streamed in ' and compressed to the .zip.) saveExtraPath = False success = zip.AppendOneFileOrDir("/temp/a/hamlet.xml",saveExtraPath) ' For brevity, this example will not check the return status... ' The saveExtraPath argument, if set, will cause the path information ' passed in the 1st argument to be saved in the .zip. ' To add "a/hamlet.xml", do this: zip.AppendFromDir = "/temp" ' The saveExtraPath argument, if set, will cause the path information ' passed in the 1st argument to be saved in the .zip. But the path in AppendFromDir is ' not added to that path saved in the .zip. If there is a path in AppendFromDir then the ' path in the 1st argument must be relative, not preceded by a drive or \. saveExtraPath = True success = zip.AppendOneFileOrDir("a/hamlet.xml",saveExtraPath) ' To add "temp/a/hamlet.xml", do this: zip.AppendFromDir = "/" saveExtraPath = True success = zip.AppendOneFileOrDir("temp/a/hamlet.xml",saveExtraPath) ' The zip written here will contain hamlet.xml three times, ' each with a different relative path. success = zip.WriteZipAndClose() |
