Example code to unzip Files Matching a Pattern (such as *.xml)

' This example works with the .zip located at http://www.example-code.com/data/test.zip

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

' First, let's download the .zip
Dim http As Chilkat.Http
Set http = Chilkat.NewHttp

success = http.Download("http://www.example-code.com/data/test.zip","qa_test/test.zip")

    Debug.Print zip.LastErrorText

' Show what's in the .zip by getting the directory as XML.

zipContentsXml = zip.GetDirectoryAsXML()
If (zip.LastMethodSuccess <> True) Then
    Debug.Print zip.LastErrorText
    Exit Sub
End If

Debug.Print zipContentsXml

' In this case, the contents of our .zip look like this:
' <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
' <zip_contents>
'     <dir name="test">
'         <dir name="abc">
'             <dir name="123">
'                 <file>ecc_public.pem</file>
'                 <file>starfish.jpg</file>
'             </dir>
'             <file>comodo-certificates.pem</file>

' </zip_contents>

' ------------------------------------------------------------------------
' If we wish to unzip only .xml files, use "*.xml" for the pattern\
' Unzip to the "qa_output" directory relative to our current working directory.
' (You may unzip to an absolute path by passing an absolute path, such as "/someDir" or
' "C:/someDir", etc.)
' This will unzip only the .xml files.  The relative directory structure within
' the .zip will be created in the local filesystem under the unzip directory
' path passed in the first argument, which in this case is "qa_output".

    Exit Sub
End If

' ------------------------------------------------------------------------
' If no asterisk character is used, then the match must be exact.

' as it is in the .zip.  We cannot just pass "hamlet.xml".
