success = [zip OpenZip: @"myProtected.zip"];
if (success != YES) {
    NSLog(@"%@",zip.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Set the password to be verified:
zip.DecryptPassword = @"secret";

BOOL passwordOk;
passwordOk = [zip VerifyPassword];
if (passwordOk == YES) {
    NSLog(@"%@",@"Password is correct.");
}
else {
    NSLog(@"%@",@"Password is incorrect.");
