Unzip Encrypted Text into a String Variable

See more Zip Examples

Demonstrates how to open an encrypted .zip archive and unzip a text file directly into a string variable. Perl

use chilkat();

$success = 0;

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

$zip = chilkat::CkZip->new();

# Set the password required for decrypting.
$zip->put_DecryptPassword("myPassword");

$success = $zip->OpenZip("encrypted.zip");
if ($success == 0) {
    print $zip->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

# Locate the file within the Zip to be unzipped into a string variable:
$entry = chilkat::CkZipEntry->new();
$success = $zip->EntryMatching("*.csv",$entry);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $zip->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

# lineEndingBehavior:
# 0 = leave unchanged.
# 1 = convert all to bare LF's
# 2 = convert all to CRLF's
$lineEndingBehavior = 0;
$srcCharset = "utf-8";

$strCsv = $entry->unzipToString($lineEndingBehavior,$srcCharset);
print $strCsv . "\r\n";
