Create Password Protected Zip containing a Single File.

See more Zip Examples

Create a password-protected .zip containing a single file. (This uses the older Zip 2.0 encryption scheme, which is weaker and not as secure as AES encryption, which Chilkat Zip also supports.) 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();

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

$zip->SetPassword("secret");
$zip->put_PasswordProtect(1);

$saveExtraPath = 0;
$success = $zip->AddFile("/temp/hamlet.xml",$saveExtraPath);

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

print "Zip Created!" . "\r\n";
