<?php

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

// Untar a .tar archive.
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Tar')
$tar = new COM("Chilkat.Tar");

// Untar into c:/temp/untarDir.  The directory tree(s) contained
// within the TAR archive will be re-created rooted at this
// directory.
$tar->UntarFromDir = '/Users/chilkat/temp/untarDir';

// If any filepaths within the Tar archive are absolute,
// automatically make them relative by removing the first
// forward or backward slash.  This protects from untarring
// files to unexpected locations.
$tar->NoAbsolutePaths = 1;
