<?php

include("chilkat.php");

$success = false;

$zip = new CkZip();

$success = $zip->NewZip('qa_output/x.zip');

// Let's add files from the directory tree rooted at C:\AAWorkarea\ChilkatSampleProjects

// However.. we want to exclude all files ending in ".cache" or ".pdb" regardless of the sub-directory.
// Also exclude all files under any "obj" directory,
// and we also want to exclude any .exe found under a "win10-x64" directory.

$saExcludes = new CkStringArray();
$saExcludes->Append('*.cache');
$saExcludes->Append('*.pdb');
$saExcludes->Append('*/obj/*');
$saExcludes->Append('*/win10-x64/*.exe');
$zip->SetExclusions($saExcludes);

// Append promises of paths and files to be zipped.
$recurse = true;
$success = $zip->AppendFiles('c:/AAWorkArea/ChilkatSampleProjects/*',$recurse);
if ($success == false) {
    print $zip->lastErrorText() . "\n";
    exit;

// Create the zip from the file and directory promises added previously.
$success = $zip->WriteZipAndClose();
if ($success == false) {
    print $zip->lastErrorText() . "\n";
