Demonstrates how to iterate over the files and directories in a zip archive using EntryAt/GetNext. CkPython

import sys
import chilkat

success = False

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

zip = chilkat.CkZip()

success = zip.OpenZip("qa_data/zips/xml_files.zip")
if (success == False):
    print(zip.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()

entry = chilkat.CkZipEntry()
hasMoreEntries = zip.EntryAt(0,entry)
while (hasMoreEntries == True) :
    if (entry.get_IsDirectory() == False):
        print(entry.fileName())
    else:
        print("(directory) " + entry.fileName())

    hasMoreEntries = entry.GetNext()

# Sample output showing both file and directory entries:

# a1.xml
# b1.xml
# c1.xml
# (directory) dir1/
# dir1/a2.xml
# dir1/c2.xml
# (directory) dir2/
# (directory) dir2/dir3/
# dir2/dir3/c3.xml
