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

let gzip = chilkat::Gzip::new();

// Ungzip and untar.
let b_no_absolute = true;
let untar_to_directory = "/temp/test".to_string();
// bNoAbsolute tells the component to convert all absolute paths
// found in the .tar to relative paths.   For example, if the .tar
// contains a file with an absolute path such as
// "/usr/bin/something.exe" it will
// be extracted to "/temp/test/usr/bin/something.exe";
