Unzip a .zip Archive

See more Zip Examples

Demonstrates how to open a .zip archive and unzip. The Unzip method extracts the files and directories from a .zip archive and recreates the directory tree rooted at the directory path passed to Unzip. Rust

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

let zip = chilkat::Zip::new();

if zip.open_zip("my_files.zip").is_err() {
    println!("{}", zip.last_error_text());
    return;
}

// Returns the number of files and directories unzipped.
// Unzips to /my_files, re-creating the directory tree
// from the .zip.
let unzip_count = zip.unzip("/my_files");
if unzip_count < 0 {
    println!("{}", zip.last_error_text());
} else {
    println!("Success!");
}
