    let zip = CkoZip()

    var success: Bool = zip.OpenZip("qa_data/zips/sample.zip")

    // If, for example, the zip contained these files:

    // aaa/pigs.json

    // bbb/sub2/penguins.gif
    // bbb/sub2/starfish.jpg
    // hamlet.xml
    // hello.pdf

    // then after unzipping, the following files will be created:

    // c:/temp/testDir/aaa/pigs.json
    // c:/temp/testDir/bbb/base64Cert.txt
    // c:/temp/testDir/bbb/sub1/brasil_cert.pem
