Unzip all Files to a Single Directory (Ignoring Subdirectories in Zip)

See more Zip Examples

Demonstrates how to unzip all files into a single directory, ignoring the internal directory structure of the files in the .zip. Tcl

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

set outDir "c:/temp/testUnzipDir"

# Make sure our output directory exists.
set fac [new_CkFileAccess]

# In this example, the xml_files.zip contains some files in the subdirectories "dir1" and also "dir2/dir3".

# a1.xml
# b1.xml
# c1.xml
# dir1/a2.xml
# dir1/c2.xml

# After unzipping via UnzipInto, we have this:
