Dim success As Boolean = zip.OpenZip("test.zip")

Dim entry As Chilkat.ZipEntry = zip.GetEntryByName("hamlet.xml")
' Assume entry is non-null.  If GetEntryByName failed
' to find the entry, it returns a null reference.
entry.FileName = "hamlet2.xml"


entry = zip.GetEntryByName("helloWorld.pl")
entry.FileName = "hw.pl"



' Now unzip to the "test" subdirectory, under our current
' working directory:
Dim numFilesUnzipped As Integer = zip.Unzip("test")
If (numFilesUnzipped < 0) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(zip.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If


' The filenames within the .zip are unchanged, but it unzipped
' test/hw.pl and test/hamlet2.xm
