(VB.NET) How to Add a Directory Path to Files when Zipping
Demonstrates how to add a directory path to files when zipping.
For example, if files are located in directory_name:
-directory_name
--123.txt
--321.txt
The need to to create a .zip with this directory structure:
-directory_name
--123.txt
--321.txt
' This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
' See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.
Dim zip As New Chilkat.Zip
' Intialize the zip object by calling NewZip.
Dim success As Boolean = zip.NewZip("qa_output/test.zip")
' Set a path prefix:
zip.PathPrefix = "directory_name/"
' Add references to files:
Dim recurse As Boolean = True
success = zip.AppendFiles("c:/zipTest/directory_name/*",recurse)
If (success <> True) Then
Debug.WriteLine(zip.LastErrorText)
Exit Sub
End If
success = zip.WriteZipAndClose()
If (success <> True) Then
Debug.WriteLine(zip.LastErrorText)
Exit Sub
End If
Debug.WriteLine("success.")
