Abbrevia Freshenfiles problem
« on: March 14, 2014, 12:05:10 pm »
I'm having trouble getting Abbrevia's FreshenFiles function to work.

I'm using this code and via debugging and the ShowMessage I see that FreshenFiles is being called (see screenshot) but still the archive is never refreshed or updated.
Does anyone have any tips or suggestions how i can get thsi to work properly?

Code: [Select]
iArchiveDate := FileAge(strZipFile);

Zip := TAbZipper.Create(nil);
Zip.FileName := strZipFile;

if bDifferential
then begin 
     for i := 0 to lstFilteredFiles.Count - 1 do
     begin
       if FileAge(lstFilteredFiles[i]) > iArchiveDate
       then begin
            showmessage('Freshening archive ' + strZipFile + ' for file ' + lstFilteredFiles[i]);
            Zip.FreshenFiles(lstFilteredFiles[i]);
       end;
     end;

     Zip.Save;
     Zip.Free;
end;

Problem solved.
It turned out I hadn't set Zip.BaseDirectory which causes a mismatch in every filename.
I added

Code: [Select]
Zip.BaseDirectory := ExtractFileDrive(lstFilteredFiles[i]) + '\';

to set the drive (for instance E:\) as BaseDirectory and now FreshenFiles works like it should.
