EasyZip component (request)

[Rave]

I have hard time using zlib, so I'd like to request easy to use component for handling zip (and maybe lzma) archives. I'd like to see following functions:

openArchive(filename:PChar,compressionLevel:byte;)

Opens archive with path in filename and set it's compression level to compressionLevel. Invoked by constructor.


addFile(path,pathinZip:PChar; createDirs:Boolean)

adds file in path as pathinzip, if some of directories in pathinZip are missing and createDirs=true they're created inside archive. Example:

Code: [Select]

EasyZip1.addFile('c:\letter to mom.doc','letters/letter to mom.doc');

addDirectory(path:PChar;);

adds directory in path to archive


extract(path:PChar;createDirs:Boolean)

extracts archive to specifed location. If createDirs=true and some of directories are missing in patch, they're created along the way.

closearchive();

Closes archive and writes it to disk. Invoked by destructor.

Sometimes searching the forum can be enlightening 

Does this:

help?

(You can forget about the Delphi part, but it shows there already is support for zip/unzip)

Yeah, I thought about that, but function names are so confusing. I need only basic functionality as described in OP as I want just to make xml-based ODF-like document format and instead of keeping whole directory, keep just one file..
