extract zip files

[clyde]

hi there. well got this little question if its possible to do. i have done a browse file and copy the file to a different folder/location. however, i would like to ask if its possible to extract a zip file which is copied (e.g. C:/zipFiles) and extracted to a different folder (e.g. c:/extractedZipz) using SWFKit Pro.

thanks. :-X

hi. thanks for the reply. i tried to look at it and sure looks fine to me. i hope this was tested in SWFKit pro. i have to check on how to use it cuz the sample they gave was made thru VB and i dont have it installed anyway, if anyone had used this before... i hope i can get tips how to use it.

thanks guys! :-\

That one needs the vb runtime library to work. There is another one http://www.codeproject.com/atl/sawzip.asp

The attached file is a recompiled version, it doesn't need any external dlls to run.

var zip = new ActiveXObject("SAWZip.Archive");
zip.open("c:\\test.zip");

for (i = 0; i < zip.files.count;  i++)
{
var file = zip.files[i];
trace(file.name);

file.fullpath = true;
file.extract("c:\\test");
}

You must register the attached dll before you can use it.

Thanks TOPCMM. But will that mean that if another user will use it, he will have to register the dll too? i guess the answer is yes :-[ will try it anyway. Thanks!
