I found the zip.h file, but I was looking for a complete example program that does zip and/or unzip. The threads in this forum are rather old, and have some broken links.

Anyone have some zip/unzip code they are willing to share?

Hi Howard,

In plugin/zip package are some handy classes for zip format. It can be used like this:
#include <plugin/zip/zip.h>
using namespace Upp;

CONSOLE_APP_MAIN{
	// Compression
	FileZip zip("/tmp/test.zip");
	const char* somedata="some data";
	String otherdata="other data";
	zip.WriteFolder("test", GetSysTime());
	zip.WriteFile(somedata, strlen(somedata), "somedata.txt");
	zip.WriteFile(otherdata, "test/otherdata.txt");
	if(zip.Finish())
		Cout() << "Zip created succesfully\n";
	
	// Decompression
	FileUnZip unzip("/tmp/test.zip");
	while (!(unzip.IsEof() || unzip.IsError())) {
		Cout() << "Path:" << unzip.GetPath() << "\n";
		Cout() << "  Time:" << unzip.GetTime() << "\n";
		if(!unzip.IsFolder()){
			Cout() << "  Size:" << unzip.GetLength() << "\n";
			Cout() << "  Content:" << unzip.ReadFile() << "\n";
		} else
			unzip.SkipFile();
	}
}


Aside from FileZip and FileUnZip there are also in-memory variants StringZip, StringUnZip and MemUnZip that don't read/write files from disk. Their usage is very similar.

Best regards,
Honza

BTW, is there a possibility to make streaming unzip with FileZip or any other class? If original file is 1GB large, it is very memory consumable to unzip the whole file into memory.

bool UnZip::ReadFile(Stream& out, Gate2<int, int> progress = false);

It is true that we now have more "modern" interface style for this (see Zlib class), but Stream& out should work as well...
