I have tried to load a zip into flash with this library on a server environment and flash won’t even give me a progress event..

But locally it works just fine.. is this a limitation of flash??

When I use the compression code for the second time then there is a error of duplicate entry (it works fine for the first time). I explicitly allocate and deallocate memory to the variable in the code . Well compression for the first time works really fine and smoothly.

i have just come across this site and cannot figure out how you’d zip a folder and then access that zip, could you please post a sample?

Thanks

I cerated a function using the code provided. My zip file is in a URL (e.g. myFolder\…\myZip.zip). How can pass the URL to the function?
Anyone can help? Thanks.

——————–

import flash.utils.IDataInput;
import nochump.util.zip.*;

// read from a zip
public function unZip() {
var loadedData:IDataInput;

// load a zip via URLStream or URLLoader using binary data format…
// create zip file
\var zipFile:ZipFile = new ZipFile(loadedData);
for(var i:int = 0; i < zipFile.entries.length; i++) {
var entry:ZipEntry = zipFile.entries[i];
trace(entry.name);
// extract the entry’s data from the zip
var data:ByteArray = zipFile.getInput(entry);
trace(data.toString());
}
}

Hi,
It’s possible compress multiple files into one archive? Can I have an example of this application?

Ostap : Hi, great job! FZip library doesn’t uncompress zip files with data description blocks but YOUR LIBRARY DO IT WELL. Thanks! It was helpful for me.

...except password protected archives, right? Still not supported... ffs

sorry, I fixed my problem, it was your code that was throwing the error, but it was because my xml stuff was of length 0 or something….yeah.
