No.
(Uses ZLIB static lib for windows and some API functions.)

**OFF TOPIC (apologies!)

I swear Gnozal is a machine, he can't be human!

How does one man hold down a job (family perhaps as well?) and produce, as a hobby, so much code?

Yea, he's really a multi-core multi-processor server sat in Fred's office, covered in coffee with a plant pot to one side and a dart board attached to the other for when Fred get's tired of coding!

Either that or the drugs really do work!

Thanks man.

(Sorry for the off-topic post here.)

Could you do a PB4.20B1 version of this lib, on PB4.20B1 there is a POLINK error as the Mid command has been changed?

Thanks.

Sure : http://freenet-homepage.de/gnozal/PureZIP___.zip
Just recompiled with PB4.20 beta 1, not tested.

That POLINK _Mid_ problem showed up in a few other libs as well. otherwise, this pb edition seems quite stable for me.

Yes, some other user librairies are broken.
I will release a specific PB4.20 version of my libs if needed for PB4.20 final, or for any PB4.20 beta on request.

Is it possible to add a file to an archive at a specified location?

Let's say I have a zip archive that looks like this:

Code: Select all

ROOT
  |-Folder 1
  |----File 1
  |----File 2
  |-Folder 2
  |----File 3
  |----File 4
  |-File 1
  |-File 2

Is it possible to manually add a file to the Folder 1 or Folder 2 locations inside the archive without extraction all the files?

Kind of, if your file is in folder 'Folder 1' on the disk.
Example 1 :

Code: Select all

If PureZIP_Archive_Create("c:\Test.zip", #APPEND_STATUS_CREATE) 
  
  PureZIP_Archive_Compress("c:\PureBasic410\Compilers\PBCompiler.exe", #True) 
  
  PureZIP_Archive_Close() 
EndIf
;
; we have a zip file with this structure :
; PureBasic410
;    |
;    ---Compilers
;           |
;           --PBCompiler.exe
;
; Now we want to add APIFunctionListing.txt into compilers
;
If PureZIP_Archive_Create("c:\Test.zip", #APPEND_STATUS_ADDINZIP) 
  
  PureZIP_Archive_Compress("c:\PureBasic410\Compilers\APIFunctionListing.txt", #True) 
  
  PureZIP_Archive_Close() 
EndIf
; we have a zip file with this structure :
; PureBasic410
;    |
;    ---Compilers
;           |
;           --PBCompiler.exe
;           --APIFunctionListing.txt

or you could use a base directory like http://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtop ... &start=340

Thanks gnozal.
I'll have a closer look at that tonight :

Hi gnozal,

Is it possible to compile your library against PB4.20b1, because it exhibits the same problem with POLINK like PurePOP3/SMTP did.

Thank you very much in advance.
