You can see from the source that the C# version is a lot easier to write/code than the Java version as it uses properties instead of getter and setter methods (yes I know the CLR uses getters and setters in the background!! but that's hidden from me in c# yeah!!)Īlso Java does not support unsigned data types, which to be honest was a bit of a pain.

Those files can have different compression methods and passwords to other files. Note the Add File (file) method can be called multiple times to add as many file to the ZIP File as you like. the file will be compressed using the deflate algorithm (note this is the only algorithm the library supports) and the file will also be encrypted with the supplied password.įileEntry file = new FileEntry( 'D:\text.txt', 'HARPER',Method.Deflated) the file will be compressed using the deflate algorithm (note this is the only algorithm the library supports)įileEntry file = new FileEntry( 'D:\text.txt',Method.Deflated) Ĭreating a ZIP file with one file in it, using deflate compression and encrypted with a password Add the FileEntry object to the ZIPFile objectĬreating a ZIP file with one file in it, using Deflate compression without a password. the file will NOT be compressed or have a passwordįileEntry file = new FileEntry( ' D:\text.txt' ,Method.Stored) Creates a FileEntry object that represents the file D:\text.txt ZIPFile zip = new ZIPFile( 'D:\myfirstZip.zip') Creates a ZipFile object that will ultimately be saved at D:\myfirstZip.zip This is controlled by the constructor called to create the File Entry.Ĭreating a ZIP file with one file in it, using Stored (i.e.

The File Entry can be stored as is, compressed, as is encrypted, compressed encrypted. text files, jpegs anything (I think.).įile Entry: This object represents a file stored inside a ZIP File.

ZIP File: This object represents a ZIP file, which can contain one or more other files (i.e.

There are only really two main classes on interest: This article provides the source code for creating zip files in C# and Java.
