SevenZip

SevenZip is part of the CategoryAplTree project.

Warning

Note that 7zip issues an error when you pass something like this with the flag to preserve the directory structure:

C:\My\folder1\file.txt
C:\My\folder2\file.txt

This is a clearly a bug. However, you can easily get around this by executing the command within C:\My and this list of files:

folder1\file.txt
folder2\file.txt

In other words: relative paths are fine, absolute ones are not.

Since version 1.1.0 the SevenZip class issues in hint if this error occurs and absolute path names are used.

Overview

The class "SevenZip" relies on an installed version of the Open Source zipper 7zip.

The class makes it very easy to zip as well as unzip stuff.

"SevenZip" suppports the following formats:

• 7z
• split
• zip
• gzip
• bzip2
• tar

You can either specify an appropriate extension or set the "type" property in order to enforce a certain format.

      myZipper←⎕new #.SevenZip (,⊂'MyZipFile')
      ⎕←myZipper
[SevenZip@MyZipFile]
      myZipper.Add 'foo.txt'
      ⎕←myZipper.List 0
foo.txt
myZipper.Unzip 'c:\output\'
