ZIP.EntryAddFromMemory method

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

Remarks

 

Adds a new entry from a memory buffer to the ZIP file session previously opened through the ZIP.Open method or created through the ZIP.Create method.

 

This method only updates the ZIP session: to update or rewrite the ZIP file the ZIP.Save method would need to be called.

 

A successful call to this method will fire the ZipOperationStart event followed by a number of ZipOperationPerc events and finally by the ZipOperationDone event.

 

For further details about methods for ZIP management refer to the ZIP object.

For details about using ZIP management refer to the How to manage ZIP files tutorial.
