Is there an overview or tutorial on how to use the revZip functions? Do I have to use each individual function to manually describe the process of creating and using a zip archive?
Like, to create the archive, do I have to write my own code to open it, repeat for each file and/or each folder, find and specify the name and contents and format of each file, then close it, then remember to delete it later...or is there a command somewhere that just takes a folder and returns a zipped version of that folder? The same question for extracting an archive. Do I have to open it, enumerate the files, repeat for each file and/or folder, figure out that file's name, contents, and format, copy the file to an appropriate new file, then close it, then remember to delete it later...or is there a command that just takes a *.zip and returns an extracted folder? I already spent a couple hours trying various combinations of quotes around the parameters to add something to an archive before I figured out put the data into the URL as a binfile manually. Then this morning I ran across a different revZip function to add a file directly, instead of raw data, which I guess is what I was doing. So it would be nice to find out that there's already a function that does all of the obvious zip archive stuff automatically and correctly. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
