In case some of you haven't heard about this object, it is supposed to be a replacement for the Zip Object. I have re-written this object twice, trying to make it as easy to use as possible. It is pretty stable now, so I would like some public testing and feedback.


Some Features:

• Creating Archives
• Opening Archives
• Files/Folders Queue
• Adding/Removing Files To/From Existing Archives Without Extracting
• Custom Compression
• Encryption
• Multi-Threaded

Please feel free to test and let me know of any bugs. The download comes with a simple example of adding multiple files to a new archive. I will add more and write some documentation as soon as I get some time. Have fun.

Thanks this sounds like a great object, i will test this when i have time.

Perfect job !

Little suggestions :

• Find a solution to support wildcard (adding/extracting/replacing)
• Some new expressions like "Get file zip compressed, not compressed, CRC, modification date, type, get files numbers, get folder number etc ...)
• Ability to open files without extracting them, just to view the content of the archive.
• Rename "Encryption" by "Password" term, because it's a little confusing ...
• Checking Examples, because some examples are outdated
• Add "Zip" on current Icon

1. Done
2. Done
3. Something better is already added in the next build.
4. It does use encryption for the passwords, so I named it both.
5. New examples and docs almost finished.
6. Done (Thanks LB.)

Fantastiche !

Since no bugs have been reported, I will assume it's stable?

Here is a pretty nice update. I added the following features:

• Updated Icon (Thanks LB)
• New Wildcard Feature When Adding To Queue
• New Expressions For Retrieving The Number Of Files/Folders From The Queue
• New Expression For Retrieving The Size Of An Archive
• New Conditions For Files Added, Removed, Extracted etc.
• Full Documentation & An Example (More To Come)
• Added The Ability To Extract and Access Files Without Having To Extract The Archive

Cool thanks for the update

Nico found a bug that is now fixed. I will upload a new version shortly.

New Version.

Here are a few of the changes:

• Fixed Extract Queued Files Bug
• New Actions, Conditions, and Expressions For Deleting Files From Disk
• New Expression For Retrieving The FileNames From An Archive
• New Quick Extract File Action
• Updated Documentation

Download:
Archive Object 1.6

Bug ?:
> "Last Extracted" expression returns nothing when I use "Quick Extracting file" action
> Still doesn't support accent extracted files
> There is a little trouble with "Decrypt" action, when I extract entire file with a password, it's OK, after I quick extract another file with different password. My application crash!


Little suggestions:
> Able to extract/add file as another name (e.g.: if empty "" = as originale filename else another name), handy if you use hashing

> Exporting TXT file list (entire or specific folder; with or without extensions; with or without folders)
