Hi,

I have recently upgraded from version 3.5 to 6.1.  I followed the migration procedured outlined in the documentation.  Performing the zip method using version 3.5 and 6.1 does not yield the same files in the zip files.

• .Recurse = True  ----------------------> .ProcessSubfolders = True
• .UsePaths = True ----------------------> .PreservePaths=True
• .Add(xecAll) -----------------------------> .Zip 

Attempting to zip the contents of c:\temp\*996663*

3.5 - creates a zip file containing

• Any files that match the pattern *996663* in c:\temp are zipped
• Any folders/subfolders that match the pattern *996663* and all their contents are zipped

6.1 - creates a zip file containing

• Any files in c:\temp that match the pattern *996663*

For 6.1 I subsequently modified the wildcard from c:\temp\*996663* to c:\temp\*996663*\*  which yielded better results

6.1 - creates a zip file containing

• Any folders/subfolders from c:\temp that match the pattern *996663* and all their contents are zipped
• It does not zip any files from c:\temp that match the pattern *996663*

Is there a way to check both files/folders in one step.  I am trying to minimise the amount of code change between both versions which will be helpful when it comes to the regressional testing.

 Your help will be much appreciated,

We were not able to reproduce your problem. We tested with a small sample that zips the following file/folder tree:

D:\Temp\996663.txt
D:\Temp\A996663A.txt
D:\Temp\File1.txt
D:\Temp\File2.txt
D:\Temp\996663\996663
D:\Temp\996663\BB996663A (1).txt
D:\Temp\996663\BB996663A.txt
D:\Temp\A996663A\_996663.txt
D:\Temp\A996663A\__996663.txt
D:\Temp\FolderA\File1.txt
D:\Temp\FolderA\File2.txt
D:\Temp\FolderA\_996663.txt
D:\Temp\FolderA\__996663.txt

The default values for the properties were used, except for these :

// (C# code)
this.Zip.ProcessSubfolders = true;
this.Zip.PreservePaths = true;
this.Zip.ZipFilename = "testArchive.zip";
this.Zip.FilesToProcess = @"D:\Temp\*996663*";
this.Zip.Zip();

After the operation, the zip archive contained the following files:

Temp\996663.txt
Temp\A996663A.txt
Temp\996663\996663
Temp\996663\BB996663A (1).txt
Temp\996663\BB996663A.txt
Temp\A996663A\_996663.txt
Temp\A996663A\__996663.txt
Temp\FolderA\_996663.txt
Temp\FolderA\__996663.txt
