Hi,

I am getting an error 323 (The filemask or file entry did not match any existing file) in the Xceed Zip Compression Library when I try to add a folder via AddFilesToProcess().  The obvious problem would be that I am forgetting the trailing backslash, but I am not.  I have verified this in the debugger.  Individual files are added without any problem, but it chokes on folders.

Can anyone offer any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong?  My app is running on a Windows Vista machine, and is written in VC++ 6.0.  Here is the relevant code:

   IXceedZipPtr piXceedZip(CLSID_XceedZip);
   piXceedZip->License(myLicense);
   CXceedZipEventSink sink;
   sink.DispEventAdvise(piXceedZip);
   sink.SetXceedZip(piXceedZip);

   piXceedZip->ZipFilename = _bstr_t(LPCTSTR(m_strFilePNE));
   piXceedZip->PreservePaths = false;
   piXceedZip->ProcessSubfolders = true;
   POSITION pos = m_listFileNames.GetHeadPosition();
   while ( pos != NULL )
   {
    CString fileNamePNE = m_listFileNames.GetNext(pos);
    piXceedZip->AddFilesToProcess(_bstr_t(LPCTSTR(fileNamePNE)));
   }

   pos = m_listFolderNames.GetHeadPosition();
   while ( pos != NULL )
   {
    CString folderNamePath = m_listFolderNames.GetNext(pos);
    folderNamePath += "\\";
    piXceedZip->AddFilesToProcess(_bstr_t(LPCTSTR(folderNamePath)));
   }

   // Create the new ZIP file
   long xErr = piXceedZip->Zip();

Thanks!

You need to add the * wildcard to the file mask in order to zip all files in your folder.

e.g.:

foderNamePath += "\\*";

Thanks.  I already did that, and it works fine.  I was assuming that Folder\ and Folder\* would have a different behavior since there was a distinction between the two in the documentation.
