Initializes a new instance of the GZippedFile class for accessing the first file in the GZip archive and enabling event notifications while the object is being created.
When the host file (gzipFile) is empty, calling this ctor returns a new reference on a file whose filename
is deduced from the host file's filename, but does not create the item. Thus, calling this ctor
twice in a row will return different filenames. Once an item is created, calling this ctor always
returns that item.
This outputs:
file1: hello False
file2: hello.2 False
file1: hello False
file2: hello.2 True
file3: hello.2 True
AbstractFile hostFile = new DiskFile( @"d:\hello.gz" );
AbstractFile file1 = new GZippedFile( hostFile );
//Calling the constructor a second time when passing a host file that is empty will return a DIFFERENT filename.
AbstractFile file2 = new GZippedFile( hostFile );
Console.WriteLine( "file1: {0} {1}", file1.Name, file1.Exists );
Console.WriteLine( "file2: {0} {1}", file2.Name, file2.Exists );
//The item is created by calling the Create method.
file2.Create();
//Once the Create method has been called to create an item, calling the ctor always returns that item.
AbstractFile file3 = new GZippedFile( hostFile );
Console.WriteLine( "file1: {0} {1}", file1.Name, file1.Exists );
Console.WriteLine( "file2: {0} {1}", file2.Name, file2.Exists );
Console.WriteLine( "file3: {0} {1}", file3.Name, file3.Exists );
