Parameters

zipFileName

The fully-qualified path and name of the zip file.

encryptionPassword

The password that will be used to encrypt the files.

encryptionMethod

The EncryptionMethod used to encrypt the files. If EncryptionMethod.WinZipAes is passed, an encryption strength of 256 will be used.

replaceExistingFiles

Boolean value indicating whether existing files should be overwritten.

recursive

Boolean value indicating if files contained within sub-folders should be added to the zip file.

preservePaths

Boolean value indicating if the directory structure should be preserved in the zip file.

splitSize

The size, in bytes, of each split zip file part that will be created.

splitNameFormat

The naming convention the split zip file parts will follow.

sfx

The XceedSfxPrefix used to create the self-extracting zip file.

diskRequiredCallback

The callback method called whenever the DiskRequired event is triggered.

byteProgressionCallback

Delegate for ByteProgression notification.

itemProgressionCallback

Delegate for ItemProgression notification.

userParams

Opaque data that will be passed back to the event handler when an event is raised.

filesToZip

The files to add to zipFileName. Can contain filemasks and folder names (ending with a backslash). All subfolders will also be scanned for the specified file(s) even if wildcards are not used. For example, if "C:\test.txt" is specified, all "test.txt" files found on the "C:\" drive will be added to the zip file. Folders specified with the backslash after them will include their entire contents. Cannot be a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
