Listing the contents of a zip file

In This Topic

This topic demonstrates how to list the contents of a zip file using the static GetZipContents method of the QuickZip class.

Basic steps

To list the contents of a zip file, the following steps must be performed:

Declare an array of QuickZipItem objects that will contain the result of the call to the GetZipContents method.
Iterate through the array of QuickZipItem objects to retrieve information on each QuickZipItem object it contains.

This example demonstrates how to list the contents of a zip file.

VB.NET Copy Code

VB.NET	Copy Code
`Imports Xceed.Zip` `Dim items As QuickZipItem() Dim item As QuickZipItem` `items = QuickZip.GetZipContents( "c:\test.zip", "*" ) For Each item In items Console.WriteLine( item.Name ) Next`

Imports Xceed.Zip

Dim items As QuickZipItem() Dim item As QuickZipItem

items = QuickZip.GetZipContents( "c:\test.zip", "*" ) For Each item In items Console.WriteLine( item.Name ) Next

C# Copy Code

C#	Copy Code
`using Xceed.Zip` `QuickZipItem[] items = QuickZip.GetZipContents( @"c:\test.zip", "*" );` `foreach( QuickZipItem item in items) { Console.WriteLine( item.Name ); }`

using Xceed.Zip

QuickZipItem[] items = QuickZip.GetZipContents( @"c:\test.zip", "*" );

foreach( QuickZipItem item in items) { Console.WriteLine( item.Name ); }

Do you want to do more complex zip file operations? Use the other classes defined within the Xceed.Zip namespace.
