    The following example demonstrates how to extract the contents of a zip file contained within the resources of an application to a local folder. 
    ' Create a stream that access a zip file contained within the resources
' of an application.
Dim resources As Stream = Me.GetType().Assembly.GetManifestResourceStream( "Resources.zip" )

' Initialize a new instance of the StreamFile class specifying the inner stream
' as well as the name of the file.
Dim file As New StreamFile( resources, "Resources.zip" )

' Initialize a new instance of the ZipArchive class using 
' newly created StreamFile object.
Dim zip As New ZipArchive( file )

' Copy files from the zip file contained within the resources to a local folder.
zip.CopyFilesTo( New DiskFolder( "d:\Destination" ), false, true )
    // Create a stream that access a zip file contained within the resources
// of an application.
Stream resources = this.GetType().Assembly.GetManifestResourceStream( "Resources.zip" );

// Initialize a new instance of the StreamFile class specifying the inner stream
// as well as the name of the file.
StreamFile file = new StreamFile( resources, "Resources.zip" );

// Initialize a new instance of the ZipArchive class using 
// newly created StreamFile object.
ZipArchive zip = new ZipArchive( file );

// Copy files from the zip file contained within the resources to a local folder.
zip.CopyFilesTo( new DiskFolder( @"d:\Destination" ), false, true );
