To create password-protected zip files, set the C1ZipFile.Password property to a non-empty string before creating any entries. Each entry may have its own password. For example:
| Visual Basic |
Copy Code
|
|---|---|
Dim zip As New C1ZipFile()
zip.Password = "password"
zip.Entries.Add(someFile)
|
|
| C# |
Copy Code
|
|---|---|
C1ZipFile zip = new C1ZipFile(); zip.Password = "password"; zip.Entries.Add(someFile); |
|
To extract this entry later, the C1ZipFile.Password property must be set to the same value in effect when the entry was added. For example:
| Visual Basic |
Copy Code
|
|---|---|
' Will fail, password not set. zip.Password = "" zip.Entries.Extract(someFile) ' Will fail, wrong password. zip.Password = "pass" zip.Entries.Extract(someFile) ' Will succeed. zip.Password = "password" zip.Entries.Extract(someFile) |
|
| C# |
Copy Code
|
|---|---|
// Will fail, password not set. zip.Password = ""; zip.Entries.Extract(someFile); // Will fail, wrong password. zip.Password = "pass"; zip.Entries.Extract(someFile); // Will succeed. zip.Password = "password"; zip.Entries.Extract(someFile); |
