View 2 RepliesHow exactly do you copy the content of a .rar/.zip file (from your resources) to an archive in the computer? (.jar - Java Archive)I mean without deleting existing data on the .jar file already. I use this code currently.The TestArchive is a .zip file, and when I press the button, it extracts the content of TestArchive to the .jar arhive, but deletes everything that was already inside the .jar archive.[code]...

View 1 RepliesI just need to set the archive bit on a file. I see the archive attribute in the FileInfo object which I would think allows me to read the state of the bit, but I'm not sure how I would actually set it.

View 2 RepliesWhat I need to know is how to archive UserControl inheritance with VB. I found some samples how to do this with C# and all of them work fine with C#. But when I try to translate this in VB I get an error (namespace not found) in my UserControl-XAML.
E.g. This link, Variant 1: [URL]
It seems to be easy in C# and impossible with VB.
This is my approach:
1) the class "TestBaseCtrl.vb"
Code:
Imports System.Windows.Data
Imports System.Windows.Documents
Imports System.Windows.Input
Imports System.Windows.Media
[Code] .....
Error message:
"The local.TestBastCtrl-type was not found. All assembly references have to exist and all assemblies, that are referenced, have to be built."
It seems to me that the compiler does not find the class in my namespace but I can assure that the namespace is as correct as it is in the C#-project. I need a UserControl to inherit from, there are several functions that should be integrated in all of my forms and I do not want to implement them in every form I want to create. If I get this working, I hope that this kind of UserControls will still be working within the CAL (Composite Application Libary)-Framework, but this will be another story for another day...
i am trying to create from vb.net code a 7zip arhive with password. I did that with winrar :
Dim ret As Long
ret = Shell("c:program fileswinrarwinrar a -ap c: est.rar -ptest c:1.txt c:2.txt")
But the same code doesn't work for 7 zip, i only manage to create the arhive, without password :
Dim ret As Long
ret = Shell("C:Program Files7-Zip7z.exe a c: est.7z c:1.txt")
I have this code to show percentage value of archive extraction. Now it shows 1-100% How do I make it have 2 more digits e.g 01.00-100.00% ? [code]

I've been working on an application that uses TCP to send messages to another computer, but I am going to be updating it alot!I know how to make my program update itself, but I just want a progress bar so you know how long it will take until the file is completely downloaded.Also does anyone know how to zip and unzip files in VB.NET, it would make my updater easier if it can just download a zip file and then unzip it and copy the contents to my applications running directory.
View 2 RepliesI am using Shell Dll to unzip zip file in vb.net 2005. Following is the code for this.
Dim sc As Shell32.Shell = New Shell32.Shell
Dim srcf As Shell32.Folder = sc.NameSpace(src)
Dim desf As Shell32.Folder = sc.NameSpace(des)
[code].....
As there are no zip/unzip functions in vb.net, has anyone figured a way to do this without using any 3rd party components?I was thinking there might be a way to call a shell32 command to gzip.dll, or some other way to use windows native unzip functions?

View 3 RepliesI was just wondering if anyone had come across this issue before or anything. I just downloaded Visual Studios 2008 professional trial version (ISO) and when I try to run it or open it, I get a "The operation could not be completed. Access is denied." message. I tried doing everything.I disabled my antivirus, uninstalled a previous version of VS 2008, I still get this message.
View 4 RepliesIm trying to write a program that displays the content of folders to show files and directories using a treeview with images. I have acheived this and the code is below but what i would like to do is to remove all unwanted parts of archives.Display Example.rar and remove Example.rar, Example.r00, Example.r01 or Display Example.rar and remove Example#Part1.rar, Example#Part2.rar
The reason why i am trying to do this is because i am looking to set a loop that will copy or extract files in certain directories but the problem is with partial files is that full extractions are done to each individual part. Say for example there is 10 files to one archive, the extraction is repeated 10 times, for 20 files, 20 full extractions and so on
Imports System.IO

I'm using jmcilhinney's library (found here), with a few modifications to make it compatible with VB.NET 2008. Using this forum's search feature, I see that it has been noted that SharpZipLib does support adding files to existing archives, but jmcilhinney's library does not implement this feature, and I have no idea where to start in writing my own method.

View 1 RepliesI need to unzip a list of .Z files which will be kept in a folder using Visual Basic.NET. For example, consider that there is a folder like C:FilesToBeUnzipped. Inside this folder there will some 5 to 6 files with .Z as extension. I need to unzip all these .Z files and save the unzipped files in a folder like C:UnzippedDataFiles.
Is this possible in VB.NET? Is there any free component or class library to achive it?

View 4 RepliesI am trying to find out how to zip and unzip a file in Visual Basic 2010. I have looked extensively on google and youtube, but found little of use. I was able to run one block of code though:
Sub CompressFile(ByVal filetozip As String, ByVal zipfile As String)
Try
Dim fs As FileStream
[Code]....
but this is not what I need. I am creating a Desktop Screen Capture Program, for personal use, that takes a screen when a set timer ticks (1 min or 60000 milliseconds) and in that timer tick a call to a sub is made, CompressFile( file, compressedfilename). See the problem here? It overwrites the compressed file with the second screenshot. So I need to know how to create a Zip Archive, preferably Not using Gzipstream. I need one that i can open in Winzip or 7-zip. And before you ask, yes I tried to add a reference to the 7z.dll, and error. It does not matter whether the solution to this problem requires outside or inside visual basic, though i ask you ensure it is Virus-Free if it involves downloading.
how would I copy files into a jar, as well as delete folders from that jar. Would I have to decompile it then recompile it? Would sharpziplib do the trick?
