Properties Methods Events Configuration Settings
The ZipSFX component implements a PKZip-compatible Zip compressor to create a self-extracting archive which will run natively on Windows platforms.
NOTE: What follows is a very short description of the component interfaces. For more information, please consult the help files that come with the respective package.
The component uses the Deflate algorithm specified in RFC 1951 for compression, and then creates a self-extracting executable archive. This exe will bring up a dialog that will allow the user to select the target directory in which to decompress the files. There is also an optional splash screen that may be displayed before decompression. The text for this splash screen may be set with the BannerText property. You can also set the text that appears on the title bar of each dialog box using the CaptionText property.
Example (Creating a Self-Extracting Archive)
component.ArchiveFile = "c:\test.exe" component.RecurseSubdirectories = true component.SourceDirectory = "c:\foo\" component.CaptionText = "Testing ZipSFX" component.BannerText = "Press continue to decompress the archive." component.CreateSFX()
Note: When creating a self-extracting archive which exceeds 4 GB or more of uncompressed data or which contains more than 64K files, the component will create a 64-bit Zip archive.
The self-extracting archive that is created by the ZipSFX component is a Windows application. However, there are command line options available if you wish to batch multiple files. The options are:
For example, the following suppresses all questions and message boxes, and decompress to the current directory, use the following options:
ZipExtractor /targetpath="." /overwrite=1 /displaymessage=0 /openfile=0 /password=pass
Note that if you run the self-extracting archive with any command line options, the pop up message box containing the BannerText will be suppressed.
