Zip Tasks
Properties Configuration Settings
The Zip task implements a PKZip-compatible Zip compressor and decompressor.
Remarks
The Zip task is used when compressing or decompressing data in the form of files. The task uses the Deflate algorithm specified in RFC 1951 for compression, and produces and reads output compatible with PKZip, WinZip, etc.
Zip Assembler Task
The Assembler takes a group of files as input which contains raw data, and generates a Zip archive file as output.
Compression strength is regulated by the CompressionLevel property. You may also control encryption behavior by setting the Password and EncryptionAlgorithm properties on this task.
Zip Disassembler Task
The Disassembler takes a zipped file as input, and generates a group of unzipped files as output.
The Password property must be set in order to extract files which have been encrypted. You may also use the ExcludedFiles property to regulate which files are to be extracted from the archive.
