Jar Class
Properties Methods Events Config Settings Errors
The Jar class may be used to create or decompress Java archives.
Syntax
Jar
Remarks
The operation of the class is similar to that of Zip. .class and other files may be added into a .jar file, and then may be imported into Java code or executed by a JVM.
To create a new archive, first set the ArchiveFile property to the name of the archive to be created. Then, specify the files to be compressed either by invoking IncludeFiles, or by adding a new object to the Files collection and setting the values of the DecompressedName and CompressedName. fields. Finally, call the Compress method to create the archive.
To decompress an existing archive, set ArchiveFile to the name of the archive to be decompressed. The ExtractToPath property may be set, and then calling the ExtractAll method will decompress all files in the archive to this path.
For finer control, the Scan method should be used to read the file information stored in the archive. This will fill out the information in the Files collection. The values of DecompressedName may then be changed if desired. Finally, ExtractAll may be used to decompress the entire archive, or Extract may be used for finer control.
Data may be streamed out by setting WriteToProgressEvent to true. Then, the Progress event may be trapped to retrieve the data.
All Java archives contain two special entries, a META-INF directory and a manifest. By default, the class will automatically generate a default manifest and add the special entries to the beginning of the archive. To instead add a custom manifest to the archive the ManifestFile property should be set.
During decompression, the archive is treated as an ordinary zip file.
Example (Creating a Jar File)
ZipControl.ArchiveFile = "c:\test.jar"
ZipControl.RecurseSubdirectories = false
ZipControl.IncludeFiles("c:\code\*.class")
ZipControl.ManifestFile = "c:\code\manifest.mf"
ZipControl.Compress()
Example (Extracting from a Jar File)
ZipControl.ArchiveFile = "c:\test.jar"
ZipControl.ExtractToPath = "c:\extracted\"
ZipControl.Extract("*.class")

ArchiveFile Property (Jar Class)
The name of the zip, gzip, tar, or jar archive.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) char* GetArchiveFile();
int SetArchiveFile(const char* lpszArchiveFile); Unicode (Windows) LPWSTR GetArchiveFile();
INT SetArchiveFile(LPCWSTR lpszArchiveFile);
char* ipworkszip_jar_getarchivefile(void* lpObj);
int ipworkszip_jar_setarchivefile(void* lpObj, const char* lpszArchiveFile);
QString GetArchiveFile();
int SetArchiveFile(QString qsArchiveFile);
Default Value
""
Remarks
This property specifies the name of the archive to be read or written. This property is required when extracting files.
When Scan, Extract, or ExtractAll is invoked, the file specified by ArchiveFile will be opened for read. If the file does not exist, a trappable error will be generated.
When Compress is called, the file named by ArchiveFile will be written; if a file of this name already exists the Overwrite event will be fired. If ArchiveFile is set to the empty string (""), the archive will not be written to disk, and will be provided only through the Progress event.
The filename may be specified with or without a path. Paths may be relative or absolute, and should be specified in the format native to the host operating system. The filename should be specified with the appropriate extension (such as "zip"); an extension will not automatically be appended by the class.
If the file cannot be read, or written, as appropriate, a trappable error will be generated.
Example (Creating an Archive)
ZipControl.ArchiveFile = "c:\test.zip"
ZipControl.RecurseSubdirectories = true
ZipControl.IncludeFiles("c:\foo\*")
ZipControl.Compress()
Note: an archive already open for read may be closed by setting ArchiveFile to the empty string ("").
Data Type
String
CompressionLevel Property (Jar Class)
The compression level to use.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) int GetCompressionLevel();
int SetCompressionLevel(int iCompressionLevel); Unicode (Windows) INT GetCompressionLevel();
INT SetCompressionLevel(INT iCompressionLevel);
int ipworkszip_jar_getcompressionlevel(void* lpObj);
int ipworkszip_jar_setcompressionlevel(void* lpObj, int iCompressionLevel);
int GetCompressionLevel();
int SetCompressionLevel(int iCompressionLevel);
Default Value
4
Remarks
This property specifies the level of compression to be used, between 0 and 6. Higher values will cause the class to compress better; lower values will cause the class to compress faster. A value of 0 will store the file without compression.
Set the level of CompressionLevel in the BeginFile event to apply different levels of compression to different files.
Data Type
Integer
ExcludedFiles Property (Jar Class)
A list of files to exclude.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) char* GetExcludedFiles();
int SetExcludedFiles(const char* lpszExcludedFiles); Unicode (Windows) LPWSTR GetExcludedFiles();
INT SetExcludedFiles(LPCWSTR lpszExcludedFiles);
char* ipworkszip_jar_getexcludedfiles(void* lpObj);
int ipworkszip_jar_setexcludedfiles(void* lpObj, const char* lpszExcludedFiles);
QString GetExcludedFiles();
int SetExcludedFiles(QString qsExcludedFiles);
Default Value
""
Remarks
This property specifies files that should be excluded when Compress or Extract is invoked. When Compress is invoked, each value of DecompressedName in Files will be compared to ExcludedFiles, and each file will be excluded if the name matches. When Extract is called, each value of CompressedName in Files matching the parameter to Extract will be compared to ExcludedFiles, and will be excluded if appropriate. Calling the ExtractAll method will ignore this property and extract all files in the archive.
This property may be set to one or more filenames or directory names. Files may be specified with or without a path, and with or without wildcards. If a path is specified, files in the indicated directory will be excluded; subdirectories will be recursed into if RecurseSubdirectories is true. If no path is specified but wildcards are, matching files in all directories will be excluded. If a single filename without a path is specified, it must correspond exactly to the appropriate value of CompressedName or DecompressedName.
Directories should end with a slash ("/" or "\", as appropriate.) If a directory is specified, all files and subdirectories in the specified directory will be excluded.
A pipe character ("|") should be used to separate multiple file or directory names.
The following examples illustrate the use of the property:
Example
ZipControl.ArchiveFile = "c:\test.zip"
ZipControl.IncludeFiles("c:\test\*")
ZipControl.ExcludedFiles = "*.tmp"
ZipControl.Compress()
Example
ZipControl.ArchiveFile = "c:\test.tar"
ZipControl.Scan()
ZipControl.ExcludedFiles = "*.bak | backup/"
ZipControl.ExtractToPath = "c:\temp"
ZipControl.Extract("*")
As per the examples, the property should be specified differently for compression and
decompression. When invoking Compress, the format of ExcludedFiles should
correspond to that of the local file system. When invoking Extract the format should
correspond to standard (UNIX) format, and should not contain drive letters or backslashes.
You may exclude files based on their attributes as well: See the ExcludedAttributes configuration setting for more information.
If the property is set to the empty string, no files will be excluded. This property is never reset automatically, so be sure to reset it manually if using a single instance of the class for both compression and extraction. Failure to do so may result in I/O errors or unexpected results.
Data Type
String
ExtractToPath Property (Jar Class)
A base path to decompress to.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) char* GetExtractToPath();
int SetExtractToPath(const char* lpszExtractToPath); Unicode (Windows) LPWSTR GetExtractToPath();
INT SetExtractToPath(LPCWSTR lpszExtractToPath);
char* ipworkszip_jar_getextracttopath(void* lpObj);
int ipworkszip_jar_setextracttopath(void* lpObj, const char* lpszExtractToPath);
QString GetExtractToPath();
int SetExtractToPath(QString qsExtractToPath);
Default Value
""
Remarks
Setting the ExtractToPath property affects the operation of the Extract and ExtractAll methods. Setting this property to a nonempty string will cause all decompressed files to be written to the specified path. If pathnames are given in the values of DecompressedName they will be regarded as relative to ExtractToPath.
If the specified directory does not exist, it will be created when extraction is done.
ExtractToPath should always be specified in the format native to the host operating system, and with a trailing slash or backslash. If the path is specified otherwise, it will be immediately converted and stored in the converted format. For example, "/temp" would be immediately converted to "\temp\" on a Windows system.
Example (Extracting from an Archive)
ZipControl.ArchiveFile = "c:\temp.zip"
ZipControl.ExtractToPath = "c:\extracted\"
ZipControl.ExtractAll()
Example - Adding Files
Dim i as Integer
ZipControl.ArchiveFile = "c:\test.zip"
ZipControl.Scan()
For i = 0 to ZipControl.Files.Count - 1
ZipControl.Files(i).DecompressedName(i) = "c:\temp\" + ZipControl.Files(i).DecompressedName
Next i
ZipControl.ExtractToPath = ""
ZipControl.ExtractAll()
ZipControl.IncludeFiles("c:\extra\*")
ZipControl.Compress()
Data Type
String
Files Property (Jar Class)
Collection of Jar archive files.
Syntax
IPWorksZipList<IPWorksZipJARFile>* GetFiles(); int SetFiles(IPWorksZipList<IPWorksZipJARFile>* val);
int ipworkszip_jar_getfilecount(void* lpObj);
int ipworkszip_jar_setfilecount(void* lpObj, int iFileCount);
int64 ipworkszip_jar_getfilecompresseddate(void* lpObj, int fileindex);

int ipworkszip_jar_setfileinputdata(void* lpObj, int fileindex, const char* lpFileInputData, int lenFileInputData);
int ipworkszip_jar_setfileinputstream(void* lpObj, int fileindex, IPWorksZipStream* sFileInputStream);
int GetFileCount();
int SetFileCount(int iFileCount); qint64 GetFileCompressedDate(int iFileIndex);
int SetFileCompressedDate(int iFileIndex, qint64 lFileCompressedDate); QString GetFileCompressedName(int iFileIndex);
int SetFileCompressedName(int iFileIndex, QString qsFileCompressedName); qint64 GetFileCompressedSize(int iFileIndex); QString GetFileDecompressedName(int iFileIndex);
int SetFileDecompressedName(int iFileIndex, QString qsFileDecompressedName); qint64 GetFileDecompressedSize(int iFileIndex); QByteArray GetFileInputData(int iFileIndex);
int SetFileInputData(int iFileIndex, QByteArray qbaFileInputData); int SetFileInputStream(int iFileIndex, IPWorksZipStream* sFileInputStream);
Remarks
When a compressed archive is scanned or decompressed, the values of this collection are populated accordingly.
When creating a compressed archive, this property may be used to set the files to be stored. For each entry added to the collection, the DecompressedName field should be set to the name of the file to be decompressed, and the CompressedName field should be set to the filename to store in the archive.
Archives may also be created using the IncludeFiles method. Invoking the IncludeFiles method causes the values of this collection to be filled out. These values may then be changed directly if desired.
Note that Jar archives always contain two special entries: a manifest file, and a META-INF directory. When Compress is invoked, the values of the CompressedName fields will be checked, and the special entries will be added at the beginning if necessary. Note that this will cause all existing files to be shifted.
Data Type
JarData Property (Jar Class)
(Decompression only) The jar file contents as a byte array.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) int SetJarData(const char* lpJarData, int lenJarData); Unicode (Windows) INT SetJarData(LPCSTR lpJarData, INT lenJarData);
int ipworkszip_jar_setjardata(void* lpObj, const char* lpJarData, int lenJarData);
int SetJarData(QByteArray qbaJarData);
Default Value
""
Remarks
Normally you should set ArchiveFile before invoking Scan or Extract. If you prefer to read the jar file from memory you may set JarData instead. JarData should be set to the entire contents of the jar file; this will allow you to read from the archive without writing any temporary files to disk.
If you would like to extract data from the archive without ever writing to disk you should also set WriteToProgressEvent to true, and after invoking Scan, you should set the value of DecompressedName for each file in the Files collection to an empty string. Then, when you invoke Extract (or ExtractAll) the data will be provided in the Progress event.
This property is write-only. Note that modifying a jar file stored in JarData is not supported, so Append, Delete, etc., will throw exceptions.
This property is write-only and not available at design time.
Data Type
Binary String
ManifestFile Property (Jar Class)
The name of the manifest file.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) char* GetManifestFile();
int SetManifestFile(const char* lpszManifestFile); Unicode (Windows) LPWSTR GetManifestFile();
INT SetManifestFile(LPCWSTR lpszManifestFile);
char* ipworkszip_jar_getmanifestfile(void* lpObj);
int ipworkszip_jar_setmanifestfile(void* lpObj, const char* lpszManifestFile);
QString GetManifestFile();
int SetManifestFile(QString qsManifestFile);
Default Value
""
Remarks
This property specifies the location of the manifest to be written to the jar archive.
The filename may be specified with or without a path. Paths may be relative or absolute, and should be specified in the format native to the host operating system. If the format is not native to the host operating system, the class will immediately attempt to convert it.
When Compress is invoked, the location of the manifest is determined according to ManifestFile and the CompressedName and DecompressedName fields of the Files collection. The collection will be updated immediately prior to compression, and additional entries will be added at the beginning if necessary. If ManifestFile is set to a nonempty string, its value will be written to the appropriate value of DecompressedName, overwriting any pre-existing value. If ManifestFile is set to an empty string, and any value of the CompressedName field in the Files collection has the value "META-INF/MANIFEST.MF", the corresponding value of DecompressedName will be used as the source of the manifest. If a source for the manifest is not specified, a default manifest will automatically be generated and added to the archive.
When Scan is called (either by the user or by Extract or ExtractAll), the location of the manifest will be determined, and the value of this property will be set to the corresponding value of the DecompressedName for that file. The value of ManifestFile may then be changed to write the manifest to a different location.
After calling Scan, "META-INF/MANIFEST.MF" may be passed as an argument to Extract to extract the manifest.
If during compression the file cannot be read, a trappable error will be generated.
Data Type
String
OverwriteFiles Property (Jar Class)
Whether or not to overwrite files.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) int GetOverwriteFiles();
int SetOverwriteFiles(int bOverwriteFiles); Unicode (Windows) BOOL GetOverwriteFiles();
INT SetOverwriteFiles(BOOL bOverwriteFiles);
int ipworkszip_jar_getoverwritefiles(void* lpObj);
int ipworkszip_jar_setoverwritefiles(void* lpObj, int bOverwriteFiles);
bool GetOverwriteFiles();
int SetOverwriteFiles(bool bOverwriteFiles);
Default Value
TRUE
Remarks
If this property is set to true, existing files will be overwritten when decompressing. When Extract or ExtractAll is called, each file specified in Files will be checked for existence. If a file exists, the Overwrite event will be fired, and the files will be overwritten if OverwriteFiles is set to true.
More precise control of which files should be overwritten may be gained by listening to the Overwrite event and altering its parameters when the event is fired.
This property only affects the operation of Extract and ExtractAll. When compressing files, ArchiveFile will always be overwritten unless the user specifies otherwise in the Overwrite event.
Data Type
Boolean
RecurseSubdirectories Property (Jar Class)
Whether or not to recurse into subdirectories.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) int GetRecurseSubdirectories();
int SetRecurseSubdirectories(int bRecurseSubdirectories); Unicode (Windows) BOOL GetRecurseSubdirectories();
INT SetRecurseSubdirectories(BOOL bRecurseSubdirectories);
int ipworkszip_jar_getrecursesubdirectories(void* lpObj);
int ipworkszip_jar_setrecursesubdirectories(void* lpObj, int bRecurseSubdirectories);
bool GetRecurseSubdirectories();
int SetRecurseSubdirectories(bool bRecurseSubdirectories);
Default Value
TRUE
Remarks
This property affects the behavior of IncludeFiles and Extract and the meaning of ExcludedFiles. If this property is set to true, IncludeFiles will recurse into all subdirectories whenever it performs a search on the file system.
Be sure RecurseSubdirectories is set to the appropriate value before invoking IncludeFiles, Extract, or Compress; changing the value of this property after method calls will not retroactively alter their effects.
Example (Creating an Archive)
ZipControl.ArchiveFile = "c:\test.zip"
ZipControl.RecurseSubdirectories = true
ZipControl.IncludeFiles("c:\foo\*")
ZipControl.Compress()
Data Type
Boolean
Abort Method (Jar Class)
Aborts the current operation.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) int Abort(); Unicode (Windows) INT Abort();
int ipworkszip_jar_abort(void* lpObj);
int Abort();
Remarks
Abort may be used to immediately interrupt compression or decompression. Any files partially written by the class will be deleted.
In case Append or Delete is aborted the archive will be left in its original state.
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
AppendFiles Method (Jar Class)
Adds specified files to an existing archive.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) int AppendFiles(); Unicode (Windows) INT AppendFiles();
int ipworkszip_jar_appendfiles(void* lpObj);
int AppendFiles();
Remarks
All files contained in the Files collection will be appended to the archive specified by ArchiveFile.
When AppendFiles is called, only those files which are to be added to the archive must exist inside the collection. Note that if you call Scan or Extract, you must empty the collection before adding files to the collection to be appended.
After the file is added, the collection will be updated appropriately.
This method may only be used to add files to an existing archive. To add files to a new archive, the IncludeFiles and Compress methods should be used.
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
Compress Method (Jar Class)
Creates the compressed archive.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) int Compress(); Unicode (Windows) INT Compress();
int ipworkszip_jar_compress(void* lpObj);
int Compress();
Remarks
Invoking Compress creates the archive specified by ArchiveFile. When the method is called, all files specified by the DecompressedName field of the Files collection will be compressed and written to ArchiveFile.
The compressed data may be streamed out by setting WriteToProgressEvent to true. If streaming is enabled the compressed data will also be provided via the Progress event. If ArchiveFile is set to an empty string the archive will be written only to this event.
The files to compress are specified in the Files collection. The file names are specified by CompressedName and DecompressedName. These should be specified before invoking Compress, either manually or by invoking IncludeFiles.
The BeginFile and EndFile events will be fired as files are processed, and the Progress event will be fired as data is compressed.
Existing files will be overwritten by the class if OverwriteFiles is set to true. Finer control over which files are overwritten may be gained by trapping the Overwrite event.
Example (Creating an Archive)
ZipControl.ArchiveFile = "c:\test.zip"
ZipControl.RecurseSubdirectories = true
ZipControl.IncludeFiles("c:\foo\*")
ZipControl.Compress()
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
Config Method (Jar Class)
Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) char* Config(const char* lpszConfigurationString); Unicode (Windows) LPWSTR Config(LPCWSTR lpszConfigurationString);
char* ipworkszip_jar_config(void* lpObj, const char* lpszConfigurationString);
QString Config(const QString& qsConfigurationString);
Remarks
Config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the class.
These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.
To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).
To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a String value; after it returns, call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain its result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.
Delete Method (Jar Class)
Deletes one or more files from an existing archive.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) int Delete(const char* lpszFilenames); Unicode (Windows) INT Delete(LPCWSTR lpszFilenames);
int ipworkszip_jar_delete(void* lpObj, const char* lpszFilenames);
int Delete(const QString& qsFilenames);
Remarks
Delete deletes one or more files from an existing archive, without reprocessing the compressed data. The archive will be opened immediately, and the file(s) will immediately be removed permanently from the archive.
Note that with the Jar component Delete may be used to delete the manifest. Although this is allowed, an exception will be fired after the deletion is complete. The exception may be caught and ignored, or Append may be then used to replace the manifest.
The list of filenames should be specified exactly as when calling Extract:
Filenames may be set to one or more filenames or directory names. Files may be specified with or without a path, and with or without wildcards. If a path is specified, files in the indicated directory will be affected; subdirectories will be recursed into if RecurseSubdirectories is true. If no path is specified but wildcards are, matching files in all directories will be affected. If a single filename without a path is specified, it must correspond exactly to the appropriate value of CompressedName.
Directories should end with a slash ("/"). If a directory is specified, all files and subdirectories in the specified directory will be affected.
A pipe character ("|") should be used to separate multiple file or directory names. Alternatively, the method may be invoked repeatedly.
The ExcludedFiles property may be used to further limit the files to be deleted. When Delete is used to delete a directory or match wildcards, each file to be deleted is first compared against ExcludedFiles, and any files marked as excluded will not be deleted. When Delete is used to delete a single file, the value of ExcludedFiles will be ignored.
When the method is invoked, the Scan method will first be invoked, if it has not been invoked already. Note that if IncludeFiles has been invoked, or if the values of CompressedName and DecompressedName for each file in the Files collection have been set, this information will be reset by the call to Scan.
When deleting multiple files, the class will operate most efficiently if all filenames are passed to Delete in a single invocation of the method. Invoking Delete repeatedly on large archives is not recommended.
Invoking Delete will only remove files from ArchiveFile; it will not delete the files from the disk.
Example
ZipControl.ArchiveFile = "c:\\test.zip"
ZipControl.Delete("default_readme.txt");
ZipControl.Append("\\mydir\\my_readme.txt", "my_readme.txt")
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
Extract Method (Jar Class)
Extracts a single file, directory, or group of files, from the archive.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) int Extract(const char* lpszFilenames); Unicode (Windows) INT Extract(LPCWSTR lpszFilenames);
int ipworkszip_jar_extract(void* lpObj, const char* lpszFilenames);
int Extract(const QString& qsFilenames);
Remarks
Extract extracts one or more files from the archive. The file(s) will be extracted to the directory specified by ExtractToPath, and given the names found in the archive or specified by the DecompressedName of the file in the Files collection.
Filenames may be set to one or more filenames or directory names. Files may be specified with or without a path, and with or without wildcards. If a path is specified, files in the indicated directory will be affected; subdirectories will be recursed into if RecurseSubdirectories is true. If no path is specified but wildcards are, matching files in all directories will be affected. If a single filename without a path is specified, it must correspond exactly to the appropriate value of CompressedName.
Directories should end with a slash ("/"). If a directory is specified, all files and subdirectories in the specified directory will be affected.
A pipe character ("|") should be used to separate multiple file or directory names. Alternatively, the method may be invoked repeatedly.
The ExcludedFiles property may be used to further limit the files to be extracted. When Extract is used to extract a directory or match wildcards, each file to be extracted is first compared against ExcludedFiles, and any files marked as excluded will not be extracted. When Extract is used to extract a single file, the value of ExcludedFiles will be ignored.
To extract all files in the archive, the ExtractAll method may be used.
The BeginFile and EndFile events will be fired before and after each file is extracted, and the Progress event will be fired as the data is extracted. If WriteToProgressEvent is set to true, the decompressed data will be streamed out through the Progress event.
Example
ZipControl.ArchiveFile = "c:\test.tar"
ZipControl.ExcludedFiles = "*.bak | backup/"
ZipControl.ExtractToPath = "c:\temp"
ZipControl.Extract("*")
Example
ZipControl.ArchiveFile = "c:\test.zip"
ZipControl.ExcludedFiles = ""
ZipControl.ExtractToPath = "c:\temp"
ZipControl.Extract("code/")
Example
ZipControl.ArchiveFile = "c:\test.jar"
ZipControl.ExcludedFiles = "*.txt"
ZipControl.ExtractToPath = "c:\"
ZipControl.Extract("* | docs/readme.txt")
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
ExtractAll Method (Jar Class)
Extracts all files from the compressed archive.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) int ExtractAll(); Unicode (Windows) INT ExtractAll();
int ipworkszip_jar_extractall(void* lpObj);
int ExtractAll();
Remarks
ExtractAll extracts all files from the archive. The file(s) will be extracted to the directory specified by ExtractToPath, and given the names found in the archive or specified by the DecompressedName field of the file in the Files collection.
If Scan has not been invoked when ExtractAll is called, Scan will automatically be invoked, and the Files collection will be set to the values found in the archive. To manually set the decompressed filenames, Scan should be invoked before setting the DecompressedName field.
Invoking this method is equivalent to setting ExcludedFiles to the empty string, and then invoking Extract with "*" as the argument. Calling this method will cause the ExcludedFiles property to be ignored; to extract all files except those specified by ExcludedFiles, call the Extract method with the wildcard "*" as the method parameter instead of calling this method.
The BeginFile and EndFile events will be fired before and after each file is extracted, and the Progress event will be fired as the data is extracted. If WriteToProgressEvent is set to true, the decompressed data will be streamed out through the Progress event.
Example (Extracting from an Archive)
ZipControl.ArchiveFile = "c:\temp.zip"
ZipControl.ExtractToPath = "c:\extracted\"
ZipControl.ExtractAll()
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
IncludeFiles Method (Jar Class)
Specifies that the indicated files should be added to the archive.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) int IncludeFiles(const char* lpszfilenames); Unicode (Windows) INT IncludeFiles(LPCWSTR lpszfilenames);
int ipworkszip_jar_includefiles(void* lpObj, const char* lpszfilenames);
int IncludeFiles(const QString& qsfilenames);
Remarks
IncludeFiles may be used before Compress, to specify the files to be compressed. Invoking this method populates the Files collection accordingly.
Invoking the method does not create or alter the archive.
The argument should be a pipe ("|") -delimited sequence of one or more filenames. The filenames should be specified with paths if necessary, so that the files may be found on the local file system. The filenames will be stored as is in the DecompressedName field, and without a pathname in the CompressedName field of the Files collection.
Filenames may include the wildcards '?', '*', and '[ .. ]'. '?' will match any single character, and '*' will match an arbitrary sequence of characters. '[ .. ]' may be used to match any of the characters inside, or a range, such as '[a-z]'. A '\' can be used to escape wildcard characters.
If wildcards are specified, the file system will be scanned and all files matching the specified mask will be added. Moreover, subdirectories will be recursed into if RecurseSubdirectories is set to true. When recursing into subdirectories, relative path information will be stored in CompressedName field of the Files collection.
The ExcludedFiles may be used to limit the files to be compressed. This property is checked when Compress is invoked, rather than when IncludeFiles is invoked, so this property may be set before or after invoking IncludeFiles.
Note that invoking IncludeFiles will not reset the class, or remove old values of CompressedName and DecompressedName. This may be done by first clearing the Files collection.
Example
ZipControl.IncludeFiles("c:\test\* | c:\readme")
ZipControl.ExcludedFiles = "*.tmp"
ZipControl.Compress()
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
Reset Method (Jar Class)
Resets the class.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) int Reset(); Unicode (Windows) INT Reset();
int ipworkszip_jar_reset(void* lpObj);
int Reset();
Remarks
Reset resets the state of the class. The Files collection will be cleared, all properties will be set to their default values, and any files open will be closed.
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
Scan Method (Jar Class)
Scans the compressed archive.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) int Scan(); Unicode (Windows) INT Scan();
int ipworkszip_jar_scan(void* lpObj);
int Scan();
Remarks
This method will scan the archive specified by ArchiveFile. The number of files and their names and sizes will be determined and written to the Files collection.
After scanning the archive, the values of DecompressedName may be changed if desired, and any number of files may be decompressed. The Extract method allows you to decompress files of your choice, and the ExtractAll method will decompress the entire archive.
Changing the values of the CompressedName field or the number of files in the Files collection will invalidate the scan. If either of these is changed and Extract or ExtractAll is then called; Scan will automatically be called again, and these values will be reset to their original values.
Calling this method will frequently generate a trappable error if the archive is corrupt. This is not guaranteed, however, as Scan only examines the headers.
Example
Dim i As Integer
ZipControl.ArchiveFile = "c:\temp.zip"
ZipControl.Scan
For i = 0 To ZipControl.FileCount - 1
Debug.Print "File Name: " & ZipControl.FileDecompressedName(i)
Debug.Print "File Size: " & ZipControl.FileDecompressedSize(i)
Next i
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
SetArchiveInputStream Method (Jar Class)
The stream to read the zip, tar, jar, or gzip archive from.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) int SetArchiveInputStream(IPWorksZipStream* sArchiveStream); Unicode (Windows) INT SetArchiveInputStream(IPWorksZipStream* sArchiveStream);
int ipworkszip_jar_setarchiveinputstream(void* lpObj, IPWorksZipStream* sArchiveStream);
int SetArchiveInputStream(IPWorksZipStream* sArchiveStream);
Remarks
This method should be set when the archive is to be read from a stream when Extract is called.
By default, and when this is set to null, the class will read from the file specified by ArchiveFile. However, when this is a valid stream, the data will be read from the stream.
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
SetArchiveOutputStream Method (Jar Class)
The stream to write the zip, tar, jar, or gzip archive to.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) int SetArchiveOutputStream(IPWorksZipStream* sArchiveStream); Unicode (Windows) INT SetArchiveOutputStream(IPWorksZipStream* sArchiveStream);
int ipworkszip_jar_setarchiveoutputstream(void* lpObj, IPWorksZipStream* sArchiveStream);
int SetArchiveOutputStream(IPWorksZipStream* sArchiveStream);
Remarks
This method should be set when the archive is to be written to a stream when Compress is called.
By default, and when this is set to null, the class will write to the file specified by ArchiveFile. However, when this is a valid stream, the data will be written to the stream.
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
BeginFile Event (Jar Class)
Fired before each file is processed.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) virtual int FireBeginFile(JarBeginFileEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
int Index;
int Skip; int reserved; } JarBeginFileEventParams;
Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireBeginFile(JarBeginFileEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
INT Index;
BOOL Skip; INT reserved; } JarBeginFileEventParams;
#define EID_JAR_BEGINFILE 1 virtual INT IPWORKSZIP_CALL FireBeginFile(INT &iIndex, BOOL &bSkip);
class JarBeginFileEventParams { public: int Index(); bool Skip(); void SetSkip(bool bSkip); int EventRetVal(); void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal); };
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void BeginFile(JarBeginFileEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass Jar and override this emitter function. virtual int FireBeginFile(JarBeginFileEventParams *e) {...}
Remarks
BeginFile is fired before each file is processed by the compressor or decompressor, as appropriate. Index contains the array index of the file about to be processed, and the CompressedName, DecompressedName, CompressedSize (decompression only), and DecompressedSize fields of the Files collection for this index contain more detailed information about the file about to be processed.
When extracting, an alternate location may be specified by trapping the event, and modifying DecompressedName and/or ExtractToPath. If DecompressedName is set to an empty string, the file will not be written to disk. If WriteToProgressEvent is true, the file will still be decompressed, and the data may be extracted through the Progress event.
This event may also be trapped while compressing. CompressedName and DecompressedName may be changed.
You may set the Skip parameter to true in order to skip the file completely while compressing or extracting.
EndFile Event (Jar Class)
Fired after each file is processed.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) virtual int FireEndFile(JarEndFileEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
int Index; int reserved; } JarEndFileEventParams;
Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireEndFile(JarEndFileEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
INT Index; INT reserved; } JarEndFileEventParams;
#define EID_JAR_ENDFILE 2 virtual INT IPWORKSZIP_CALL FireEndFile(INT &iIndex);
class JarEndFileEventParams { public: int Index(); int EventRetVal(); void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal); };
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void EndFile(JarEndFileEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass Jar and override this emitter function. virtual int FireEndFile(JarEndFileEventParams *e) {...}
Remarks
EndFile is fired after each file is processed by the compressor or decompressor, as appropriate. Index contains the array index of the file processed, and the CompressedName, DecompressedName, CompressedSize, and DecompressedSize fields in the Files collection for this index contain more detailed information about the file processed.
Error Event (Jar Class)
Information about non-fatal errors.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) virtual int FireError(JarErrorEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
const char *Description;
int ErrorCode;
int Index;
const char *Filename;
int Ignore; int reserved; } JarErrorEventParams;
Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireError(JarErrorEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
LPCWSTR Description;
INT ErrorCode;
INT Index;
LPCWSTR Filename;
BOOL Ignore; INT reserved; } JarErrorEventParams;
#define EID_JAR_ERROR 3 virtual INT IPWORKSZIP_CALL FireError(LPSTR &lpszDescription, INT &iErrorCode, INT &iIndex, LPSTR &lpszFilename, BOOL &bIgnore);
class JarErrorEventParams { public: const QString &Description(); int ErrorCode(); int Index(); const QString &Filename(); bool Ignore(); void SetIgnore(bool bIgnore); int EventRetVal(); void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal); };
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void Error(JarErrorEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass Jar and override this emitter function. virtual int FireError(JarErrorEventParams *e) {...}
Remarks
The Error event is fired when non-fatal errors occur during compression or decompression. Note that if this event is fired during decompression this may indicate that the archive is corrupt.
By default these errors will cause the component to fail with an exception. The exception may be overridden by setting Ignore to true. This will cause the error to be ignored, the file will be skipped if necessary, and the class will continue operation.
ErrorCode will correspond to one of the following errors:
1 | Bad or missing CRC-32 checksum. |
2 | Failed to set creation date of a file. |
111 | Can't open file for read (skipping). |
Description contains a textual description of the error. Index and Filename contain the array index (where appropriate) and filename of the file being processed at the time of the error.
Overwrite Event (Jar Class)
Fired whenever a file exists and may be overwritten.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) virtual int FireOverwrite(JarOverwriteEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
char *Filename;
int Overwrite; int reserved; } JarOverwriteEventParams;
Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireOverwrite(JarOverwriteEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
LPWSTR Filename;
BOOL Overwrite; INT reserved; } JarOverwriteEventParams;
#define EID_JAR_OVERWRITE 4 virtual INT IPWORKSZIP_CALL FireOverwrite(LPSTR &lpszFilename, BOOL &bOverwrite);
class JarOverwriteEventParams { public: const QString &Filename(); void SetFilename(const QString &qsFilename); bool Overwrite(); void SetOverwrite(bool bOverwrite); int EventRetVal(); void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal); };
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void Overwrite(JarOverwriteEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass Jar and override this emitter function. virtual int FireOverwrite(JarOverwriteEventParams *e) {...}
Remarks
Overwrite is fired when a file is about to be overwritten, and would overwrite an existing file. The event is fired during decompression.
Filename contains the full name of the file, specified with its pathname.
Overwrite specifies whether or not the file will be overwritten. For Zip, Jar, and Tar, this is equal by default to the value of the OverwriteFiles property. For Gzip, this value defaults to true.
Either of the parameters may be changed when the event is fired. Changing the value of Overwrite will override the default behavior of the class, and cause the file to be overwritten or not overwritten, depending on the value set. If Filename is changed, the value of Overwrite will be ignored, and the file will be written with the specified name. If a file of the new name also exists this file will be silently overwritten.
Progress Event (Jar Class)
Fired as progress is made.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) virtual int FireProgress(JarProgressEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
const char *Data; int lenData;
const char *Filename;
int64 BytesProcessed;
int PercentProcessed; int reserved; } JarProgressEventParams;
Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireProgress(JarProgressEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
LPCSTR Data; INT lenData;
LPCWSTR Filename;
LONG64 BytesProcessed;
INT PercentProcessed; INT reserved; } JarProgressEventParams;
#define EID_JAR_PROGRESS 5 virtual INT IPWORKSZIP_CALL FireProgress(LPSTR &lpData, INT &lenData, LPSTR &lpszFilename, LONG64 &lBytesProcessed, INT &iPercentProcessed);
class JarProgressEventParams { public: const QByteArray &Data(); const QString &Filename(); qint64 BytesProcessed(); int PercentProcessed(); int EventRetVal(); void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal); };
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void Progress(JarProgressEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass Jar and override this emitter function. virtual int FireProgress(JarProgressEventParams *e) {...}
Remarks
The Progress event is automatically fired as compression or decompression is performed. When WriteToProgressEvent is true, the output data is provided through the Data parameter, allowing for it to be streamed out.
Filename contains the name of the file being written. If no file is being written, Filename will contain an empty string, and the output data will be provided exclusively through this event.
BytesProcessed contains the total number of uncompressed bytes processed. PercentProcessed contains the percent of uncompressed bytes processed, corresponding roughly to the running time of the operation.
For Gzip extraction only, BytesProcessed and PercentProcessed will reflect the number of compressed bytes extracted, as it is generally impossible to predetermine the total uncompressed size.
If WriteToProgressEvent is false, Data will contain null.
JARFile Type
The Jar file in the archive.
Syntax
IPWorksZipJARFile (declared in ipworkszip.h)
Remarks
This type contains information about the Jar file that either exists in the archive or is being added to the archive.
Fields
CompressedDate
int64
Default Value: 0
The date and time of the entry, as stored within the archive.
FileCompressedDate contains the last modified date of the file, as stored within the archive (it does not generally correspond to when the file was compressed).
FileCompressedDate is returned in a platform-specific format. The Java,C++, and most other Editions will return the number of milliseconds since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00. This value may be passed directly to the java.util.Date constructor to create a java.util.Date object representing this date.
The .NET Edition will return the number of ticks, or 100-nanosecond intervals, since January 1, 0001, 00:00:00. This value may be passed directly to the System.DateTime constructor to create a System.DateTime object representing this date.
Reading the value of this property will return a meaningful value only after the archive has been successfully scanned or decompressed, and only if the values of ArchiveFile, Files collection, and CompressedName have not been changed since. If a meaningful value is not available this property will return a value of 0.
NOTE: This may be set accordingly when the InputStream field is set to a valid stream to input the data for the current file. If not set, the default, 0, is used. Otherwise the value is read from disk.
CompressedName
char*
Default Value: ""
The file name of the current file, as stored inside of the archive. This may be the same as in DecompressedName, but is not required to be.
All paths are stored in the archive in standard (UNIX) format. Pathnames specified in the host operating system's format will be immediately converted.
This field should generally be set with a relative path or with no path at all. The exact interpretation of the path is left to the decompression software; generally, pathnames will be interpreted as relative to a base directory, and these subdirectories will be created as needed. Absolute pathnames (paths beginning with a / character) will not be interpreted correctly by the class, and may or may not be interpreted correctly by other decompression software.
Paths should be specified in standard (UNIX) format. They may also be specified in the format native to the host operating system, in which case they will be immediately converted.
Example
ZipControl.ArchiveFile = "c:\test.zip"
ZipControl.Files.Add(new ZIPFile())
ZipControl.Files[0].DecompressedName = "c:\test\ipworkszip\temp\test.txt"
ZipControl.Files[0].CompressedName = "readme.txt"
ZipControl.Compress()
CompressedSize
int64 (read-only)
Default Value: -1
The size of the compressed data, as compressed within the archive. Headers, footers, etc., are not included in the size.
Reading the value of this property will return a meaningful value only after the archive has been compressed, scanned, or decompressed, and only if the values of ArchiveFile, or Files have not been changed since. If a meaningful value is not available this property will return a value of -1.
DecompressedName
char*
Default Value: ""
The name of the file in the archive, as stored on the file system, outside the archive.
When compressing files, This field should be specified with a path, if necessary, to allow the file to be found by the class. If the file cannot be found during compression, a trappable error will be generated, and the archive will not be correctly written.
When decompressing files, the field indicates where the file should be written. After the archive is scanned, the values of CompressedName and DecompressedName will be set to the exact filenames found in the archive. The value of DecompressedName may then be changed if desired.
If DecompressedName is set to an empty string before extraction, the file will not be written to disk at all. It will still be written to the Progress event if WriteToProgressEvent is set to true.
If DecompressedName is set to an empty string before compression, the file will be skipped, and not written to the archive.
A base path for decompression may be specified by setting the ExtractToPath property. If ExtractToPath is set to a non-empty string, the files will be decompressed to the directory specified in ExtractToPath. If the value of DecompressedName contains a pathname it will be regarded as relative to ExtractToPath.
Paths on the local file system should be specified in the format native to the host operating system. They may also be specified in standard (UNIX) format, in which case they will be immediately converted.
Example
ZipControl.ArchiveFile = "c:\test.tar"
ZipControl.Scan()
ZipControl.ExtractToPath = "c:\temp\"
ZipControl.Files[1].DecompressedName = "test\temp.out"
ZipControl.Extract(ZipControl.Files[1].CompressedName)
Incorrect Example
ZipControl.ExtractToPath = "c:\temp\"
ZipControl.Files[1].DecompressedName = "c:\temp\test\temp.out"
'The file would be extracted to c:\temp\c:\temp\test\temp.out
DecompressedSize
int64 (read-only)
Default Value: -1
The size of the file, as decompressed outside the archive. If an archive is open for read (i.e. has been scanned or decompressed), this information will be read from the archive headers. If an archive is not open for read, the class will retrieve the information for the corresponding value of DecompressedName from the local file system.
A value of -1 will be returned in case of an I/O error.
InputData
char*
Default Value: ""
When This field is set, the class will read in the data from This field instead of reading from the file contained in the DecompressedName field.
Constructors
JARFile()
JARFile(const char* lpszDecompressedName)
JARFile(const char* lpszCompressedName, const char* lpszDecompressedName)
JARFile(const char* lpszCompressedName, IPWorksZipStream* sInputStream)
IPWorksZipList Type
Syntax
IPWorksZipList<T> (declared in ipworkszip.h)
Remarks
IPWorksZipList is a generic class that is used to hold a collection of objects of type T, where T is one of the custom types supported by the Jar class.
Methods | |
GetCount |
This method returns the current size of the collection.
int GetCount() {}
|
SetCount |
This method sets the size of the collection. This method returns 0 if setting the size was successful; or -1 if the collection is ReadOnly. When adding additional objects to a collection call this method to specify the new size. Increasing the size of the collection preserves existing objects in the collection.
int SetCount() {}
|
Get |
This method gets the item at the specified position. The index parameter specifies the index of the item in the collection. This method returns NULL if an invalid index is specified.
T* Get(int index) {}
|
Set |
This method sets the item at the specified position. The index parameter specifies the index of the item in the collection that is being set. This method returns -1 if an invalid index is specified. Note: Objects created using the new operator must be freed using the delete operator; they will not be automatically freed by the class.
T* Set(int index, T* value) {}
|
IPWorksZipStream Type
Syntax
IPWorksZipStream (declared in ipworkszip.h)
Remarks
The Jar class includes one or more API members that take a stream object as a parameter. To use such API members, create a concrete class that implements the IPWorksZipStream interface and pass the Jar class an instance of that concrete class.
When implementing the IPWorksZipStream interface's properties and methods, they must behave as described below. If the concrete class's implementation does not behave as expected, undefined behavior may occur.
Properties | |
CanRead |
Whether the stream supports reading.
bool CanRead() { return true; } |
CanSeek |
Whether the stream supports seeking.
bool CanSeek() { return true; } |
CanWrite |
Whether the stream supports writing.
bool CanWrite() { return true; } |
Length |
Gets the length of the stream, in bytes.
int64 GetLength() = 0; |
Methods | |
Close |
Closes the stream, releasing all resources currently allocated for it.
void Close() {} This method is called automatically when an IPWorksZipStream object is deleted. |
Flush |
Forces all data held by the stream's buffers to be written out to storage.
int Flush() { return 0; } Must return 0 if flushing is successful; or -1 if an error occurs or the stream is closed. If the stream does not support writing, this method must do nothing and return 0. |
Read |
Reads a sequence of bytes from the stream and advances the current position within the stream by the number of bytes read.
int Read(void* buffer, int count) = 0; Buffer specifies the buffer to populate with data from the stream. Count specifies the number of bytes that should be read from the stream. Must return the total number of bytes read into Buffer; this may be less than Count if that many bytes are not currently available, or 0 if the end of the stream has been reached. Must return -1 if an error occurs, if reading is not supported, or if the stream is closed. |
Seek |
Sets the current position within the stream based on a particular point of origin.
int64 Seek(int64 offset, int seekOrigin) = 0; Offset specifies the offset in the stream to seek to, relative to SeekOrigin. Valid values for SeekOrigin are:
Must return the new position within the stream; or -1 if an error occurs, if seeking is not supported, or if the stream is closed (however, see note below). If -1 is returned, the current position within the stream must remain unchanged. Note: If the stream is not closed, it must always be possible to call this method with an Offset of 0 and a SeekOrigin of 1 to obtain the current position within the stream, even if seeking is not otherwise supported. |
Write |
Writes a sequence of bytes to the stream and advances the current position within the stream by the number of bytes written.
int Write(const void* buffer, int count) = 0; Buffer specifies the buffer with data to write to the stream. Count specifies the number of bytes that should be written to the stream. Must return the total number of bytes written to the stream; this may be less than Count if that many bytes could not be written. Must return -1 if an error occurs, if writing is not supported, or if the stream is closed. |
Config Settings (Jar Class)
The class accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.Jar Config Settings
False by default.
For Java, when compressing, attributes other than "H" and "R" will be ignored (due to JRE limitations).
Default: "" (no excluded attributes)
If WriteToProgressEvent is set to false, the data will not be streamed out, and the Data parameter of the Progress event will contain null.
By default, this config is set to false.

This setting only works on these classes: AS3Receiver, AS3Sender, Atom, Client(3DS), FTP, FTPServer, IMAP, OFTPClient, SSHClient, SCP, Server(3DS), Sexec, SFTP, SFTPServer, SSHServer, TCPClient, TCPServer.
Setting this configuration setting to true tells the class to use the internal implementation instead of using the system security libraries.
On Windows, this setting is set to false by default. On Linux/macOS, this setting is set to true by default.
To use the system security libraries for Linux, OpenSSL support must be enabled. For more information on how to enable OpenSSL, please refer to the OpenSSL Notes section.
Trappable Errors (Jar Class)
Error Handling (C++)
Call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain the last called method's result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. Known error codes are listed below. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.
ErrorsThe following errors may be generated by the class. Note that frequently the error message will contain more specific information than what is listed here.
Note that some non-fatal errors may be trapped and explicitly ignored in the Error event. This will allow the class to continue operation even in case of error.
