using 4D v16, Mac:
I can successfully Zip a folder using the Zip plugin.
However ...
I'm building docx files, which consist of a zipped folder of xml files. I
need to create the Zip archive by adding just the actual files without
their enclosing folder. I believe the ZIP_Without_enclosing_folder option
in the Zip function should do the trick, but it doesn't seem to work.
Sample code:
$folder:=*Select folder*("Folder to zip:")
$dst2:=*GetDataExportsFolder* +Folder separator+"wordtest.docx"
*ZIP_CALLBACK_INIT*
$dst:=*GetDataExportsFolder* +Folder separator+"wordtest.zip"
$success:=*Zip* ($folder;$dst;"";ZIP_Without_enclosing_folder"ZIP_CALLBACK")
// contents must be added individually to the zip archive
*ZIP_CALLBACK_DEINIT*
*If* (*Test path name*($dst2)=Is a document)
*DELETE DOCUMENT*($dst2)
*End if*
*COPY DOCUMENT*($dst;$dst2)
This appears to work, but if I unzip wordtest.zip, it creates a folder
named the same as the original folder ($folder), indicating that it HAS
included the enclosing folder.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!
Pat
