I have used 7zip until j602 (which includes Info-ZIPs unzip as part of
the installation). I was integrating it into some of my routines and
have had some problems with differences in functionality between 7zip &
unzip. Specifically it seems that unzip can't/doesn't create a deep
non-existing path to unzip a zip file into.
So if the directory c:\test exists and is empty and I want to unzip a
zip file into the directory c:\test\subdir1\subdir2
unzip -o -C myzip.zip -d c:\test\subdir1\subdir2
doesn't work ("cannot create extraction directory"), but the following
does.
unzip -o -C myzip.zip -d c:\test\subdir1
Can anyone confirm this? Is there a switch(s) that will enable this
behavior?
The alternative is obviously to ensure the path exists before I call
unzip.
