Demonstrates how to rename a file within a .zip prior to writing it.

Chilkat.Zip zip = new Chilkat.Zip();

bool success;

//  Any string unlocks the component for the 1st 30-days.
success = zip.UnlockComponent("Anything for 30-day trial");
if (success != true) {
    MessageBox.Show(zip.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

success = zip.NewZip("test.zip");
if (success != true) {
    MessageBox.Show(zip.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

//  Append a directory tree.  The AppendFiles does
//  not read the file contents or append them to the zip
//  object in memory.  It simply appends references
//  to the files so that when WriteZip (or WriteZipAndClose,
//  or WriteExe, etc.) is called, the files are compressed
//  and encrypted.
bool recurse;
recurse = true;
zip.AppendFiles("c:/temp/a/*",recurse);

Chilkat.ZipEntry entry = null;

entry = zip.GetEntryByName("Setup.exe");
if (entry == null ) {
    MessageBox.Show("Failed to find entry in .zip");
    return;
}

//  Change the filename of this entry.
//  When the .zip is written, the "Setup.exe" is streamed
//  in from the filesystem and compressed into the .zip,
//  and named as "install.exe"
entry.FileName = "install.exe";

success = zip.WriteZipAndClose();
if (success != true) {
    MessageBox.Show(zip.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

MessageBox.Show("Zip Created!");
