Add Binary Data to a ZIP Using AddBd

See more Zip Examples

This example demonstrates how to use the AddBd method to add binary data from a BinData object as a file entry within a ZIP archive.

The data is created entirely in memory, added to the ZIP as data/binary.dat, and then written to disk.

; Create a BinData object containing binary content.
$oBd = ObjCreate("Chilkat.BinData")

; Append some bytes as hexadecimal.
; The decoded bytes will become the contents of the ZIP entry.

; Add the BinData contents as a file entry within the ZIP.
; The file will be stored as "data/binary.dat" inside the ZIP archive.

If ($bSuccess = False) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oZip.LastErrorText & @CRLF)

; Write the ZIP archive to disk and close it.
