Another example about getting the correct paths within a .zip. AutoIt

Local $bSuccess = False

; This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
; See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

$oZip = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Zip")

; Intialize the zip object by calling NewZip.
$bSuccess = $oZip.NewZip("myZip.zip")

; Add references to files:
Local $bRecurse = True
$bSuccess = $oZip.AppendFiles("c:\temp\a\subdir1\*",$bRecurse)

; Assuming that the file c:\temp\a\subdir1\dude.gif exists,
; the .zip will contain "dude.gif" without any path information.

; The component has no
; choice but to use "c:\\temp\\a\\subdir1" as the root.
; It's not possible for the component to know if you
; wanted subdir1\ or a\subdir1\ or temp\a\subdir1
; paths prefixed for each file added.

; To control the path within the zip, set the AppendFromDir
; directory and then use a relative path in AppendFiles.
; For example:
$oZip.AppendFromDir = "c:\temp\a"

$bSuccess = $oZip.AppendFiles("subdir1\*",$bRecurse)

; This causes c:\temp\a\subdir1\dude.gif to be added as
; "subdir1\dude.gif" within the .zip.

; If you need the path within the .zip to be "a\subdir", then
; do this:
$oZip.AppendFromDir = "c:\temp"
$bSuccess = $oZip.AppendFiles("a\subdir1\*",$bRecurse)

$bSuccess = $oZip.WriteZipAndClose()
