LOCAL loZip
LOCAL lcLocalFilePath
LOCAL lnSaveExtraPath
LOCAL loEntryObj
LOCAL lnSuccess

* For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.Zip')
loZip = CreateObject('Chilkat.Zip')

* ...
* ...
lcLocalFilePath = "c:/someDir/example.dat"
lnSaveExtraPath = 0

* ------------------------------------------------------------------------
* The AppendOneFileOrDir method is deprecated:

loEntryObj = loZip.AppendOneFileOrDir(lcLocalFilePath,lnSaveExtraPath)
IF (loZip.LastMethodSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loZip.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loZip
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* ...
* ...

RELEASE loEntryObj

* ------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Do the equivalent using AddFile.

* Instead of returning the zip entry object, we just return success/failure.
lnSuccess = loZip.AddFile(lcLocalFilePath,lnSaveExtraPath)
IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loZip.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loZip
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* Do the following if you need the zip entry object for what was just appended.
* The newly appended entry is the last one.
* For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.ZipEntry')
loZe = CreateObject('Chilkat.ZipEntry')
lnIndex = loZip.NumEntries - 1
loZip.EntryAt(lnIndex,loZe)
