Go Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Transition from Zip.AppendNewDir to Zip.AddEmpty

Provides instructions for replacing deprecated AppendNewDir method calls with AddEmpty. Go

    success := false

    zip := chilkat.NewZip()

    //  ...
    //  ...
    pathInZip := "exampleDir"

    //  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    //  The AppendNewDir method is deprecated:

    entryObj := zip.AppendNewDir(pathInZip)
    if zip.LastMethodSuccess() == false {
        fmt.Println(zip.LastErrorText())
        zip.DisposeZip()
        return
    }

    //  ...
    //  ...

    entryObj.DisposeZipEntry()

    //  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    //  Do the equivalent using AddEmpty.

    //  Indicate the newly appended entry is a directory entry.
    isDir := true

    //  Instead of returning the zip entry object, we just return success/failure.
    success = zip.AddEmpty(isDir,pathInZip)
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(zip.LastErrorText())
        zip.DisposeZip()
        return
    }

    //  Do the following if you need the zip entry object for what was just appended.
    //  The newly appended entry is the last one.
    ze := chilkat.NewZipEntry()
    index := zip.NumEntries() - 1
    zip.EntryAt(index,ze)

    zip.DisposeZip()
    ze.DisposeZipEntry()
