use chilkat();

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The FirstEntry method is deprecated:

# entryObj is a ZipEntry
$entryObj = $zip->FirstEntry();
if ($zip->get_LastMethodSuccess() == 0) {
    print $zip->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

# ...

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Do the equivalent using EntryAt.

# Your application creates a new, empty ZipEntry object which is passed 
# in the last argument and filled upon success.

# The 1st entry is at index 0.
