Perl Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Transition from Zip.FirstMatchingEntry to Zip.EntryMatching

Provides instructions for replacing deprecated FirstMatchingEntry method calls with EntryMatching. Perl

use chilkat();

$success = 0;

$zip = chilkat::CkZip->new();

#  ...
#  ...
$pattern = "*.txt";

#  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  The FirstMatchingEntry method is deprecated:

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

#  ...
#  ...

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

$ze = chilkat::CkZipEntry->new();
$success = $zip->EntryMatching($pattern,$ze);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $zip->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}
