# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The GetEntryByName method is deprecated:

$entryObj = $zip.GetEntryByName($pathInZip)
if ($zip.LastMethodSuccess -eq $false) {
    $($zip.LastErrorText)
    exit
}

# ...

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