Ruby Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Transition from Zip.AppendOneFileOrDir to Zip.AddFile

Provides instructions for replacing deprecated AppendOneFileOrDir method calls with AddFile. Ruby

require 'chilkat'

success = false

zip = Chilkat::CkZip.new()

#  ...
#  ...
localFilePath = "c:/someDir/example.dat"
saveExtraPath = false

#  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  The AppendOneFileOrDir method is deprecated:

# entryObj is a CkZipEntry
entryObj = zip.AppendOneFileOrDir(localFilePath,saveExtraPath)
if (zip.get_LastMethodSuccess() == false)
    print zip.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

#  ...
#  ...

#  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  Do the equivalent using AddFile.

#  Instead of returning the zip entry object, we just return success/failure.
success = zip.AddFile(localFilePath,saveExtraPath)
if (success == false)
    print zip.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

#  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::CkZipEntry.new()
index = zip.get_NumEntries() - 1
zip.EntryAt(index,ze)
