Ruby Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Transition from Zip.AppendString2 to Zip.AddString

Provides instructions for replacing deprecated AppendString2 method calls with AddString. Ruby

require 'chilkat'

success = false

zip = Chilkat::CkZip.new()

#  ...
#  ...
pathInZip = "example.txt"
textData = "This is a test"
charset = "utf-8"

#  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  The AppendString method is deprecated:

# entryObj is a CkZipEntry
entryObj = zip.AppendString2(pathInZip,textData,charset)
if (zip.get_LastMethodSuccess() == false)
    print zip.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

#  ...
#  ...

#  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  Do the equivalent using AddString.

#  Instead of returning the zip entry object, we just return success/failure.
success = zip.AddString(pathInZip,textData,charset)
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)
