Rust Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

List Files/Directories in Zip by Index

See more Zip Examples

Demonstrates how to iterate over the files and directories in a zip archive by index. Rust

// This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

let zip = chilkat::Zip::new();

if zip.open_zip("qa_data/zips/sample.zip").is_err() {
    println!("{}", zip.last_error_text());
    return;
}

let num_entries = zip.num_entries();

let entry = chilkat::ZipEntry::new();

let mut i = 0;
while i < num_entries {
    let _ = zip.entry_at(i, &entry);
    // Note: In the ZIP file format, it is not required for a ZIP file to contain explicit directory entries. 
    // However, explicit directory entries can be included for convenience and compatibility with certain ZIP file processing tools and software.
    // An explicit directory entry in a ZIP file is an entry that specifically represents a directory, rather than a file. 
    // It usually has a directory name with a trailing slash (/) and zero-length content.
    if entry.is_directory() {
        println!("{}: {} (directory)", i, entry.file_name());
    } else {
        println!("{}: {}", i, entry.file_name());
    }

    i = i + 1;
}

// Sample output:

// 0: aaa/ (directory)
// 1: aaa/pigs.json
// 2: bbb/ (directory)
// 3: bbb/base64Cert.txt
// 4: bbb/sub1/ (directory)
// 5: bbb/sub1/brasil_cert.pem
// 6: bbb/sub2/ (directory)
// 7: bbb/sub2/penguins.gif
// 8: bbb/sub2/starfish.jpg
// 9: hamlet.xml
// 10: hello.pdf
