Swift Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Transition from Zip.AppendString to Zip.AddString

Provides instructions for replacing deprecated AppendString method calls with AddString. Swift

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

    let zip = CkoZip()!

    //  ...
    //  ...
    var pathInZip: String? = "example.txt"
    var textData: String? = "This is a test"

    //  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    //  The AppendString method is deprecated:

    var entryObj: CkoZipEntry? = zip.appendString(pathInZip: pathInZip, str: textData)
    if zip.lastMethodSuccess == false {
        print("\(zip.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    //  ...
    //  ...

    entryObj = nil

    //  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    //  Do the equivalent using AddString.

    //  Instead of returning the zip entry object, we just return success/failure.
    success = zip.addString(pathInZip: pathInZip, content: textData, charset: "utf-8")
    if success == false {
        print("\(zip.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    //  Do the following if you need the zip entry object for what was just appended.
    //  The newly appended entry is the last one.
    let ze = CkoZipEntry()!
    var index: Int = zip.numEntries.intValue - 1
    zip.entry(at: index, entry: ze)
