Demonstrates the Zip AppendNew function. Swift

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

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

    let zip = CkoZip()!

    var zipPath: String? = "c:/temp/qa_output/test.zip"

    // Initialize the zip object, which also sets the FileName property to the path of the zip to be created.
    zip.newZip(zipPath: zipPath)

    // Append a new and empty file to the zip object.
    // This does not write the zip file.  It simply adds an entry
    // that will get processed when the zip is written.
    zip.addEmpty(isDir: false, pathInZip: "empty.txt")

    // Append another entry..
    var pathInZip: String? = "abc/helloWorld.txt"
    zip.addEmpty(isDir: false, pathInZip: pathInZip)

    // Add some data to this entry..
    let entry = CkoZipEntry()!
    zip.entry(of: pathInZip, entry: entry)
    entry.appendString(inStr: "Hello World", charset: "utf-8")

    // Write the zip, which contains 2 files:  empty.txt and helloWorld.txt
    zip.fileName = zipPath
    success = zip.writeAndClose()
    if success == false {
        print("\(zip.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    print("Success.")
