Iterate Over ZIP Entries Using EntryAt

This example demonstrates how to use the EntryAt method to iterate over all entries contained within a ZIP archive.

The EntryAt method retrieves a ZipEntry object for a given zero-based index.

This is useful for:

• Enumerating all entries in a ZIP archive
• Inspecting filenames, sizes, and timestamps
• Searching or filtering ZIP contents

Suppose the ZIP archive contains:

docs/readme.txt
images/logo.png
data/config.json

The example loops through all ZIP entries and prints information about each entry.

#include <C_CkZipW.h>
#include <C_CkZipEntryW.h>

void ChilkatSample(void)
    {
    BOOL success;
    HCkZipW zip;
    int numEntries;
    HCkZipEntryW entry;
    int i;

    success = FALSE;

    success = FALSE;

    // Open an existing ZIP archive.
    zip = CkZipW_Create();

    success = CkZipW_OpenZip(zip,L"example.zip");
    if (success == FALSE) {
        wprintf(L"%s\n",CkZipW_lastErrorText(zip));
        CkZipW_Dispose(zip);
        return;
    }

    // Get the total number of entries in the ZIP archive.
    numEntries = CkZipW_getNumEntries(zip);

    wprintf(L"Number of ZIP entries = %d\n",numEntries);

    // Create a ZipEntry object that will be reused
    // for each entry retrieved by EntryAt.
    entry = CkZipEntryW_Create();

    // Iterate over all ZIP entries.
    i = 0;
    while (i < numEntries) {

        // Retrieve the entry at index i.
        success = CkZipW_EntryAt(zip,i,entry);
        if (success == FALSE) {
            wprintf(L"%s\n",CkZipW_lastErrorText(zip));
            CkZipW_Dispose(zip);
            CkZipEntryW_Dispose(entry);
            return;
        }

        wprintf(L"Entry %d\n",i);
        wprintf(L"  FileName: %s\n",CkZipEntryW_fileName(entry));
        wprintf(L"  Uncompressed Length: %u\n",CkZipEntryW_getUncompressedLength(entry));
        wprintf(L"  Compressed Length: %u\n",CkZipEntryW_getCompressedLength(entry));
        wprintf(L"\n");

        i = i + 1;
    }

    // Sample output:
    // 
    // Entry 0
    //   FileName: docs/readme.txt
    //   Uncompressed Length: 1204
    //   Compressed Length: 512
    // 
    // Entry 1
    //   FileName: images/logo.png
    //   Uncompressed Length: 84211
    //   Compressed Length: 84102
    // 

    CkZipW_CloseZip(zip);

    wprintf(L"Done.\n");


    CkZipW_Dispose(zip);
    CkZipEntryW_Dispose(entry);
