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.

Unicode C++

#include <CkZipW.h>
#include <CkZipEntryW.h>

void ChilkatSample(void)
    {
    bool success = false;

    //  Open an existing ZIP archive.
    CkZipW zip;

    success = zip.OpenZip(L"example.zip");
    if (success == false) {
        wprintf(L"%s\n",zip.lastErrorText());
        return;
    }

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

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

    //  Create a ZipEntry object that will be reused
    //  for each entry retrieved by EntryAt.
    CkZipEntryW entry;

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

        //  Retrieve the entry at index i.
        success = zip.EntryAt(i,entry);
        if (success == false) {
            wprintf(L"%s\n",zip.lastErrorText());
            return;
        }

        wprintf(L"Entry %d\n",i);
        wprintf(L"  FileName: %s\n",entry.fileName());
        wprintf(L"  Uncompressed Length: %u\n",entry.get_UncompressedLength());
        wprintf(L"  Compressed Length: %u\n",entry.get_CompressedLength());
        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
    //  

    zip.CloseZip();

    wprintf(L"Done.\n");
    }
