VB.NET Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Transition from Zip.FirstMatchingEntry to Zip.EntryMatching

Provides instructions for replacing deprecated FirstMatchingEntry method calls with EntryMatching. VB.NET

Dim success As Boolean = False

Dim zip As New Chilkat.Zip

'  ...
'  ...
Dim pattern As String = "*.txt"

'  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
'  The FirstMatchingEntry method is deprecated:

Dim entryObj As Chilkat.ZipEntry = zip.FirstMatchingEntry(pattern)
If (zip.LastMethodSuccess = False) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(zip.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If


'  ...
'  ...



'  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
'  Do the equivalent using EntryMatching.
'  Your application creates a new, empty ZipEntry object which is passed 
'  in the last argument and filled upon success.

Dim ze As New Chilkat.ZipEntry
success = zip.EntryMatching(pattern,ze)
If (success = False) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(zip.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If
