Transition from Zip.GetEntryByID to Zip.EntryById

Provides instructions for replacing deprecated GetEntryByID method calls with EntryById. VB.NET

Dim success As Boolean = False

Dim zip As New Chilkat.Zip

' ...
' ...
Dim id As Integer = 123

' ------------------------------------------------------------------------
' The GetEntryByID method is deprecated:

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


' ...
' ...



' ------------------------------------------------------------------------
' Do the equivalent using EntryById.
' 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.EntryById(id,ze)
If (success = False) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(zip.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If
