An UI tool that can be used to zip and unzip a file.

Introduction

This tool can be used to create a Zip file, view a Zip file, and to unzip a selected Zip file at a user specified location. The creation of a Zip file does support for adding a file, creating a folder within the Zip, and deleting an existing file and folder.

Background

For this tool, I have used the System.IO.Packaging.Package namespace of the .NET Framework 3.5. Also, I have used Extension Methods to extend the features of the NodesCollection class. If you are not aware of this, please refer to MSDN.

Using the code

To use this tool, you need to have the .NET Framework 3.5 installed on your machine. If you are planning to view the code, then you need to have Visual Studio 2008. This tool is very simple to use. It has a root node by default, and it cannot be deleted. If the user wants to create a Zip file, the first step is to clear the tree view control. This is done by using the “Clear” push button provided on the left of the screen. The second step is to add files / folders. This functionality is provided by using a context menu of the tree view node. Once the user prepares the virtual Zip file, use the “Zip” push button to select a physical folder and file for creating the physical zip file. To view the Zip file, the user can click on the “View” push button on the left. This will prompt for a file dialog window to select the Zip file. Once the user selects the Zip file, a virtual structure of the complete Zip file will be represented in tree format. Please note, currently, this tool does not support modifying an existing Zip file. The design of this tool does support to integrate this functionality. To unzip a Zip file, click on the “Unzip” push button. This will allow you to select a Zip file and the location where the files need to be unzipped.

Note: This tool can be extended for advance functionality. But, currently, this tool is developed to know the code-behind process used for Microsoft Office 2007 Document creation and updating.

For this prototype version of code using the System.IO.Packaging.Package namespace, processing of each push button is written within the code-behind of UI form. The best approach would be to have a separate service class that supports these functionality.

Points of Interest

There are a couple of things to know:

  • Creating a Zip file using Packaging.ZipPackage will create a “[Content_Types].xml” file. This defines the content of the zip file and the mapping for the file extension.
  • A file that we add within the Zip file cannot have space within its name. Currently, this tool replaces any space with an underscore (“_”) character.

Thanks fr the article. I was tring to implement the code but GetParts is returning nothing.
But _zipArchive seems to show correct set of files.

Please help.
