note

This article is about the pc:ZipFileCreateFromDir Blend directive.

pc:ZipFileCreateFromDir

Compresses the content of a directory into a ZIP file.

There is no result value.

Syntax

<pc:ZipFileCreateFromDir
dirpath="*folder-path*"
filepath="*file-path*"
overwrite="*overwrite*" />

*overwrite* ::= { yes | no }

The required dirpath is a path leading to the directory to be zipped. The required filepath is a path that determines the location and name of the output file (the ZIP file).

If you set overwrite="yes", any existing ZIP file with the same name will be silently overwritten. Otherwise, the operation is cancelled and an error message is returned saying that the file already exists.

Example

<pc:ZipFileCreateFromDir
dirpath="c:\temp\zip\mynewzip\mydir"
filepath="c:\temp\zip\mynewzip.zip"
/>
