Read from a zip file

Hi,

I want to be able to read from a zip file directly.
On doing some research I found something called QuaZIP @ http://quazip.sourceforge.net/

Is there something directly provided by Qt. Or any guidance on how can it be done ??

Raj

Hi Raj!

I ended up using quazip as well. I just looked it up in my old code - direct reading works like this:

Code:

---

QString zipName = QFileDialog::getOpenFileName(this, "Convis DB Import", "", "Zip-File (*.zip)");
QuaZip zip(zipName);
if(!zip.open(QuaZip::mdUnzip)) 
{Maintenance_PTE->appendPlainText(QString("Import: zip open error: %1").arg(zip.getZipError()));return;}
if (!zip.setCurrentFile("entries.txt")) 
{Maintenance_PTE->appendPlainText(QString("Zip entries.txt error: %1").arg(zip.getZipError()));return;}
QuaZipFile inFile(&zip);
if (!inFile.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly)) {Maintenance_PTE->appendPlainText(QString("Import entries error: %1").arg(inFile.getZipError()));return;}
{
   QTextStream ts(&inFile);
...
   inFile.close();
}
zip.close();
