zip-unzip

[Maverich]

I'm trying to work with zipfile() and unzipfile(), testing testzip.prg in the samples folder. I get a link error for the two unknown functions. Looking at functions help of FWH, it seems the two functions were integrated in FWH libs.
I'm using Xharbour, where is the problem?

Riccardo,

Those functions are not available in FWH. You may use the free hbzip.lib for Harbour/xHarbour.

Ok Antonio. Why are they in FWH 2.6 docs?
anyway, where could I find hbzip.lib?

Those functions are in FW 2.6 because they only work on 16 bits, both, 32 & 16 bits FiveWin use the most of the functions, not all of them so they share the same documentatio.

FW 16 bits zip system is based on a free DLL set inclued with fivewin, (see DLL folder, infounz.dll and wizzip.dll) and those DLLs can only be used under 16 bits FiveWin.

If you are workin with (x)HB, you have to use the hbzip.lib inclued in the contributions of the project, for xHB you can donwload the lib from www.xharbour.org, section DOWNLOADS/CONTRIBS
