DotNetZip supports these scenarios:
- a Silverlight app that dynamically creates zip files.
- an ASP.NET app that dynamically creates ZIP files and allows a browser to
download them
- a Windows Service that periodically zips up a directory for backup andarchival purposes
- a WPF program that modifies existing archives - renaming entries, removing
entries from an archive, or adding new entries to an archive
- a Windows Forms app
that creates AES-encrypted zip archives for privacy of archived content.
- a SSIS script that unzips or zips
- An administrative script in PowerShell or VBScript that performs backup and
archival.
- a WCF service that receives a zip file as an attachment, and dynamically
unpacks the zip to a stream for analysis
- an old-school ASP (VBScript) application that produces a ZIP file via the COM
interface for DotNetZIp
- a Windows Forms app that reads or updates ODS files
- creating zip files from stream content, saving to a stream, extracting to a
stream, reading from a stream
- creation of self-extracting archives.
If all you want is a better DeflateStream or GZipStream class to replace the
one that is built-into the .NET BCL, DotNetZip has that, too. DotNetZip's
DeflateStream and GZipStream are available in a standalone assembly, based on a
.NET port of Zlib. These streams support compression levels and deliver much
better performance than the built-in classes. There is also a ZlibStream to
complete the set (RFC 1950, 1951, 1952).
And the price for all this: totally FREE.
