ZipEntry PHP Extension Reference Documentation

CkZipEntry

Current Version: 11.0.0

Represents a single file or directory entry within a Chilkat Zip object. A zip entry can be one of 5 types (see the description of the EntryType property below).

Object Creation

$obj = new CkZipEntry();

Properties

Comment
string comment();
void put_Comment(string strVal);

The comment stored within the Zip for this entry.

top
CompressedLength
(read-only)
int get_CompressedLength()

The size in bytes of this entry's file data when compression is applied

top
CompressedLength64
(read-only)
int64 get_CompressedLength64()

The size in bytes of this entry's file data when compression is applied

top
CompressedLengthStr
(read-only)
string compressedLengthStr();

The size in decimal string format of this file when Zip compression is applied.

top
CompressionLevel
int get_CompressionLevel()
void put_CompressionLevel(int intVal);

The compression level. 0 = no compression, while 9 = maximum compression. The default is 6.

top
CompressionMethod
int get_CompressionMethod()
void put_CompressionMethod(int intVal);

Set to 0 for no compression, or 8 for the Deflate algorithm. The Deflate algorithm is the default algorithm of the most popular Zip utility programs, such as WinZip

top
Crc
(read-only)
int get_Crc()

The CRC for the zip entry. For AES encrypted entries, the CRC value will be 0. (See http://www.winzip.com/aes_info.htm#CRC )

top
DebugLogFilePath
string debugLogFilePath();
void put_DebugLogFilePath(string strVal);

If set to a file path, this property logs the LastErrorText of each Chilkat method or property call to the specified file. This logging helps identify the context and history of Chilkat calls leading up to any crash or hang, aiding in debugging.

Enabling the VerboseLogging property provides more detailed information. This property is mainly used for debugging rare instances where a Chilkat method call causes a hang or crash, which should generally not happen.

Possible causes of hangs include:

  • A timeout property set to 0, indicating an infinite timeout.
  • A hang occurring within an event callback in the application code.
  • An internal bug in the Chilkat code causing the hang.

More Information and Examples
top
EncryptionKeyLen
(read-only)
int get_EncryptionKeyLen()
Introduced in version 9.5.0.69

If this entry is AES encrypted, then this property contains the AES key length (128, 192, or 256). If the entry is not AES encrypted, then the value is 0.

top
EntryID
(read-only)
int get_EntryID()

A unique ID assigned to the entry while the object is instantiated in memory.

top
EntryType
(read-only)
int get_EntryType()

Indicates the origin of the entry. There are three possible values:

  1. Mapped Entry: An entry in an existing Zip file.
  2. File Entry: A file not yet in memory, but referenced. These entries are added by calling AppendFiles, AppendFilesEx, AppendOneFileOrDir, etc.
  3. Data Entry: An entry containing uncompressed data from memory. These entries are added by calling AppendData, AppendString, etc.
  4. Null Entry: An entry that no longer exists in the .zip.
  5. New Directory Entry: A directory entry added by calling AppendNewDir.
When the zip is written by calling WriteZip or WriteToMemory, all of the zip entries are transformed into mapped entries. They become entries that contain the compressed data within the .zip that was just created. (The WriteZip method call effectively writes the zip and then opens it, replacing all of the existing entries with mapped entries.)

More Information and Examples
top
FileDateTimeStr
string fileDateTimeStr();
void put_FileDateTimeStr(string strVal);

The local last-modified date/time in RFC822 string format.

top
FileName
string fileName();
void put_FileName(string strVal);

The file name of the Zip entry.

top
FileNameHex
(read-only)
string fileNameHex();

A string containing the hex encoded raw filename bytes found in the Zip entry.

top
IsAesEncrypted
(read-only)
bool get_IsAesEncrypted()
Introduced in version 9.5.0.69

true if the entry is AES encrypted. This property can only be true for entries already contained in a .zip (i.e. entries obtained from a zip archive that was opened via OpenZip, OpenBd, OpenFromMemory, etc.) The property is false if the entry contained in the zip is not AES encrypted.

top
IsDirectory
(read-only)
bool get_IsDirectory()

True if the Zip entry is a directory, false if it is a file.

top
LastErrorHtml
(read-only)
string lastErrorHtml();

Provides HTML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

top
LastErrorText
(read-only)
string lastErrorText();

Provides plain text information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

top
LastErrorXml
(read-only)
string lastErrorXml();

Provides XML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

top
LastMethodSuccess
bool get_LastMethodSuccess()
void put_LastMethodSuccess(bool boolVal);

Indicates the success or failure of the most recent method call: true means success, false means failure. This property remains unchanged by property setters or getters. This method is present to address challenges in checking for null or Nothing returns in certain programming languages.

top
TextFlag
bool get_TextFlag()
void put_TextFlag(bool boolVal);

Controls whether the "text flag" of the internal file attributes for this entry within the zip is set. This is a bit flag that indicates whether the file contents are text or binary. It is for informational use and it is not imperative that this bit flag is accurately set. The ability to set this bit flag is only provided to satisfy certain cases where another application might be sensitive to the flag.

top
UncompressedLength
(read-only)
int get_UncompressedLength()

The size in bytes of this entry's file data when uncompressed.

top
UncompressedLength64
(read-only)
int64 get_UncompressedLength64()

The size in bytes of this entry's file data when uncompressed.

top
UncompressedLengthStr
(read-only)
string uncompressedLengthStr();

The size in bytes (in decimal string format) of this zip entry's data when uncompressed.

top
VerboseLogging
bool get_VerboseLogging()
void put_VerboseLogging(bool boolVal);

If set to true, then the contents of LastErrorText (or LastErrorXml, or LastErrorHtml) may contain more verbose information. The default value is false. Verbose logging should only be used for debugging. The potentially large quantity of logged information may adversely affect peformance.

top
Version
(read-only)
string version();

Version of the component/library, such as "10.1.0"
