Eugene Sichkar, a software developer, has published a project containing a .NET/C# interface to the 7-Zip archiving application on Code Project. 7-Zip is an open source application used to archive/un-archive files in various formats.
7-Zip is an open source archiving application supporting the following formats according to 7-Zip's web site:
7-Zip currently runs on all desktop versions of Windows starting with Windows 98 to Vista. There is an effort going on to port it to Linux/Unix. 7-Zip is free and licensed under GNU LGPL license, and the UnRAR module is licensed with some restrictions.
Eugene Sichkar, a software developer, has created a C# interface to the 7-Zip DLLs included in the 7-Zip application, allowing anyone to use the 7-Zip compressing/decompressing capabilities from within a .NET application. The following interfaces are implemented according to Eugene:
IProgress - basic progress callback IArchiveOpenCallback - archive open callback ICryptoGetTextPassword - callback for prompt password for archive IArchiveExtractCallback - extract files from archive callback IArchiveOpenVolumeCallback - open additional archive volumes callback ISequentialInStream - simple read-only stream interface ISequentialOutStream - simple write-only stream interface IInStream - input stream interface with seek capability IOutStream - output stream interface IInArchive - main archive interface Using the .NET interface one accesses the 7-Zip functionality (7z.dll) directly not via a console line, or a console line wrapper. The interface is released under the The Common Development and Distribution License (CDDL). Downloading the C# source code requires registration with Code Project.
