  • Zip and Unzip files programmatically

    Recently one of the reader of DotNetBips.com posted a question on the discussion forums about compressing and decompressing files via code. There is no obvious answer to this question because C# and VB.NET lack this functionality. However, J# does have a way to zip and unzip files programmatically. In this article I am going to explain how this can be achieved. In this article you will develop a reusable class library that can be used to create, extract and alter ZIP files. Once developed you can use it in your Windows or web applications.
