Scripting WinZip


Recommended Posts

I am scripting the unpacking of a long list of files. I have the source *.zip files and their destination folders in an array, where I read them out and send them to a function that automates WinZip32.exe's GUI. The problem is when the zip file is very small, there is almost no indication at all that the extraction was completed. The "Extracting..." window doesn't come up (or flashes to fast to be seen). The green status light flickers for only a fraction of a second... and that's it.

Does anybody know of a good way to determine that the extraction started, and then that it completed, when it goes by so fast?

As a possible alternative, can the native file extraction that was added to XP/2003 and up be called directly by Run(), COM object, or DLL?

:D

Update: A little Googling found a couple of methods in MSDN for a "CIM_LogicalFile" class with "Uncompress" and "UncompressEx" listed, BUT... they both also say "This method is currently not implemented by WMI." So maybe that's no help at all.

:D

Why dont you use the WinXP Com object to extract your zip files rather than automate a gui program?

EDIT:

Func _UnZip( $sZip,$sDest)
    If not StringLen(Chr(0)) Then Return SetError(1)
    If not FileExists($sZip) Then Return SetError(2)
    Local $oShell = ObjCreate('Shell.Application')
    If @error or not IsObj($oShell) Then Return SetError(3)
    Local $oFolder = $oShell.NameSpace($sZip)
;   Local $oDest.$oShell.Namespace(@TempDir)
    If @error or not IsObj($oFolder) Then Return SetError(4)
    Local $oItems = $oFolder.Items()
    If @error or not IsObj($oItems) Then Return SetError(5)
        if Not FileExists($sDest) Then
            if DirCreate($sDest)<> 1 Then Return SetError(7)
        EndIf
    $oDest =$oShell.NameSpace($sDest)
    If @error or not IsObj($oDest ) Then Return SetError(6)
    $oDest.CopyHere($oItems)
EndFunc

EDIT 2: OHHHH how I miss the AutoIt tags already!! I've barely had 1week+ and I feel an emptyness... a void in my life that can only be filled by those sweet, sweet tags.

most I would think would have a command line option to do your extraction also. In that case you would just do a Runwait and it would wait for it to complete and then move on to the next one in the list.

I know WinRAR has cmd line options, not sure on winzip, but I would figure they would.

Oooh... you rock! :P Now I've got two techniques to play with. I dug around in RegEdit and found the Compressed Folder handler. By manually running it on the commandline I can open the .zip file as though it was a folder:

rundll32.exe ziffldr.dll,RouteTheCall "C:\Temp\MySmallZipFile.zip"

I figured this could be done slicker will a DLL call from inside AuotIT, but I like your COM object even better, if I can make it work. I'm working on half a borrowed clue on COM right now, just learning it. So the answer to your first question is... ignorance! :D

I also noticed the failure of the AutoIT tags today, even though the button is still there on the posting form. Bummer, I like that feature. :D

WinZip has chosen to split their commandline support out as a seperate module, downloadable only for lincensed WinZip Pro 10.0 and higher. We have a paid enterprise license for WinZip 9.0 SR1 without the commandline add on. Makes me think bad thoughts about WinZip, and now I want to see how far we can get without them!

I havent used WinZip since I ran into WinRar a few years back. I like it much better... AND it has command line support!

Can't argue with that, but I have to work with what they already have on their servers.

BTW, in your code above, what's the purpose of the first line inside the function?

If not StringLen(Chr(0)) Then Return SetError(1)

What is that checking for?

:D

I knew there was a reason i loved 7-zip soooo much ;)

Rotahn

Big catch with 7-zip (which I did like and use) is that it is NOT free in corporate or government use. That throws it out for me, outside of my personal Windows boxes, and I don't have any personal machines with Windows anymore.

:P

Correction: I went back to download 7-zip to a USB stick for a friends laptop and the 7-zip site says it is lincensed under LGPL! Way cool! :D

From 7-zip.org FAQ page:

Can I use the source code of 7-Zip in a commercial application?

Since 7-Zip is licensed under the GNU LGPL you must follow the rules of that license. In brief, it means that any LGPL'ed code must remain licensed under the LGPL. For instance, you can change the code from 7-Zip or write a wrapper for some code from 7-Zip and compile it into a DLL but the source code of that DLL (including your modifications / additions / wrapper) must be licensed under the LGPL or GPL. Other code of your application can be licensed as you wish. This scheme allows users and developers to change LGPL'ed code and recompile that DLL. That is idea of free software. Read more here: http://www.gnu.org/. You can also read about the LZMA SDK, which is available under a more liberal license.

My appologies to a great project for mis-reporting their lincense status. 7-zip rocks, and rocks freely! :D

Honestly, I'm not sure. The function was taken from that forum I linked. It was just way down in the post so I reposted it here.

Ahh, I found it there in Post #17 by erifash:

It is used to check the version of AutoIt you have. Since it needs to handle character 0 in the for...next loop it needs to be higher than 3.1.1.76 (I think) because that was when binary support was added.

I'm dropping that line, because nothing in any of my scripts works in Prod anyway! :D

Okay, with lots of stuff from Thread #21004 in Scripts And Scraps, I've got my Zip UDF's ready to test, and the first one fails right off the bat (the testing of the others is commented out at this point, one thing at a time). The only function being tested so far is _ZipCreate(), which should just create an empty zip file and return status. It says (by the error code) it is failing to write to the file, but the file is created and looks good. Am I missing something in how I handled error reporting?

Here's the log file result:

2006-06-21 13:14:03 : Starting test.............
2006-06-21 13:14:03 : Return code from _ZipCreate($ZipFile) = 0 and @Error = 2

and here's the code:

; Test native Zip functions with COM objects
#include <file.au3>

; Parameters for test
$ZipFile = @ScriptDir & "\ZipTest.zip"

; Run the test
_FileWriteLog($LogFile, "Starting test.............")

; Create zip file
$RetCode = _ZipCreate($ZipFile)
_FileWriteLog($LogFile, "Return code from _ZipCreate($ZipFile) = " & $RetCode & " and @Error = " & @error)

;----------------------------------
; Function _ZipCreate($sZip)
;   Creates an empty .zip archive file.
;   Where: $sZip is the .zip file to create
;   Returns 1 on success, 0 for fail
;   On fail, @Error is:
;       1 = FileOpen failed
;      2 = FileWrite failed
;----------------------------------
Func _ZipCreate($sZip)
; Create header data
    Local $sHeader = Chr(80) & Chr(75) & Chr(5) & Chr(6)
    For $i = 1 To 18
        $sHeader &= Chr(0)
    Next
; Create empty zip file
    $hFile = FileOpen($sZip, 8 + 2); Mode = Create folder, Overwrite
    If $hFile <> - 1 Then
        If FileWrite($hFile, $sHeader) Then
            FileClose($hFile)
            Return 1
        Else
            Return SetError(2, 0, 0)
        EndIf
    Else
        Return SetError(1, 0, 0)
    EndIf
EndFunc  ;==>_ZipCreate

Worked just fine.

Just of of curiosity. Why use winzip? with 7z you have scripting power at your fingertips :D

From the help file:

7za.exe is a standalone version of 7-Zip. 7za.exe supports only 7z, zip, gzip, bzip2, Z and tar formats. 7za.exe doesn't use other modules.

So:

RunWait('7za.exe x "' $pathNameZipFile & '"')
Should work as long as 7za is in a PATH folder.

I am working an install job where WinZip 9.0 SR1 is installed, and I don't want to install anything extra to the servers. In addition, the license for 7-zip (which is great, a I used it back when I had personal Windows boxes) does not allow Corporate/Government use without enterprise licensing.

(This came up in an earlier post in this thread.)

Hmm... I trimmed all my extraneous stuff when posting, so I had a $LogFile defined (obviously since I got a log result) that I just failed to post. I'm running Beta .118, which is a few revs back. I'll try again with the latest and repost...

Sure enough, it fails in Beta 118, works in Beta 127. The whole thing looks like it works now. I've split it into a test script and the UDF file _ZipFunctions.au3.

Here is the test script (to use the test create a C:\TestDest folder and put some stuff in it to zip):

; Test _ZipFunctions.au3 UDF file
#include <file.au3>
#include <array.au3>
#include <_ZipFunctions.au3>

; Parameters for test
$LogFile = @ScriptDir & "\ZipTestLog.log"
$SrcFile = @ScriptFullPath
$SrcFolder = "C:\ZipTestSrc"
$ZipFile = @ScriptDir & "\ZipTest.zip"
$DestFolder = "C:\ZipTestDest"

; Run the test
_FileWriteLog($LogFile, "Starting test.............")

; Create zip file
$RetCode = _ZipCreate ($ZipFile)
_FileWriteLog($LogFile, "Return code from _ZipCreate($ZipFile) = " & $RetCode & " and @Error = " & @error)

; Add a single file
$RetCode = _ZipAdd ($ZipFile, $SrcFile)
_FileWriteLog($LogFile, "Return code from _ZipAdd($ZipFile, $SrcFile) = " & $RetCode & " and @Error = " & @error)

; Add a folder
$RetCode = _ZipAdd ($ZipFile, $SrcFolder)
_FileWriteLog($LogFile, "Return code from _ZipAdd($ZipFile, $SrcFolder) = " & $RetCode & " and @Error = " & @error)

; List the contents of the zip file
$list = _ZipList ($ZipFile)
_FileWriteLog($LogFile, "List returned from _ZipList($ZipFile) with @Error = " & @error)
_ArrayDisplay($list, "Results for: _ZipList($ZipFile)")

; Unzip to a new location
$RetCode = _UnZip ($ZipFile, $DestFolder)
_FileWriteLog($LogFile, "Return code from _UnZip($ZipFile, $DestFolder) = " & $RetCode & " and @Error = " & @error)

And here is the code for _ZipFunctions.au3:

My test resulted in the following log file output:

2006-06-21 15:29:20 : Starting test.............
2006-06-21 15:29:20 : Return code from _ZipCreate($ZipFile) = 1 and @Error = 0
2006-06-21 15:29:21 : Return code from _ZipAdd($ZipFile, $SrcFile) = 1 and @Error = 0
2006-06-21 15:29:22 : Return code from _ZipAdd($ZipFile, $SrcFolder) = 1 and @Error = 0
2006-06-21 15:29:22 : List returned from _ZipList($ZipFile) with @Error = 0
2006-06-21 15:29:29 : Return code from _UnZip($ZipFile, $DestFolder) = 1 and @Error = 0

:D Thanks for the massive help from everybody! :P

Edit: Changed FileOpen() parameters in _ZipCreate() for binary mode. Thanks to snaxau for pointing out the problem!

I am working an install job where WinZip 9.0 SR1 is installed, and I don't want to install anything extra to the servers. In addition, the license for 7-zip (which is great, a I used it back when I had personal Windows boxes) does not allow Corporate/Government use without enterprise licensing.

(This came up in an earlier post in this thread.)

:D

Ohhh, I searched for 7z in this thread before posting. :"> I was not aware of the enterprise licensing restriction :P I take it you know about info-zip's dll's. It claims to be free to but I have not read the license :D . And I'm not sure it supports the latest compression techniques used by winzip and others (as the ultra level in 7-zip). The zip format is supposed to be a standard but you know...
