Is it possible, that there is no extension available for VDS to work with ZIP files? Couldn't find anything in download area...
Thanks and regards

The VDSDLL3 contains ZIP support. You might also look in the
"Advanced VDS 5 Source Code" forum (toward the bottom of the index)
where I posted support for ZLib, a standard ZIP compression/decompression
library, which I interfaced for VDS.
I'll be making a DSU for ZLib as soon as I can as this may offer some
good support and a DSU will make it easy to use.  _________________ FreezingFire

VDSZip.dll is a very nice extension. I have used it many times.
[note by moderator - the vdszip.dll is not listed/endorsed by vdsworld
anymore as this extension was authored by an infamous vds pirate; we
strongly recommend using this at your own risk as the extension could
contain malicious code.]
I have not had any problems with this dll, but, as many have said use caution when downloading anything from the net. _________________ Chris

Another note on the vdszip.dll...
The author of the dll is suspected of being someone who has stolen
credit card numbers before and made cracks and key gens for VDS
itself. Unfortunately, I don't believe it can be verified if he is the
person, but those involved say all information points to the author
of this dll.
The vdszip.dll itself has been checked by many here and to date, no
malicious code has been found in the dll itself.
But! Like anything you download online, use caution.
Personally, I was involved in the testing of the dll and have been
using it since it's initial development. I have had no issues or
problems with the dll. No missing files, no un-called for connections
to the internet or suspicious activity related to the dll.

Please do realize that ZIP support of the VDSDLL 3 is limited to unzipping, zipping up files
is not supported. |
