No, there is nothing native in 'classic' ASP. Third-party it is.

As Jason said, no, there is nothing built in. You can purchase the Winzip
command line add-on (http://www.winzip.com/downcl.htm) for Winzip
(http://www.winzip.com/), "shell out" and execute the commands for the
command line add-on to zip files.

sCommand = "wzzip D:\Inetpub\wwwr oot\test\htmlfi les.zip
D:\Inetpub\wwwr oot\test\*.htm"
Set oShell = CreateObject("W Script.Shell")
oShell.Run sCommand, , True
Set oShell = Nothing
Response.Write "<a href=""htmlfile s.zip"">Downloa d zip file</a>"
%>

Does anyone know if the new Windows 2003 built-in .zip compressor/decompressor is available to scripting? If so, can you kindly point me in the right direction? I've searched and searched MSDN and can't find a damn thing. TIA. Arthur

Hi Does .Net provide libraries for zipping files? I read that a third party component CSharplib is available for doing this. Is there any license restriction for using this? Thanks rjn

Hi folks, I've got a page that outputs XML, but in some cases the size of the page is several MB. So I figured the best way to deal with it is to ZIP the contents of the page and send that to the browser along with the appropriate headers. So my question... Is there a way that I can create a ZIP file containing an XML document based on the value of a string/XmlDocument object? If not, is there a way of temporarily writing out an...

Hi! As I experienced in the year 2006, the Python's zip module is not unicode-safe. With the hungarian filenames I got wrong result. I need to convert iso-8859-2 to cp852 chset to get good result. As I see, this module is "a command line tool" imported as extension. Now I search for something that can handle the characters good, or handle the unicode filenames.

I have an SSIS package that I'm converting from DTS (SQLServer 2005), and the ActiveX Script Task (in VBScript) is deprecated, so I'm trying to convert things to Script tasks (in VB .net). I have a script that is zipping up some files, and it's using an old Winzip, which I don't have on my pc, and certainly wouldn't have on the server, once I got the code over there. So, I wanted to use the built-in zip function for XP. If, in Windows...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
