How to unzip a zip file in xMII

[Former Member]

Hi,

We can create a zip archive of a .htm or .txt file using Create_Zip_Archive action in the transaction.

I want to know, once we have zip archive, can we do the reverse action i.e. unzip of the zip file.

If yes, then what action i need to use in the transaction.

Please response soon.

Thanks well in advance

hi all,

Just to add to Ashish's query is there a possiblity to call and read the Zip file stored in web:// path in a BLS. Understand this would be same as unzipping the file..but by any chance any possibility?

thanks,

Hi,

I don't know what you want to do, but you can "read" the zip-file and send it as an attachment in a mail. Or save it to an other place. But you can't look which file are in it.

Perhaps it is possible to read the bytes with the text or image loader but don't know if this will help you.

Though unzipping the zipped file is common task for users, MII does not support "unzip" any zipped file. Instead you simply can unzip the file with WinRAR/ZIP or whatever used to unzip.

MII only supports to create a ZIP archieve on any file and if required, that zipped file can also be sent thru emails or saved, both are supported by MII.

So forget about unzip functionalities in MII and simply unzip as common one
