Description

Trusted

The most advanced and reliable Xamarin compression library on the market. Based on Xceed Zip for .NET that is used by Microsoft, Apple, Adobe, IBM and many Fortune 500 companies in their applications.
Solid as a rock, and updated often. Xceed’s 20 years of experience with data compression products for software developers gives Xceed Zip for Xamarin an unmatched pedigree.

It is the most stable data manipulation library for Xamarin, so you can create robust applications that execute error-free with any kind of input data. Microsoft trusts it enough to use it in various products, including server operating systems.

Multi-Talented

Offers an industry-defining feature set. Supports the latest zip file standards, including WinZip 12 and up. No other zip library is as up-to-date. Provides every feature you will need to accomplish your goals efficiently. If you have advanced needs, it also supports recent technologies like AES encryption, LZMA, PPMd and BZip 2 compression methods, and provides Gzip and Tar support, too.

File management integration

It also provides built-in file transfer (FTP and secure FTP), file and folder synchronization, and filesystem capabilities, through an integrated interface that is simple yet powerful.

Perform complex operations with only a few lines of code. Need to update the contents of a zip file located on a remote FTP server? Stream directly to or from a file inside a zip file? Synchronize the contents of any number of folders and files? This library lets you easily do it with small amounts of elegant code. For “on-the-fly” Zip read/write in scenarios where intermediate disk/memory storage is a major concern or simply not possible, check out Xceed Real-Time Zip pour Xamarin.

Features :

  • Written in 100% managed C# code and built and tested for Xamarin, with .NET frameworks 2.0/3.5, 4.0 and up.

  • 100% managed code, written in C#.

  • Source code included with the Blueprint subscription.

  • Seamless integration with the .NET base class libraries, with error handling exclusively through .NET exception classes.

  • Objects don’t need to be explicitly disposed of.

  • CLS compliant (Common Language Specification) with no unsafe blocks, for minimal permission requirements.

  • Works with .NET Isolated Storage for temporary files as needed.

  • The only library to provide WinZip 12 compatibility, supporting the LZMA algorithm for improved compression in certain situations. Note: Zip files using WinZip 12’s special JPEG recompression feature are not supported.

  • Beefed up capabilities for handling large amounts of files.

  • UTF-8 character encoding in headers for improved support of special characters and international characters in filenames and comments.

  • Create new zip files or update existing zip files on disk, in memory, or on an FTP site.

  • Support for the Zip64 zip file format, eliminating the 4GB barrier and 16384 file limit.

  • Zip or unzip to and from disks, FTP sites, memory or isolated storage. When unzipping one or more files from a Zip file located on an FTP site, Xceed Zip for .NET will download only the necessary portions of the Zip file required in order to unzip the files, for greatly improved speed and minimal bandwidth use.

  • Read, write, and update zip files split into multiple parts.

  • Read, write, and update zip files that span multiple disks.

  • Supports the Deflate64™ compression method, for improved compression.

  • Supports the BZip2 and BWT compression methods for improved compression when speed is less crucial.

  • Supports the PPMd compression method, for producing the most compressed output possible, especially with text and XML files.

  • Easy-to-use, rock-solid security through industry-standard AES encryption, compatible with WinZip 9 and higher, with encryption strengths of 128, 192, and 256 bits. Developers can choose the AES encryption algorithm used by the component.

  • List contents of a zip file with complete file specifications. If the Zip file is located on an FTP site, Xceed Zip for .NET will download only the central directory portion of the remote Zip file, for greatly improved speed and minimal bandwidth use.

  • Compress or decompress any .NET stream.

  • Compress and decompress byte arrays completely in memory.

  • Copy, move, rename, delete files and folders in a zip file, on disk, in memory, on an FTP site, in Zip files on an FTP site, or in isolated storage.

  • Change attributes of files and folders on disk.

  • Copy, move, rename, delete and change attributes of files and folders on disk, in a Zip file, on an FTP site, etc.

  • Zip password encryption (standard Zip password encryption, or 128 to 256-bit AES encryption).

  • One-line shortcut classes for basic zip file and compression operations.

  • Fully extensible classes so you can customize the library’s functionality as needed.

  • Information-rich status report events with percentages, byte and file counts.

  • Programmable filter system to limit processing to specific files or folders, with built-in filters for file attribute, size, date, timestamp and filenames. Create your own custom filters as needed.

  • HTTP proxy server and both FileSystem-based and FtpClient-based SSL support.

  • Efficiently creates zip files by allowing developers to decide whether folder entries should be written to the archive, which reduces its size.

  • Can create archives using the Deflate format without compression, for full compatibily with Xceed Real-Time Zip and generally improved flexibility.

  • Need “on-the-fly” Zip file read/write capabilities for use with high-demand servers or Web sites, etc., where intermediate disk/memory storage is a major concern or simply not possible? Check out Xceed Real-Time Zip for .NET!

  • Built-in file transfer and filesystem capabilities. Because it’s built on top of the Xceed Filesystem Core, a variety of additional file and folder manipulation capabilities are available, as is the complete functionality of Xceed FTP for .NET without any additional learning curve or effort.

  • Abstracts the concept of files and folders in Zip files, on FTP sites, in streams, in memory, etc., so that your code is written as if it is working with regular files or folders. When support is added for more archive types and locations, there is no need to change your code in order to work with the new archive types or locations.

  • Optimizes operations so that you can perform feats such as speedily accessing files located in a Zip archive on a remote FTP server, while using astonishingly low bandwidth. No other .NET component or combination of components can accomplish this.

  • Can perform date/time-based synchronization on any number of AbstractFile or AbstractFolder objects. Multiple events allow analysis and precise control over the operations.

  • Tar and GZip for maximum compatibility between your applications and the data they need to work with.

  • Can extract from archives made up of consecutive inner GZip streams.

  • Handle Tar and GZip files as easily as if they were regular files and folder, thanks to the Xceed FileSystem Core.

  • Full read/write compatibility with USTAR format Tar archives.

  • Read compatibility with GNU Tar archives whose entries do not use the header extensions of this format.

  • Create new self-extracting zip files or transform already existing zip files into self-extracting zip files.

  • Self-extracting zip files can span multiple disks.

  • Update and reconfigure an existing self-extracting zip file.

  • Create self-extracting Zip files for the traditional PKZIP 2.04g compression method. Also supports the Deflate64™, BZip2, and BWT methods.

  • Create self-extracting zip files that support AES encryption.

  • Use extra headers such as Unicode filenames, extended filestamps, and security descriptors.

  • Create program groups and insert items into program groups.

  • Associate filename extensions with applications.

  • Allows 3rd-party install or setup programs (and their data files) to be unzipped into a temporary folder, executed, and then deleted upon completion.
