Zip-Ada

What is Zip-Ada ? Zip-Ada is a programming library for dealing with the Zip compressed archive file format. The full sources of Zip-Ada are in Ada, compilable on every compiler and for every system. For more Details, read the files zipada.txt and zip.ads from the archive below. Why not call an zip or unzip executable, or use the zlib library ? iNdependence: with this library you can zip and unzip data without any OS-dependent external call;furthermore, you can use Zip-Ada with any data stream instead of files, for the archives as well as the archived entries.Total, unconditional portability: the C code has "only" been widely ported, with specific source parts (via conditional compilation) for different OS and compilers;a single Ada source code set produces a native Zip/UnZip in machine code for every OS, with every Ada compiler (sceptic ? click here to see a list of reportedly successfully tested environments). No effort of interfacing, no problem with that.Easier to verify and customize.
