declare function zExtractAll Lib "bszip.dll" (ByVal ExtractDirectory as string, ByVal Password as string,_ ByVal OverwriteExisting as byte, ByVal SkipOlder as byte, ByVal UseFolders as byte,_ ByVal TestOnly as byte, ByVal RTInfoFunc as long) as long *** VFP declaration DECLARE INTEGER zExtractAll IN bszip STRING extractdir, STRING pswd,; INTEGER OverwriteExisting, INTEGER SkipOlder, INTEGER UseFolders,; INTEGER TestOnly, LONG RTInfoFunc2) In order to get the file name of each of the files included in a zipped file, we are required to call a function: zGetFileName(nIndex). This function returns a pointer to a string somewhere in memory that contains the file's name. The documentation says that the function "MUST be wrapped with StringFromPointer to obtain the VB string." I'm assuming that VB has a means of returning the contents of a memory buffer based on a pointer. Does VFP have anything like this? Is there any way to accomplish this in VFP?
