| Exception | Description |
|---|---|
| ZipException | A critical zip operation error occurred during this activity. Please see ZipException.Message for details. |
This method is a quick and easy way to use the Archive component to compress a given file or files to a specified destination file. It combines the two operations of Archive.Add and Archive.Zip.
The Archive.Password and Archive.Encryption properties are used for data encryption during the QuickZip operation. The Archive.PreservePath property determines whether to preserve paths for each file item. The Archive.IncludeSubs property determines whether to include the subdirectories. The Archive.ExcludePattern property determines the files to exclude.
If an error occurs for an individual item during this operation, the Archive.Exception Event will be raised.
