portable zip library for C/C++ (not an application

问题:

I want to be able to zip files from my non-gui C/C++ application, on several versions of Windows, Linux/Unix, and MacOS.

The user will compile and run using this app using Eclipse + makefile or VisualStudio. I don't want the user to have to install something separately, or have my makefile install executables.

Prefer open-source. I'm already looking at "Zip 3.0"...

回答1:

Take a look at Libarchive. I spent a lot of time seeking for a cross-platform and LGPL licensed library with convenient interface. This the best of all I've seen. Very easy and powerful tool. Originally designed for Unix-like systems but there's also the Windows version.

I've had great results with miniz: https://code.google.com/p/miniz/

For a simple compression of strings in c++, I also really like Timo Bingmann's solution.

I'd recommend ZipLib https://bitbucket.org/wbenny/ziplib/wiki/Home

Personal reasons why I love this project:

• built around c++11 stl streams (ex. decompresses into stl streams!)
• lightweight (no dependencies other than zlib)
• can be used on both windows & liunx

It took me a long time to find this project - hope this helps someone.

回答4:

We've used zlib a couple times here. It's a fairly standard library that has implementations in most main languages.

How about this:

回答7:

ZLIB - the most portable library in the world. open source, very proven and reliable. The gold standard. why use anything else?

回答8:

Others have mentioned zlib, which is nice and fairly easy.

The 7-Zip (LZMA) SDK is more complex but also has very nice compression rates.

Edit: Although still in development, with the release process and history over time, I would be hesitant to recommend this now.
