The idea is to use this event (or any ZipMaster event) to set the path and name of the files in the zip archive. I mean in my project the zipped files have completelly different path than the original disk paths, so i need a possibility to rename the files or even disable some of them. I found this event usefull because i have the ExtName parameter. In my case the option AddDirNames is not important at all because I simply ignore the FileName parameter and I rename the file. I've used ZipMaster 1.78 1. My First Solution: I've tried without AddDirnames. This is working because anyway i set the path, using the information from ExtName. It is also possible to set nothing to filename and the file is not added at all. Maybe it's a bug (very usefull in my case). What I found not very logic : i cannot add files with the same filename, even if i rename them. Probably you check the Filenames, why you don't check the renamed files to see if you have duplicate filenames ? Ex: C:\My Files\duplicate.txt -> MyStorageFolder\duplicate.txt C:\My Files\Folder\duplicate.txt -> MyStorageFolder2\duplicate.txt C:\My Files\Folder\todelete.txt -> (nothing) -empty allowed -duplicate is not possible, because of duplicate filename. 2. My Second Solution: with AddDirnames Ex. C:\My Files\duplicate.txt -> MyStorageFolder\duplicate.txt C:\My Files\Folder\duplicate.txt -> MyStorageFolder2\duplicate.txt C:\My Files\Folder\todelete.txt -> (nothing) - empty not allowed (Bad Zip Options) -duplicate is possible ------------- Question: is there any possibilty to solve this problem ? An event to rename the files and to cancel some.
