Just done some tests on empty dirs
test condition
directory F:\Documenti has no files only 2subdirs
- pagine web salvate
- Second
the fist subdir has no files only one subdir 4_File and this one has 5 files
the second subdir has no files and only one subdir SecondSub that has 5
files init
Code used ( under button on form with ZIpbuilder on it)
ZipBuilder->AddCompLevel = 9;
ZipBuilder->AddOptions.Clear();
ZipBuilder->AddOptions << AddDirNames << AddHiddenFiles << AddRecurseDirs;
ZipBuilder->ZipFileName = "F:\\temp\\testref.zip";
ZipBuilder->FSpecArgs->Clear();
ZipBuilder->FSpecArgs->Add("F:\\Documenti\\*.*");
ZipBuilder->Add();
It zips the content without any problem
Can anyone give me some more info why I can't make it fail??
