Bonjour!
Un petit mot pour annoncer une nouvelle mouture de Zip-Ada.
Parmi les développements récents:
- utilisation possible pour des programmes d'installation (archives
auto-extractibles)
- support pour les noms de fichier internationaux UTF-8
- sous-format de compression Deflate
Ci-dessous, l'annonce complète en anglais.

Hello!
I am pleased to announce a new version of the Zip-Ada library, @
http://unzip-ada.sf.net/ .
Major changes in the last versions:
42: Support for Zip archives appended to other files, like a self-
extracting archive with Zip-Ada in the executable
41: Support for Unicode UTF-8 entry names within Zip archives
40: New package Zip.Compress.Deflate, with a first (weak but
straightforward) compression technique for the Deflate format
Some features:
- full sources are in Ada (no binding)
- decompression for all Zip sub-formats up to BZip2
- compression for all Zip sub-formats up to Deflate
- unconditionally portable
- input and output can be any stream (file, buffer,...) for archive
creation as well as data extraction.
- task safe
- endian-neutral
The zipada42.zip archive contains:
* The full library sources (inside one directory: Zip_Lib), in Ada
95,
using only Ada 95 standard's libraries
* Some command-line demo / tools:
* ZipAda, a zipping tool
* UnZipAda, an unzipping utility
* Comp_Zip, compares two Zip files
* Find_Zip, searches a text string through contents of a Zip file
* ReZip.adb, optimizes compression of Zip archives
NB: the ZipAda, UnZipAda, ReZip tools use a few non-Ada 95 library
items.
The tools can be found pre-built for Windows in zipada42-bin-
win32.zip .
Enjoy!
