File attributes

[TonyA]

I'm using the IncludeArchiveFiles, IncludeReadOnlyFiles, IncludeHiddenFiles and IncludeSysFiles properties to filter files being added to a ZIP (via a wildcard). These seem to be ignored and files which shouldn't be added based on their attributes are added anyway (i.e. I've set IncludeArchiveFiles to False and files with the 'A' attribute are being added anyway). I've tried moving the block of code that changes the IncludeXXX properties at runtime around to before the .Zip function as well as before the IncludeList and a few other places without any luck. Please help.

I'm using VCLZip Pro 3.05 from 16 Jan 2005 with Delphi 7 if that's any help.

Thanks,
Tony.

I've used the OnStartZip event to filter on the file attributes and exclude those ones I don't want by setting Skip to True. Incidently I also tried setting the ResetArchiveBitOnZip property to True and it doesn't appear to be doing what it's supposed to either. The OnStartZip gives me a lot better control over what I want to do.

I will have to run a test to see if I can recreate this and get back to you.

Sorry I had some account problems and haven't been able to reply the last several days.
