VclZip pro v3.10.1
VCLZip Native Delphi Zip/UnZip Component! (VCLZip Lite: Version 2.23 April 14th, 2002) (VCLZip Pro: Version 3.10 Buid 1 - November 25th, 2007) IMPORTANT: If installing the registered version, please be sure to always re-install/rebuild the components (VCLZip and VCLUnZip) to the component pallette (or rebuild the design time package) so that the ThisVersion property and any other new properties will be properly updated. If your application still does not run without the IDE, open up VCLZip's package, click on options and look at the Directories/Conditionals tab. If KPDEMO is defined, remove it and recompile the package. ***IMPORTANT: Please remember do not install these components into a package by the name of either VCLZip or VCLUnZip. You will receive an error if you do. PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT THE "WHAT's NEW IN THIS VERSION" LINK IN THE HELP
FILE
AS IT HAS CONVENIENT LINKS TO ALL OF THE NEW TOPICS. ==================== Version 3.10 Build 1 - Several bug fixes. - Added support for Delphi 2006, 2007 - Added support for BCB 2006, 2007 - Improved memory performance when working with archives containing extremely high number of compressed
file
s. ==================== Version 3.06 Build 2 Made Delphi 2005 compatible Other assorted fixes ==================== Version 3.05 Build 1 Fixed a lot of incompatabilities between VCLZip and WinZip Other assorted fixes ==================== Version 3.04 Build 1 New ZLib methods for optimized compression and decompression of single entities of data in standard ZLib format, without the overhead of the PKZip format. This is excellent for compression of data to be sent across the net, compressing web pages (http compliant compression), blobs, etc. - ZLibCompressStream - ZLibDecompressStream - ZLibCompressBuffer - ZLibDecompressBuffer - ZLibCompressString - ZLibDecompressString Overloaded TStream Methods for Delphi 4,5, BCB 4, and 5 - UnZipToStream - UnZipToStreamByIndex - ZipFromStream Special OnGetNextTStream Event for Delphi 4,5, BCB 4, and 5 - Allows zipping multiple TStreams in one process - More efficient than calling ZipFromStream multiple times Capability to use the latest version of ZLib 1.2.1. - VCLZip currently uses 1.4.1 by default. - By defining ZLIB121, VCLZip will use the latest version of ZLib which is included with the registered version. Some optimization improvements which should show some improvement in zipping and unzipping speed when using TkpStreams with D4, D5, BCB4, and BCB5. ============ Version 3.03 (VCLZip Pro) - Please test your application thoroughly with this new version of VCLZip Pro. While it has been tested and has even been used in at least two production applications for several months now prior to initial release, there are so many combinations of property settings, environment differences, and ways to use VCLZip that you should always test VCLZip completely in your application before deploying. *** New Zip64 capabilities, properties, methods and events: - Uncompressed, Compressed, and Archive
file
sizes can be up to 2^63-1 bytes in length. - You can compress up to 2147483647
file
s into an archive. This is compatible with PKZip's Zip64 format. - If a
file
does not extend beyond any of the original limitations (
file
sizes of 4 gig or 65535
file
s) then no Zip64 format information is included in the archive. - property isZip64 - tells you when you are working with a zip
file
that is using Zip64 format. Much faster processing due to linking to Zlib object
file
s for compression and decompression routines. Blocked Zip
File
s (spanned zip archives split onto hard drive) - Now completely compatible with PKZip and WinZip split archives
file
naming format. - For backwards compatability you can tell VCLZip to use the old VCLZip
file
naming format by using the BlockMode property. - New method On
File
NameForSplitPart called just before each split
file
part is created. VCLZip supplies a default implementation of this method so for most purposes you won't need your own. - method Default
File
NameForSplitPart - VCLZip calls this internally if you don't define your own On
File
NameForSplitPart. You can also call it from your own On
File
NameForSplitPart if you wish to add some processing to the default behavior. - property BlockMode - determines whether VCLZip uses PKZip/WinZip standard naming convention or VCLZip classic method. - method DefaultGetNextDisk - VCLZip calls this internally if you don't define your own OnGetNextDisk. You can also call it from your own OnGetNextDisk event if you wish to add some processing to the default behavior. - Properties for controlling which
file
s are zipped... - IncludeHidden
File
s - default False; - IncludeSys
File
s: - default False; - IncludeReadOnly
File
s: - default True; - IncludeArchive
File
s: - default True; - Event OnGetNextStream - Allows you to zip from multiple streams when using the ZipFromStream method. This improves performance since repeated calls to ZipFromStream causes the archive to be updated on each subsequent call. - property ThisBuild - Tells you the current build. See also ThisVersion - property OnHandleMessage - Handles interactive messages with VCLZip. There is a default, so you don't need to define your own unless you wish to eliminate interactive messages and handle them on your own. This is helpful if you are using VCLZip as a service or on a webserver for instance. ******** Upgrading existing applications that use VCLZip 2.X ********** For the most part, existing applications will work as-is. Just install VCLZip 3.X and recompile your code. Here are some things to be aware of though... 1) If your app currently creates mmBlock archives (spanned directly to hard drive) and you define your own OnGetNextDisk in VCLZip 2.X, you should move your code from this event that handles mmBlock events to the new event On
File
NameForSplitPart. However, if you simply rely on VCLZip's default OnGetNextDisk then you don't have to worry about this. 2) If your app creates mmBlock archives, the default naming convention has changed to match the PKZip/WinZip standard. If you wish to keep the same naming convention then set BlockMode := mbClassic. 3) OnGetNextDisk and OnPrepareNextDisk events are called for the 1st disk now. VCLZip 2.X only calls these events starting with the 2nd disk. 4) properties CompressedSize[Index], UncompressedSize[Index], ZipSize are now Int64 types. 5) Delphi 4, Delphi 5, BCB 4, and BCB5 are all capable of using the Zip64 format. However they use the TkpHugeStream decendants which act just like TStreams except they handle
file
s/stream sizes larger than 2gig. There is a TkpHuge
File
Stream and a TkpHugeMemoryStream which should handle 99% of all necessary actions. If you currently work with VCLZip 2.X with TBlobStreams or some other type of streams, you can either define your own TkpBlobStream for instance which inherits from TkpHugeStream, or use the TkpHugeStream.CopyFrom(TStream, Count) and the TkpHugeStream.GetStream: TStream methods to give VCLZip your stream and get it back. Ofcourse when using regular TStream decendants in D4,4,BCB4,and 5, you cannot create Zip64 archives. If you use Delphi 6, 7, or BCB 6, you don't have to worry about any of this as the normal TSTream is used by VCLZip and handles large
file
/stream sizes. ============ Version 2.23 (VCLZip Lite) Added the OEMConvert property.
File
names stored in a PKZip compatible archive normally go through an OEM conversion to make them ascii compatible. When opening the zip
file
the conversion is undone. If you do not plan on having other zip utilities opening up your archives this conversion process is not really necessary. Setting this property to False will eliminate this process. The default value for this property is True for normal PKZip compatability. Added OnEncrypt and OnDecrypt events. These allow you to replace the standard pkzip encryption with your own. Data is passed to these events a buffer at a time. Use this with care as this is still somewhat experimental and I'm not sure how useful it is yet. You must make all changes within the buffer sent in to you. Treat the entire
file
as a stream. Byte for byte replacement only. No additional keys can be saved. Added OnRecursing
File
event. Sometimes when using wildcards and recursing directories, there was no reporting of progress. This will be fired each time a
file
matches as the
file
list is being built while recursing directories. Added the EncryptBeforeCompress boolean property. The default for this property is False and if left like this VCLZip will behave like normal. If set to True, VCLZip will encrypt each buffer prior to compressing it instead of afterwards. This will cause
file
s to not be decryptable by normal zip utilities thereby adding a bit of extra security. Bugs Fixed: IMPORTANT!!! Behavior of freeing the ArchiveStream (compressed stream) has been modified. VCLZip will now no longer try to free ArchiveStream, you must free it yourself. This was due to a problem where it would be freed automatically if there was a problem with the ArchiveStream when trying to open it as a zip
file
(possibly corrupt). Best practice is that ArchiveStream should always point toward a TMemoryStream that you create anyway. Modified the SFX code (the code used to create the SFX stub distributed with VCLZip) so that it handles
file
names that have been run through an OEM Conversion. The SFX was losing accented characters. This modification means that if you are creating zip
file
s to be used as SFX's you will want to leave the OEMConvert property mentioned above, set to it's default value of True. Modified so that when cursor is changed to hourglass by VCLZip, previous cursor is saved correctly instead of just changing it back to default cursor. Now saves Central Directory Extra Fields correctly. Fixed the SFX code so that it works properly if you use Copy /B to concatenate a zip
file
to the stub. Due to a Delphi strange behavior sometimes path names for directory only entries would become corrupted. Removed reference to QConsts, replaced with RTLConsts. Sometimes a GPF would result if a corrupt zip
file
was opened. Using a wildcard in pathname added to
File
sList did not work. Using '*.*' as a wildcard in
file
s added to
File
sList now is the same as using '*'. VCLZip will now
check
for CancelTheOperation during initial building of the
file
slist instead of just during compression processing. Added a final call to OnTotalPercentDone with 100% because this didn't always happen. Attributes were not getting set correctly for directory-only entries. Fixed a problem that was not allowing ZipComment's to be added correctly to spanned or blocked zip
file
s. Not the same fix as in 2.22. Directories (directory-only entries) were not being restored properly unless DoAll was True. You were unable to delete a directory from which
file
s were recursively zipped until exiting your application. ============ Version 2.22 Now Delphi 6 compatible. New event called {link=93,OnRecursing
File
} which gets called as VCLZip recurses directories searching for
file
s that match a wildcard that is entered in the
File
sList. This gets called each time a
file
matches the wildcard. Fixed a bug which kept diskettes from being labeled when creating spanned zip
file
s on WIN31. Fixed a bug which sometimes did not allow zip comments to be added to blocked zip sets. Fixed a bug which caused VCLZip to not properly handle the IncompleteZip exception on spanned zip sets unless you called ReadZip prior to calling UnZip. Version 2.21 (Changes are shown in the build stages as they were implemented) Pre-Release Build 5: When working with temporary
file
s, VCLZip will now rename, instead of copy, the temp
file
if the destination is on the same drive. This will speed up the adding of
file
s to an existing zip
file
when the resulting zip
file
is very large. Pre-Release Build 4: New event called OnPrepareNextDisk which is an event that will allow you, when creating spanned zip
file
s across diskettes, to do things like format a diskette that has just been inserted, or to add or delete
file
s from the diskette before continuing with the zipping process. Fixed a problem that was causing the CancelTheOperation Method to not work properly. Pre-Release Build 3: Fixed bug which caused VCLZip to miscalculate space needed for zfc
file
if wildcards are put into the
File
sList. Fixed bug so you could have
File
PercentDone without needing TotalPercentDone when creating spanned zip
file
s Fixed so relative_offset set correctly for spanned zips. Side effect of removing needless write of header. Added code to read local
file
headers if exception thrown when reading a central
file
header. Fixed problem where directories couldn't be created from directory entries because the fullpath wasn't known yet. Result of having moved this code to earlier. Fixed typo in creation of LOC header values which could cause error if reading local headers. Changed so Zip Comment starting position is calculated based on end of central record instead of end of
file
. Pre-Release Build 2: IMPORTANT: Changed default for
File
OpenMode back to fmShareDenyNone as it had been for all but version 2.20. Fixed a problem where drivepart (i.e. C:\) was not being stripped when saving relative paths. Added a BufferedStreamSize property which can increase the speed of creating zips to
floppy
(and other slow media) dramatically. The new default for this should increase the speed by as much as 3 times, but you can now tweak this especially for your application! Added an ImproperZip property which gets set when VCLZip detects an inconsistency with the zip. This can be useful for detecting when VCLZip was able to open the zip in spite of an inconsistency found. There was no way to know this in the past. Fixed a problem where zip comments in zfc
file
s were not being read correctly. Added a setZipSignatures procedure which allows you to modify the signatures of your zip
file
. This will cause other zip utilities to not be able to recognize or read your zip
file
s created with VCLZip. Useful if you want to add further security to your zip
file
s. Pre-Release Build 1: Some zip
file
s would not open correctly, throwing an incomplete zip
file
exception due to an erroneous "extra field length" identifier in headers of some compressed
file
s. These zip
file
s are rare, but a very few people seemed to have several of them. This problem would not affect zip
file
s created by VCLZip, and this problem should only occur in VCLZip 2.20, not in any previous version. If you had Range
Check
ing turned on, VCLZip would get a range
check
error when using a wildcard that ended with a * as in 'some
file
.*'. Under certain circumstances, drive information would not be stripped from path information if zipping recursively (including subdirectories) "Retrying" to zip a
file
that could not be opened using the OnSkipping
File
event would not always work correctly. Creating spanned zip set to
floppy
should be faster now due to removing a needless header write to disk for each
file
. VCLZip would not compile correctly with MAKESMALL defined. Added code to make VCLZip work with BCB5. Haven't tested this yet though since I don't have BCB5 myself yet. Added readonly boolean ImproperZip property which will be set to True when some sort of problem is found when opening the zip
file
, even if recoverable. This property will be enhanced and refined in the future. If KeepZipOpen is set to True, when putting in the wrong disk in a spanned zip set, VCLZip would not always properly close the
file
on the old diskette before trying to open the
file
on the next diskette. Added ECantWriteUCF exception which will be thrown if VCLZip runs out of room to write the uncompressed
file
when unzipping. Timestamp was not being set properly when unzipping readonly
file
s. Moved setting of the timestamp to before the attributes get set. ============ Version 2.20 Changes have been made in the following areas: --Performance There are a few code optimizations that should speed up the zipping process slightly. --Spanned Zip
File
s A new feature, turned on with the SaveZipInfoOnFirstDisk allows VCLZip to create and read spanned zip
file
s starting with the first disk instead of the normally required last disk of the spanned disk set by saving a Zip Configuration
File
on the first disk. This feature can be used even if creating the spanned zip
file
directly to your hard drive. A new property, SaveOnFirstDisk, allows you to save room on the first disk when creating a spanned zip
file
, to allow room for other
file
s, such as setup programs, data
file
s, or a Zip Configuration
File
. Spanned zip
file
s can now be directed toward disks greater than 2 gig in size as long as you are using Delphi 5 or BCB 4. --UnZipping The new
Select
ed indexed property offers another way to flag
file
s to be unzipped.
File
s that have the
Select
ed property set to True can be unzipped using the UnZip
Select
ed method. The
Select
ed property will be cleared (set to False) for each
file
as it is unzipped, but you can also call the Clear
Select
ed method to clear them all. At anytime the Num
Select
ed property can be
check
ed to see how many
file
s have been
select
ed. Also, the UnZipToBufferByIndex and UnZipToStreamByIndex methods allow you to unzip
file
s specified by their index instead of by name or wildcard. The BufferLength property allows buffered output (buffer smaller than the total uncompressed
file
size) when unzipping directly to memory (see UnZipToBuffer and UnZipToBufferByIndex). This will cause the OnGetNextBuffer Event to be called everytime BufferLength bytes have been output by VCLZip. Modified to work in all ways with zip
file
s that have "extra fields" in their headers. These tend to be quite rare, but they do show up from time to time. --Zipping Added a property called
File
OpenMode which allows you to define the
file
open mode for
file
s when they are opened to be zipped. Added a Retry parameter to the OnSkipping
File
Event that can be used to re-attempt to open a
file
for zipping that is open by another process. This gives the chance to close the
file
and continue with the zipping process rather than having to start over again. Added a ENotEnoughRoom exception which will be thrown if there is not enough room to write to the archive, i.e. out of disk space. The new OnUpdate Event gets fired when updating or freshening an existing archive. It is triggered for each
file
that already exists in the archive as it is either replaced or kept in the updated archive. The AddDirEntriesOnRecurse will cause separate directory entries to be included in archives when doing recursive zips through subdirectories. --Integrity
Check
ing A new method,
Check
Archive, will perform an integrity
check
on all
file
s in an archive. This is much faster than using
File
IsOK on each
file
if testing all
file
s in an archive with VERY MANY
file
s. Further improved
check
ing for corrupted zip
file
s when opening zip
file
s. --Encryption The following new properties and methods allow lower level work with password encrypted archives: DecryptHeader Gets the decryption header for a particular compressed
file
in an archive GetDecryptHeaderPtr Same as DecryptHeader but easier to use in BCB. DecryptHeaderByte Method Tests a password against the decryption header found in the DecryptHeader property. GetDecryptHeaderByteByPtr Same as DecryptHeaderByte but easier to use in BCB. --Self Extracting Executables Changes were made to the ZIPSFX32.BIN stub itself: - Modified to work with zip
file
s containing "extra fields" in their headers. - Modified to change mouse cursor to an hour glass during processing. -
Check
for correct
file
size is now done automatically - Now uses the end of central and central headers to find the first local header. - Added a progress meter - Better
check
ing for corrupted zip
file
s. - Added an information window that can optionally be shown when the sfx is initially started up. - Added an AutoRun option to make the sfx stub run automatially when double clicked with no other interaction from the user. For the new modified sfx stub, ZIPSFX32.BIN, instead of using kpSFXOpt, you should now use the TSfxConfig component to set the options for the sfx stub. The new sfx can be found in the sfx\ subdirectory as usual and is called ZIPSFX32.BIN and the original sfx can be found in the same subdirectory except it is now called ORGSFX32.bin. Just rename it if you prefer that one (use KPSFXOPT instead of TSfxConfig with the old stub). --Miscellaneous The installation is now easier, atleast for first time installers of the source code. The .DPK
file
s for Delphi and .CPP
file
s for BCB are now included. Now these
file
s simply have to be compiled and that's it. There is a separate option in the installation for installing to the different versions of Delphi and BCB. Added a property called Flush
File
sOnClose which will cause all
file
s opened for write by VCLZip to have their disk buffers flushed to disk when closed. Added the capability to delete
Select
ed
file
s from an archive using the DeleteEntries Method. The behavior of the OnInCompleteZip Event has been greatly improved. You can now use this event to ask the user to insert the last disk of a spanned disk set rather than having to handle this situation from outside VCLZip. The register procedures were changed so that the components now get installed to the "VCLZip" tab on the palette. I found that for all but Delphi 1 I had to actually manually move the components to the "VCLZip" tab. You may find that you have to do this too if you have already installed VCLZip before. The components now use new bitmaps in place of the old ones on the component palette. Separated many compiler defines into a new
file
called KPDEFS.INC. ==================================== Version 2.18: 1) Thanks to the hard work of a fellow registered user, added the capability to remove all dependencies on the Dialogs, Forms, Controls, and
File
Ctrl units by defining the conditional MAKESMALL, which results in a smaller footprint. This can be quite useful when putting VCLZip into a DLL for instance. In order to make this work, go into your Project | Options and
select
the Directories/Conditionals tab and enter MAKESMALL in the conditional defines text box. In Delphi you can add this conditinal define to the project options of your application that uses VCLZip and then do a "build all". In BCB you will have to add this to the project options of the package that contains VCLZip and then rebuild the package. If you define MAKESMALL, the only things you lose are: a) ZIP
file
open dialog box that appears when the ZipName is set to "?" b)
Select
Directory dialog box that appears when the DestDir is set to "?" c) Changing the cursor to an hour glass during some operations. d) No long
file
name support in Delphi 1 2) Made VCLZip completely BCB4 compatible. 3) Added some exception handling to KPUNZIPP and KPINFLT, mainly to handle unexpected situations when wrong passwords are entered. This fixes the problem with PRP, the password recovery program. 4) For Borland C++ Builder, changed any COMP types to double, getting rid of the compiler warnings for unsupported comp type. This affects the OnStartZipInfo and OnStartUnZipInfo events, so you'll have to change the comp parameter to double in these events if you use them (in both your header
file
s and in the CPP
file
s). 5) Modified OnStartUnZip event so that FName (the
file
name of the
file
that is about to be unzipped along with complete path) is now a VAR parameter and can be modified. This allows you to change the path and name of a
file
that is about to be unzipped. This is especially helpfull in applications like Install Programs. NOTE: You will need to change your current code to add the VAR to the event definition and implementation if you already use this event in your application. (In BCB, add a & just before the parameter instead of VAR) 6) Moved many type definitions to VCLUNZIP.PAS so that kpZipObj won't have to be included in your USES list. 7) Fixed bug that caused GPF when setting Zip Comment to '' (empty string). 8) Moved strings in VCLZip/VCLUnZip into a string table, making the code size a little smaller as well as making it much easier to localize string information. However you have the option of not using the new string table, for whatever reason, by defining NO_RES in your project options (in the conditional defines text box on the Directories/Conditionals tab). 9) Removed the need for several
file
s. No longer included are kpstrm.res, kpstrm.rc, kpsconst.res, kpsconst.rc, kpstres.pas, and for Delphi 1, kpdrvs.pas. In some cases the need for these
file
s was eliminated and in other cases just rolled into the newly included kpzcnst.rc, kpzcnst.pas, and kpzcnst.res. Definining NO_RES in your project options will elimiate the need for these new
file
s but will make your code size slightly larger and you won't be able to localize your application without changing VCLZip source code. 10) Modified the On
File
PercentDone and OnTotalPercentDone progress events to work better when creating spanned disk sets and blocked zip sets. They no longer report 100% when the compressed
file
still has to be copied to disk. 11) Added the ReplaceReadOnly property. Setting this to true will allow
file
s with the ReadOnly attribute to be replaced during the unzip process. 12) Added the ifNewer and ifOlder options to the OverwriteMode property. (This had somehow made it into the help
file
but not into VCLUnZip) 13) Added the SFXToZip method which will convert an SFX
file
to a regular zip
file
. The header pointers will be properly adjusted during the conversion. 14) Fixed a problem where the OnGetNextDisk event would always revert to the DefaultGetNextDisk method instead of what you entered into the Object Inspector each time your project was re-opened. 15) Fixed a bug that caused CRC errors when unzipping
file
s from spanned disk sets if they were STORED (no compression) and spanned across disks. 16) Added the OnZipComplete and OnUnZipComplete events. If defined, these will fire at the very end of a zip or unzip operation (after all
file
s have been processed, not after each
file
). These events will rarely be used since, normally you will be able to do the same thing at the point that the call to Zip or UnZip returns, but these events can be useful when using VCLZip in threads where in certain circumstances the return from the Zip or UnZip methods are not seen. 17) Creation of SFX
file
s has never been easier!!! The addition of the MakeNewSFX method allows you to create Self Extracting Executables without the need to create a zip
file
first. The
file
s that you specify in the
File
sList property will be zipped, using all the normal VCLZip property settings, and the SFX will be created, all in one step! In addition, you can create configurable SFX
file
s using this method, and you can do this especially easy by adding the new unit kpSFXOpt to your application's USES list and using the new 32bit SFX stub that is now distributed with VCLZip. This allows you to easily set things like SFX Dialog caption, default target extraction directory,
file
to launch after extraction, etc. 18) Fixed a memory leak that only affects applications using VCLZip that are compiled with Delphi 2, and that use wildcard specifications in the
File
sList property. Version 2.17a: 1) Fixed a bug that was keeping VCLZip from reading truncated zip
file
s or sfx
file
s that did not have their headers adjusted. 2) Fixed a bug that was causing a directory to be created on the C drive when doing integrity
check
ing with the
File
IsOK property. 3) Added {$V-} to kpZipObj.PAS 4) Moved two AssignTo methods to public instead of private in kpZipObj.PAS Version 2.17: 1) Added Memory zipping and unzipping capabilities through the UnZipToBuffer and ZipFromBuffer methods. See the documentation for these methods in the Help
File
for more information. 2) New
File
IsOK Property allows you to
check
for the integrity of individual
file
s within an archive without actually unzipping the
file
. 3) Fixed a bug that kept
check
ing of volume labels from working on WIN31 when working with spanned disk sets. 4) Removed all references to ChDirectory so that VCLZip will be more thread safe allowing separate instances of VCLZip in separate threads to be performing zip/unzip operations at the same time. 5) A new public property PreserveStubs allows you to make modifications to sfx archives and have the archive remain an SFX rather than revert back to a normal zip
file
. 6) Added a default OnGetNextDisk event. If one is not defined, then the default event will be called when the situation arises that a new disk is needed when zipping or unzipping a spanned or blocked zip archive. 7) Added more power to the wildcard capabilities. Now you can qualify the * wildcard character, for instance: * would satisfy any number of contiguous characters as long as they are all a thru e. * would satisfy any number of contiguous characters as long as none of them were a thru e. This allows you to do things like include
file
s in specific direcories into your ExcludeList. For instance: VCLZip1.ExcludeList.Add('c:\test\*.txt') would exclude the zipping of all .txt
file
s in the test directory but not in any subdirectories. 8) Fixed other minor bugs and made other code enhancements. Version 2.16: ***Please be aware that if you currently use the OnSkipping
File
event in any of your applications, version 2.16 will require a small modification as this event has an added parameter and one of the current parameters is used a little differently when being called by the zip operation. Please see the help
file
for more information. 1) The OnSkipping
File
Event has been changed slightly, adding a parameter for the
file
name. 2) OnSkipping
File
is now called when a
file
to be zipped is skipped because it is locked by another application. See the Help
File
for more information. 3) Fixed a bug with the Exclude and NoCompressList where they were ignoring entries with anything before the extention (i.e. 'some
file
.*' as opposed to '*.zip') if you were saving directory information. 4) Fixed a bug that caused an error if you added a wildcard with a non-existent directory to the
File
sList. 5) A few other minor bug fixes. Modifications for 2.15 include: 1) PackLevel can now be set to 0 (zero) which means no compression at all (STORED only). 2) New property ExcludeList is a new stringlist that you can add
file
names and wildcards to in order to specify
file
s that you do not wish to be included in an archive. 3) New property NoCompressList is a new stringlist that you can add
file
names and wildcards to in order to specify
file
s that you wish to be STORED with a PackLevel of 0 (zero), no compression. 4) All compiler warnings and hints were removed. Modifications for 2.14 include: 1) Delphi 4 compatability. 2) Added ability to use complex wildcards when specifying which
file
s are to be zipped. This includes wildcard characters not only in the
file
name but also in the pathname. This allows you to specify directories using wildcards, for instance: VCLZip1.
File
sList.add('c:\test\w*\mycode*.pas'); would get all PAS
file
s beginning with mycode in subdirectories under TEST that begin with the letter w. Wilcards may be much more complex than this. Please see the help
file
for more information. 3) Added the ability to override the RECURSE property setting when specifying
file
s to be zipped. By adding the following characters to the beginning of the
file
names being added, you can override whatever the current setting is for the RECURSE property: '>' will force recursion into subdirectories '|' will force NO-recursion For instance: VCLZip1.
File
sList.add('>c:\windows\*.ini'); will get all .ini
file
s in and below the windows directory reguardless of what the recurse property setting is. and: VCLZip1.
File
sList.add('|c:\windows\sys*\*.dll'); will get all .dll
file
s in subdirectories of the windows directories that start with 'sys' but will not recurse into any directories below the sys* directories. 4) The [ and ] characters previously used as special wildcard characters have been changed to since [ and ] are valid
file
name characters. If you still need to use the previous characters for backward compatability, I can show registered users how to easily modify a couple of constants in the source code in order to go back to the old style. See "Using Wildcards" in the help
file
for more information. 5) A few bug fixes. Modifications for 2.13 include: 1) New property ResetArchiveBitOnZip causes each
file
's archive bit to be turned off after being zipped. 2) New Property SkipIfArchiveBitNotSet causes
file
s who's archive bit is not set to be skipped during zipping operations. 3) A few modifications were made to allow more compatibility with BCB 1. 4) Cleaned up the Help
File
some. 5) KWF
file
now works for Delphi 1 and Delphi 2 again. Still can't get context sensitive help in Delphi 3. 6) Cleaned up some of the code that was causing compiler warnings and hints. Modifications for 2.12 include: 1) Added a TempPath property to allow the temporary
file
s path to be different from the Windows default. 2) Modified VCLZip so that any temporary
file
s that are created receive a unique temporary
file
name so as not to clash with any other
file
s in the temporary directory. This also allows working with zip
file
s residing in the temporary directory. 3) Fixed a bug in the relative path feature. 4) Fixed a bug that caused a "list out of bounds" error if a
file
in the
File
sList did not actually exist. Modifications for 2.11 include: 1) Fixed password encryption bug for 16 bit. 2) Fixed "invalid pointer operation" when closing application bug. 3) Fixed path device truncation bug which caused inability to modify existing archives in 16 bit. 4) Fixed inability to cancel during wilcard expansion bug. 5) Added capability to better handle corrupted timestamps. 6) Added capability to open and work with SFX
file
s that were created with the COPY/B method (header
file
s not adjusted). 7) Other small bug fixes. I'm still working on a bug which causes a GPF when continually unzipping the same
file
thousands to millions of times. This mainly affects programs like the Password Recovery Program (PRP) which uses the brute force method of searching for an archive's password. Modifications for 2.10 include: 1) Capability for 16bit VCLZip to store long
file
/path names when running on a 32bit OS. 2) New property (Store83Names) which allows you to force DOS 8.3
file
and path names to be stored. 3) Better UNC path support. 4) Fixed a bug to allow
file
s to be added to an empty archive. Modifications for 2.03 include: 1) Volume labels now get written correctly to spanned disk sets in Delphi 1 for all versions of Windows. 2) Delphi 1 VCLZip now correctly recognizes when it is running on Windows NT. 3) Fixed a problem with zipping
file
s in the root directory when StorePaths = True. 4)
File
and Zip Comments are now read correctly from spanned/blocked zip archives. 5) Fixed a buf that was causing "Duplicate Object" errors. Modifications for 2.02 include: 1) Fix for
file
comments which were supposed to be fixed in version 2.01 but weren't. 2) Fix for stream zipping. Version 2.01 would not create a new archive if using a stream. (The Stream Demo now allows creating new zip
file
s to streams too) 3) A few other minor modifications to further solidify the code. 4) A modification to the Zip Utility Demo which allows unzipping from Blocked zip
file
s as if they were single zip
file
s. 5) Added a read-only, published ThisVersion property which reflects the version of the VCLZip/VCLUnZip that you are currently working with. Modifications for 2.01 include: 1) Fixes for exceptions that were caused when CANCELING a zip or unzip of a spanned zip
file
. 2) Fix for a possible problem when zipping or unzipping a spanned zip
file
when one or more of the compressed
file
s resided on more than 2 of the spanned parts. 3) Fix for
file
comments which were broken in version 2.00. Additional features for version 2.00 include: 1) Modify/Add internal
file
details (
file
name, pathname, timestamp, comment) for any
file
while zipping, in the OnStartZip event. 2) Add an Archive Comment while zipping in the OnStartZipInfo event. 3) Delphi 1 compatiblity for VCLZip. 4) Stream to Stream Zipping - Archives themselves can now be TStreams! 5) New Relative Path Information option. 6) Unzip archives that weren't zipped with the Relative Path option turned on as if they had been by determining how much path information to use with the Rootpath property. 7) Modify timestamps for
file
s in existing archives (you could already modify
file
names and pathnames for
file
s in existing archives) 8) The OnBadPassword event now allows you to supply a new password and try the same
file
again when unzipping. 9) Source code has been cleaned up so that it will compile under Borland C++ Builder with no modifications. Also some bugs were fixed, most importantly: 1) An empty
file
, that had been compressed into an archive would cause any
file
added to the archive to cause the archive to approximately double in size. Any archives containing empty
file
s are not corrupted, they are OK. This was simply a fix to the way the archive was processed. 2) After creating an SFX
file
, you had to close the zip
file
before you could modify it in any way, otherwise a stream read error was encountered. See the Help
file
for more information on new features. This zip
file
is part of a self contained installation program. Just run it and the installation program will begin. Contact vclzip@bigfoot.com for further information Thanks! Kevin Boylan

(special thanks to Mark Ebersole for his patch) - Several bugfixes in CPU emulation (mostly for x87 instructions) - Fixed two critical deadlock bugs in the Win32 gui (patches from @SF tracker) - Fixes related to the 'show ips' feature - removed conflicting win32-specific alarm() functions ('win32' and 'sdl' gui) - feature now works in wx on win32 - Added support for gdb stub on big endian machine (patch by Godmar Back) - Rewritten obsolete hash_map code in dbg symbols module (patch from @SF) - BIOS: implemented missing INT 15h/89h (patch by Sebastian Herbszt) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in 2.4 (May 3, 2009): Brief summary : - Added graphical Bochs debugger frontend for most of the supported platforms. - Thanks for Chourdakis Michael and Bruce Ewing. - Many new CPU features in emulation - Support for > 32 bit physical address space and configurable MSRs - VMX, 1G pages in long mode, MOVBE instruction - Bugfixes for CPU emulation correctness, debugger and CPU instrumentation. - New config interface 'win32config' with start and runtime menu - USB: added OHCI support, external hub and cdrom - Added user plugin interface support. Detailed change log : - CPU and internal debugger - Support for VMX hardware emulation in Bochs CPU, to enable configure with --enable-vmx option Nearly complete VMX implementation, with few exceptions: - Dual-monitor treatment of SMIs and SMM not implemented yet - NMI virtualization, APIC virtualization not implemented yet - VMENTER to not-active state not supported yet - No advanced features like Extended Page Tables or VPID - Support for configurable MSR registers emulation, to enable configure with --enable-configurable-msrs option Look for configuration example in .bochsrc and msrs.def - Support new Intel Atom(R) MOVBE instruction, to enable configure with --enable-movbe option - Support for 1G pages in long mode, to enable configure with --enable-1g-pages option - Support for > 32 bit physical address space in CPU. Up to 36 bit could be seen in legacy mode (PAE) and up to 40 bit in x86-64 mode. Still support the same amount of the physical memory in the memory object, so system with > 4Gb of RAM yet cannot be emulated. To enable configure with --enable-long-phy-address option. - Implemented modern BIOSes mode limiting max reported CPUID function to 3 using .bochsrc CPU option. The mode is required in order to correctly install and boot WinNT. - Added ability to configure CPUID vendor/brand strings through .bochsrc (patch from @SF by Doug Reed). - Many bugfixes for CPU emulation correctness (both x86 and x86-64). - Updated CPU instrumentation callbacks. - Fixed Bochs internal debugger breakpoints/watchpoints handling. - Configure and compile - Added ability to choose Bochs log
file
name and Bochs debugger log
file
name from Bochs command line (using new -log and -dbglog options) - Removed Peter Tattam's closed source external debugger interface from the code. - Removed --enable-guest2host-tlb configure option. The option is always enabled for any Bochs configuration. - Removed --enable-icache configure option. The option is always enabled for any Bochs configuration. Trace cache support still remains optional and could be configured off. - Added configure option to compile in GUI frontend for Bochs debugger, to enable configure with --enable-debugger-gui option. The GUI debugger frontend is enabled by default with Bochs debugger. - Removed --enable-port-e9-hack configure option. The feature now could be configured at runtime through .bochsrc. - Added configure option to enable/disable A20 pin support. Disabling the A20 pin support slightly speeds up the emulation. - reduced dependencies between source
file
s for faster code generation - BIOS - Added S3 (suspend to RAM) ACPI state to BIOS (patch by Gleb Natapov) - Implemented MTRR support in the bios (patches by Avi Kivity and Alex Williamsion with additions by Sebastian Herbszt) - Bug fixes - I/O Devices - Added user plugin support - remaining devices converted to plugins: pit, ioapic, iodebug - added 'plugin_ctrl' bochsrc option to control the presence of optional device plugins without a separate option. By default all plugins are enabled. - added register mechanism for removable mouse and keyboard devices - Hard drive / cdrom - PACKET-DMA feature now supported by all ATAPI commands - ATAPI command 0x1A added (based on the Qemu implementation) - sb16 - Added ALSA sound support on Linux (PCM/MIDI output) - FM synthesizer now usable with MIDI output (simple piano only) - Fixed OPL frequency to MIDI note translation - Fixed MIDI output command - keyboard - added keyboard controller commands 0xCA and 0xCB - USB - USB code reorganized to support more HC types and devices - added USB OHCI support written by Ben Lunt - added external USB hub support (initial code ported from Qemu) - added USB cdrom support (SCSI layer ported from Qemu) - added status bar indicators to show data transfer - VGA - VBE video memory increased to 16 MB - implemented changeable VBE LFB base address (PCI only, requires latest BIOS and VGABIOS images) - I/O APIC - implemented I/O APIC device hardware reset - Config interface - new config interface 'win32config' with start and runtime menu is now the default on Windows ('textconfig' is still available) - win32 device config dialogs are now created dynamicly from a parameter list (works like the wx ParamDialog) - changes in textcofig and the wx ParamDialog for compatibility with the new win32 dialog behaviour - Bochs param tree index keys are case independent now - some other additions / bugfixes in the simulator interface code - Misc - updated LGPL'd VGABIOS to version 0.6c - Updated Bochs TESTFORM to version 0.4 - SF patches applied [2784858] IO Handler names are not compared properly [2712569] Legacy bios serial data buffer timeout bug by grybranix [2655090] 64 bit BSWAP with REX.W broken by M.

with your local software dealer or users' group. 3. Write to us at the following address: Borland International Turbo C Technical Support 1800 Green Hills Road P.O. Box 660001 Scotts Valley, CA 95066-0001 Please remember to include your serial number or we will be unable to process your letter. 4. If you have an urgent problem that cannot wait and you have sent in the license agreement from the front of your manual, you may call the Borland Technical Support Department at (408) 438-5300. Please have the following information ready before calling: a. Product name and serial number on your original distribution disk. Please have your serial number ready or we will be unable to process your call. b. Product version number. The version number for Turbo C is displayed when you first load the program and before you press any keys. c. Computer brand, model, and the brands and model numbers of any additional hardware. d. Operating system and version number. (The version number can be determined by typing VER at the MSDOS prompt.) e. Contents of your AUTOEXEC.BAT
file
. f. Contents of your CONFIG.SYS
file
. 2. INSTALLATION ---------------- The INSTALL/HELP disk contains a program called INSTALL.EXE that will assist you with the installation of Turbo C 2.0. There are three options for installation: 1. Hard Disk - This option allows you to pick the subdirectories where the
file
s will be loaded. It will create a TURBOC.CFG
file
based on those directories. 2. Update from TC 1.5 - This allows for an easy update from version 1.5. After the
file
s are copied, all the installed options from your current TC.EXE will be transferred to the new one. This is especially useful if you have modified the colors or editor keys. 3.
Floppy
Disk - This option will build either a command line or Integrated Development Environment version for a two drive system. Be sure to have three formatted disks ready before you start. To start the installation, change your current drive to the one that has the install program on it and type INSTALL. You will be given instructions in a box at the bottom of the screen for each prompt. For example, if you will be installing from drive A:, type: A: INSTALL You should read the rest of this README
file
to get further information about this release before you do the installation. 3. IMPORTANT NOTES ------------------- o The
file
HELPME!.DOC contains discussions of common questions and answers concerning Turbo C 2.0. You should consult it for answers to problems that aren't covered in this
file
or in the manuals. o If you are running INSTALL or TCINST on a laptop or any other system that uses an LCD or composite display, you should set your system to black and white mode before running INSTALL or TCINST. You can do this from DOS with the following command line: mode bw80 or, you can force INSTALL or TCINST to come up in black and white mode by using the /b switch: tcinst /b o /P PARAMETER FOR TC.EXE. A new command-line switch controls palette swapping on EGA video adapters. Using this switch tc /p hello is recommended only when the user program modifies the EGA palette registers. When /P is specified, the EGA palette will be restored each time the screen is swapped. In general, you don't need to use this switch unless your program modifies the EGA palette registers, or unless your program uses BGI to change the palette. o A program that takes over interrupt 9 cannot be debugged with the integrated debugger. Use the standalone Turbo Debugger instead. o exec() WITH NOVELL NETWORK. Versions of the Novell network system software earlier than 2.01-2 do not support a DOS call used by exec(), spawn(), and system(). If you are using the Integrated Development Environment to run a program that uses any of these functions and you have early Novell system software, run the program from DOS. To do this from the Integrated Development Environment you can use Alt-F/O. o If you used the INSTALL program to upgrade from version 1.5, or if you used CINSTXFR to transfer options from an installation of version 1.5,
check
the setting of the standard stack frame option in the Integrated Development Environment (Alt-O/C/C/S). If you are going to use the integrated debugger this option should be turned ON. o If you are having problems with the call stack or qualified names, make sure you have compiled with the standard stack frame option turned on. o The ANSI draft has changed the syntax of labels. A label now must always be followed by a statement. This means that code like this is no longer accepted: { . . . jump_label: } If you have code like this, change it to look like this: { . . . jump_label: ; /* need a statement here! */ } o TCC has a switch to specify which assembler to look for. By default, it will look for TASM.EXE. If you want to use a different assembler, use -E<
file
name>, as described in the Reference Guide. o When using THELP on an AT&T 6300, be sure to use the /L25 command-line option, as described in the
file
THELP.DOC. o When you use qualified variable names as described on page 57 of the User's Guide you don't need to use the module name to access a variable that is local to a global function. The module name is only needed when you access a static variable or a variable that is local to a static function. o Because of the limited memory available in the Tiny model, it no longer supports graphics functions. o The Version 1.5 graphics drivers (*.BGI) are not compatible with the Version 2.0 graphics library. Use the graphics drivers distributed with Version 2.0. o When used with a Zenith Z-449 card, the BGI autodetection code will always
select
the 640X480 enhanced EGA mode. If you are using the Z-449 with a monitor that is not compatible with this mode, it will be necessary to override the GraphDriver and GraphMode parameters used in the BGI initgraph() call. 4. CORRECTIONS TO THE MANUALS ------------------------------ REFERENCE GUIDE: Page 159 The prototype for the function getdefaultpallette() is incorrect. It should be struct palettetype * far _Cdecl getdefaultpalette( void ); USER'S GUIDE: Page 57 In the section entitled "Qualifying Variable Names," the last sentence should read "...need to type only myfunc.myvar." 66 The directions for compiling the WORDCNT program are incorrect. There is no WORDCNT.PRJ
file
; all you need to do is load the
file
WORDCNT.C into the editor. Once you have done that, the rest of the instructions are correct. 5. ADDITIONAL NOTES -------------------- 5.1 NOTES FOR VERSION 1.0 & 1.5 USERS ------------------------------------- o You must use the Version 2.0 libraries with the 2.0 compilers. o The Integrated Development Environment no longer displays the message "Press any key to return to Turbo C..." when your program terminates. Instead, at the end of your program the User screen is replaced by the Integrated Development Environment. To view the User screen, press Alt-F5 or
select
Alt-R/S. When you are viewing the User screen, pressing any key will return you to the Integrated Development Environment. o A new pseudo-variable has been added. _FLAGS now contains the value of the flags register so you can test the flags at any point in your program. o The ssignal() and gsignal() functions are no longer supported. See the section in this README on how to convert programs that use them. o The cprintf() function now works as documented. It does not translate line-feeds into CR/LF combinations. o Some compatibles had a problem under Version 1.5 because it used interrupt 18H. Version 2.0 does not use this interrupt, so you shouldn't encounter this problem anymore. o The program TCINST.COM in Version 1.0 has been changed to an .EXE
file
. You should delete the TCINST.COM program before trying to run the new TCINST.EXE. Otherwise, MS-DOS will actually run the old one. o The
FILE
structure for streams in Version 1.0 (but not 1.5) has been changed, so that the function tmp
file
() could be implemented. You should recompile any modules that use stream I/O. 5.2 THELP ---------- THELP is a memory-resident utility program that gives you access to the Turbo C context-sensitive help system from any program. You don't need to use THELP if you're in the Integrated Development Environment, but it is especially useful if you use the command line compiler and your own text editor, or if you are debugging with the standalone Turbo Debugger. To use THELP, load THELP.COM into memory by typing at the DOS command line: thelp You activate ("pop-up") THELP by typing its hot key -- by default numeric keypad <5>. All Turbo C help commands apply (F1, Ctrl-F1, Alt-F1). For a complete description of THELP, refer to THELP.DOC in the Documentation Subdirectory. 5.3 USING CINSTXFR.EXE ---------------------- Your Turbo C 2.0 package contains a program named CINSTXFR.EXE, which can be used to transfer the configuration of the Integrated Development Environment from your copy of Turbo C 1.5 (not for 1.0) to your new installation of Turbo C 2.0. This program is run automatically by INSTALL.EXE if you
select
the option to "Update Hard Drive Copy of Turbo C 1.5 to Turbo C 2.0." If you prefer to do this yourself, you can run CINSTXFR.EXE from the DOS command line. CINSTXFR.EXE takes two arguments: the first is the name of your Turbo C 1.5 Integrated Development Environment

(usually TC.EXE), and the second is the name of your Turbo C 2.0 Integrated Development Environment
file
(also usually TC.EXE). Either one of these names can also include a path name. For example, if your copy of the Turbo C 1.5 Integrated Development Environment
file
is named TC.EXE and is in a directory named \TURBOC and your copy of the Turbo C 2.0 Integrated Development Environment
file
is also named TC.EXE but is located in a directory named \TC2, the command line to copy the configuration from 1.5 to 2.0 would look like this: CINSTXFR \TURBOC\TC.EXE \TC2\TC.EXE This will transfer all the options that you installed in your copy of Turbo C 1.5 to your copy of Turbo C 2.0. CINSTXFR.EXE does not work with Turbo C 1.0. If you are upgrading from Turbo C 1.0, you will have to install the options yourself. 5.4 CHANGED SWITCHES FOR OBJXREF -------------------------------- OBJXREF is an object module cross reference utility and is described on page 528 of the Turbo C Reference Guide. The /O option (object
file
s directory) has been changed to the /D (directories) option. The switch now allows for multiple search directories to be specified. The new syntax is: OBJXREF /Ddir1[;dir2[;dir3]] or OBJXREF /Ddir1 [/Ddir2] [/Ddir3] OBJXREF will search each of the directories in the specified order for all object and library
file
s. If no /D option is used, only the current directory will be searched. However, if a /D option is used, the current directory will NOT be searched unless it is included in the directory list. For example, to first search the BORLAND directory for
file
s and then search the current directory, you would type OBJXREF /Dborland;. If multiple search directories are specified and a
file
matching the
file
specification is found, OBJXREF will include the
file
as part of the cross-reference. OBJXREF will only continue to search the other directories for the same
file
specification if the
file
specification contains wildcards. A new option has been added to allow you to specify an output
file
where OBJXREF will send any reports generated. The new option is the /O option, and has the following syntax: OBJXREF my
file
.obj /RU /O
file
name.ext By default, all output is sent to the console. 5.5 CONVERSION INFORMATION FOR ssignal() AND gsignal() ------------------------------------------------------ Note: The C library and SIGNAL.H no longer support the ssignal() and gsignal() functions. ssignal() and gsignal() were from the old UNIX System III days. The ANSI standard no longer supports them nor does the current UNIX System V Interface Definition specification. To ease portation problems for people moving older code to Turbo C, we supply the source for the functions that came with TC 1.0 and TC 1.5. Also, the following discussion describes how code can be converted to do the same sort of things that ssignal() and gsignal() do without actually using them. NOTE: The constants defined in SIGNAL.H for SIG_IGN and SIG_DFL are different from the constants that were in TC 1.0 and TC 1.5. By using a globally declared array of function pointers, you can simulate the actions of ssignal() and gsignal() by using the following macros. Notice how the global table entry [0] is used as a temporary variable in the ssignal macro allowing the macro to swap the values and still return the original one. int (*_sigTable[16]) = { SIG_IGN, SIG_IGN, SIG_IGN, SIG_IGN, SIG_IGN, SIG_IGN, SIG_IGN, SIG_IGN, SIG_IGN, SIG_IGN, SIG_IGN, SIG_IGN, SIG_IGN, SIG_IGN, SIG_IGN, SIG_IGN, }; #define ssignal(num, action) \ ( \ (((num) < 1) || ((num) > 15)) ? SIG_DFL : \ ( \ (_sigTable[0] = _sigTable[(num)]), /* List of actions */ \ _sigTable[(num)] = (action), /* The last expression */ \ _sigTable[0] /* is the return value */ \ ) \ ) \ #define gsignal(num) \ ( \ (((num) < 1) || ((num) > 15)) ? 0 : \ ( \ (_sigTable[(num)] == SIG_IGN) ? 1 : \ ( \ (_sigTable[(num)] == SIG_DFL) ? 0 : (*_sigTable[(num)])() \ ) \ ) \ ) \ 6. NOTES FOR TURBO PROLOG USERS -------------------------------- o If you are linking C code with programs generated by Turbo Prolog 2.0, use the
file
INIT.OBJ provided on the EXAMPLES/BGI/MISC disk of the Turbo C 2.0 package instead of the
file
provided with Turbo Prolog 2.0. There have been some changes made in Turbo C 2.0 that require the use of this new
file
. o If your C code uses floating point math and you link with the emulator library, Prolog will not automatically detect a math coprocessor chip. If you want to force the program to use the coprocessor, link it with FP87.LIB instead of EMU.LIB. 7.
