XbZLib can't encrypt or decrypt zip files (yet). There are several different ways to encrypt/decrypt files in zip archives, some of which are actually proprietary and/or patented, and I don't have the complete/exact specs on how the different encrypting/decrypting processes are done. If you want to add any specific encryption/decryption method(s) or any other updates, like Zip64 format or compression methods other than the existing deflate (and store) methods to the XbZLib class, you can do that, as you do have access to the source code. If you do make improvements to the code, please make it available to the rest of the Xbase++ community, too.

César,

>Maybe some body could make encrypt (or decrypt) any files with XbZLib.

XbZLib can't encrypt or decrypt zip files (yet). There are several different 
ways to encrypt/decrypt files in zip archives, some of which are actually 
proprietary and/or patented, and I don't have the complete/exact specs on 
how the different encrypting/decrypting processes are done.

If you want to add any specific encryption/decryption method(s) or any other 
updates, like Zip64 format or compression methods other than the existing 
deflate (and store) methods to the XbZLib class, you can do that, as you do 
have access to the source code. If you do make improvements to the code, 
please make it available to the rest of the Xbase++ community, too.

Hope that helps,

Andreas
