Detailed Description

The ZipWriter component is primarily used to add files to a zip archive. This should ideally be implemented along with ZipReader and ZipFileInfo, as ZipWriter contains no means to read the archive it writes to.

This sample demonstrates usage of the ZipWriter component, giving the user two buttons that open file dialogs; one to define the new or existing zip archive to write to, one to select files to add to it. The ZipReader component is used to display the files as they are added.
