BATCH-BOT ZIP FILES [V23.04.30. 27.00]

Previous Page

This "CHT Batch Bot", HNDZIPNET.EXE is a command-line zip tool which can zip files alone or in bulk using a DOS-style file mask (eg: • .app) to describe the files to be zipped. The application can be called from one of your Clarion applications, a Windows batch file or a Windows .VBS script to provide reliable single and multi file zipping services.

HNDZIPNET.EXE source code, because it is in Clarion .APP format, is included as a standard part of the CHT toolkit, provided both in .APP format as well as ready-to-run, in .EXE format.

HNDZIPNET.EXE is dependent on one CHT DLL being present and visible on the system path, namely: HNDNETZIPPER.DLL.

The application communicates to this DLL via COM requiring the HNDNETZIPPER.DLL to be registered on the host system. The DLL will auto-register on the host system when first called and found not to be registered. Auto-registration can only be performed from an "admin" account.
