C ++：需要有关解密zip文件并将内容提取到内存的帮助

Question

I have this requirement to be addressed. User inputs a encrypted zip file (only zip file is encrypted and not contents inside it) which contains a text file. The function should decrypt the zip file using the password or key provided and then unzip the file to memory as an array of chars and return the pointer to the char.

I went through all the suggestions provided including using Minizip, microzip, zlib. But I am still not clear on what is the best fit for my requirement.

So far I have implemented decrypting the zip file using the password and converting the zip file to a string. I am planning to use this string as an input to zip decompresser and extract it to memory. However, I am not sure if my approach is right. If there are better ways to do it, please provide your suggestions along with your recommendations on the library to use in my C++ application.

Many thanks

Please provide your suggestions.

Answer 1

Most, if not all, of the most popular ZIP tools also support command-line usage. So, if I were you I would just run a system command from your C++ program to unzip and decrypt the file using one of these popular ZIP tools. After the textfile has been unzip'ed and decrypted you can load it from the disk into internal memory to further process it from there. A simple solution, but efficient.

Zero'd on using zlib. This link helped me to do that. Thought of sharing this so that it can help someone. In my case I am using that buffer directly instead of writing to a file. http://www.gamedev.net/reference/articles/article2279.asp
