我可以在不使用任何库的情况下（不用.net zip类）在c＃中以编程方式创建zip文件（未压缩）吗？

Question

I was looking to understand the structure of the zip file and thinking of creating my own zip library which will be able to zip some files without any compression. Although there are couple of other libraries already exist in .net and third party also which can do that, but I am looking to do it by my own.

I started reading the structure of the zip document :

Althought it explains me little bit about the zip structure but did anyone already tried to create zip file from the very scratch (ie from bit by bit)

Its not just a question but an open discussion on how to create a zip file bit by bit from your own code in c# (or in other similar language)

Answer 1

There is a GZipStream class in System.IO.Compression that allows to zip streams using Gzip. As far as I know this is the only class for compression in the BCL .
