Archive a folder in Java using truezip

Question

I need to create a service that finds specific folders and archives them into on zip file.

I saw all kind of examples , but it seems that have to read all the files in every folder. Am I right?

Is there another way to do that (maybe using truezip for that matter)?

I want to use truezip since I understood you could easily add files/folders to a zip file.

I've searched for a simple example of archiving a folder using truezip - but I couldn't find anything useful - I need a simple example of how to archive a given folder .

Using TrueZIP, all you need to call is

new TFile("folder").cp_rp(new TFile("archive.zip"));
