- 1 - Introduction
- ================
-
- PclZip is a library that allow you to manage a Zip archive.
-
- Full documentation about PclZip can be found here : http://www.phpconcept.net/pclzip
-
- 2 - What's new
- ==============
-
- Version 2.8.2 :
- - PCLZIP_CB_PRE_EXTRACT and PCLZIP_CB_POST_EXTRACT are now supported with
- extraction as a string (PCLZIP_OPT_EXTRACT_AS_STRING). The string
- can also be modified in the post-extract call back.
- **Bugs correction :
- - PCLZIP_OPT_REMOVE_ALL_PATH was not working correctly
- - Remove use of eval() and do direct call to callback functions
- - Correct support of 64bits systems (Thanks to WordPress team)
-
- Version 2.8.1 :
- - Move option PCLZIP_OPT_BY_EREG to PCLZIP_OPT_BY_PREG because ereg() is
- deprecated in PHP 5.3. When using option PCLZIP_OPT_BY_EREG, PclZip will
- automatically replace it by PCLZIP_OPT_BY_PREG.
-
- Version 2.8 :
- - Improve extraction of zip archive for large files by using temporary files
- This feature is working like the one defined in r2.7.
- Options are renamed : PCLZIP_OPT_TEMP_FILE_ON, PCLZIP_OPT_TEMP_FILE_OFF,
- PCLZIP_OPT_TEMP_FILE_THRESHOLD
- - Add a ratio constant PCLZIP_TEMPORARY_FILE_RATIO to configure the auto
- sense of temporary file use.
- - Bug correction : Reduce filepath in returned file list to remove ennoying
- './/' preambule in file path.
-
- Version 2.7 :
- - Improve creation of zip archive for large files :
- PclZip will now autosense the configured memory and use temporary files
- when large file is suspected.
- This feature can also ne triggered by manual options in create() and add()
- methods. 'PCLZIP_OPT_ADD_TEMP_FILE_ON' force the use of temporary files,
- 'PCLZIP_OPT_ADD_TEMP_FILE_OFF' disable the autosense technic,
- 'PCLZIP_OPT_ADD_TEMP_FILE_THRESHOLD' allow for configuration of a size
- threshold to use temporary files.
- Using "temporary files" rather than "memory" might take more time, but
- might give the ability to zip very large files :
- Tested on my win laptop with a 88Mo file :
- Zip "in-memory" : 18sec (max_execution_time=30, memory_limit=180Mo)
- Zip "tmporary-files" : 23sec (max_execution_time=30, memory_limit=30Mo)
- - Replace use of mktime() by time() to limit the E_STRICT error messages.
- - Bug correction : When adding files with full windows path (drive letter)
- PclZip is now working. Before, if the drive letter is not the default
- path, PclZip was not able to add the file.
-
- Version 2.6 :
- - Code optimisation
- - New attributes PCLZIP_ATT_FILE_COMMENT gives the ability to
- add a comment for a specific file. (Don't really know if this is usefull)
- - New attribute PCLZIP_ATT_FILE_CONTENT gives the ability to add a string
- as a file.
- - New attribute PCLZIP_ATT_FILE_MTIME modify the timestamp associated with
- a file.
- - Correct a bug. Files archived with a timestamp with 0h0m0s were extracted
- with current time
- - Add CRC value in the informations returned back for each file after an
- action.
- - Add missing closedir() statement.
- - When adding a folder, and removing the path of this folder, files were
- incorrectly added with a '/' at the beginning. Which means files are
- related to root in unix systems. Corrected.
- - Add conditional if before constant definition. This will allow users
- to redefine constants without changing the file, and then improve
- upgrade of pclzip code for new versions.
-
- Version 2.5 :
- - Introduce the ability to add file/folder with individual properties (file descriptor).
- This gives for example the ability to change the filename of a zipped file.
- . Able to add files individually
- . Able to change full name
- . Able to change short name
- . Compatible with global options
- - New attributes : PCLZIP_ATT_FILE_NAME, PCLZIP_ATT_FILE_NEW_SHORT_NAME, PCLZIP_ATT_FILE_NEW_FULL_NAME
- - New error code : PCLZIP_ERR_INVALID_ATTRIBUTE_VALUE
- - Add a security control feature. PclZip can extract any file in any folder
- of a system. People may use this to upload a zip file and try to override
- a system file. The PCLZIP_OPT_EXTRACT_DIR_RESTRICTION will give the
- ability to forgive any directory transversal behavior.
- - New PCLZIP_OPT_EXTRACT_DIR_RESTRICTION : check extraction path
- - New error code : PCLZIP_ERR_DIRECTORY_RESTRICTION
- - Modification in PclZipUtilPathInclusion() : dir and path beginning with ./ will be prepend
- by current path (getcwd())
-
- Version 2.4 :
- - Code improvment : try to speed up the code by removing unusefull call to pack()
- - Correct bug in delete() : delete() should be called with no argument. This was not
- the case in 2.3. This is corrected in 2.4.
- - Correct a bug in path_inclusion function. When the path has several '../../', the
- result was bad.
- - Add a check for magic_quotes_runtime configuration. If enabled, PclZip will
- disable it while working and det it back to its original value.
- This resolve a lots of bad formated archive errors.
- - Bug correction : PclZip now correctly unzip file in some specific situation,
- when compressed content has same size as uncompressed content.
- - Bug correction : When selecting option 'PCLZIP_OPT_REMOVE_ALL_PATH',
- directories are not any more created.
- - Code improvment : correct unclosed opendir(), better handling of . and .. in
- loops.
-
-
- Version 2.3 :
- - Correct a bug with PHP5 : affecting the value 0xFE49FFE0 to a variable does not
- give the same result in PHP4 and PHP5 ....
-
- Version 2.2 :
- - Try development of PCLZIP_OPT_CRYPT .....
- However this becomes to a stop. To crypt/decrypt I need to multiply 2 long integers,
- the result (greater than a long) is not supported by PHP. Even the use of bcmath
- functions does not help. I did not find yet a solution ...;
- - Add missing '/' at end of directory entries
- - Check is a file is encrypted or not. Returns status 'unsupported_encryption' and/or
- error code PCLZIP_ERR_UNSUPPORTED_ENCRYPTION.
- - Corrected : Bad "version need to extract" field in local file header
- - Add private method privCheckFileHeaders() in order to check local and central
- file headers. PclZip is now supporting purpose bit flag bit 3. Purpose bit flag bit 3 gives
- the ability to have a local file header without size, compressed size and crc filled.
- - Add a generic status 'error' for file status
- - Add control of compression type. PclZip only support deflate compression method.
- Before v2.2, PclZip does not check the compression method used in an archive while
- extracting. With v2.2 PclZip returns a new error status for a file using an unsupported
- compression method. New status is "unsupported_compression". New error code is
- PCLZIP_ERR_UNSUPPORTED_COMPRESSION.
- - Add optional attribute PCLZIP_OPT_STOP_ON_ERROR. This will stop the extract of files
- when errors like 'a folder with same name exists' or 'a newer file exists' or
- 'a write protected file' exists, rather than set a status for the concerning file
- and resume the extract of the zip.
- - Add optional attribute PCLZIP_OPT_REPLACE_NEWER. This will force, during an extract' the
- replacement of the file, even if a newer version of the file exists.
- Note that today if a file with the same name already exists but is older it will be
- replaced by the extracted one.
- - Improve PclZipUtilOption()
- - Support of zip archive with trailing bytes. Before 2.2, PclZip checks that the central
- directory structure is the last data in the archive. Crypt encryption/decryption of
- zip archive put trailing 0 bytes after decryption. PclZip is now supporting this.
-
- Version 2.1 :
- - Add the ability to abort the extraction by using a user callback function.
- The user can now return the value '2' in its callback which indicates to stop the
- extraction. For a pre call-back extract is stopped before the extration of the current
- file. For a post call back, the extraction is stopped after.
- - Add the ability to extract a file (or several files) directly in the standard output.
- This is done by the new parameter PCLZIP_OPT_EXTRACT_IN_OUTPUT with method extract().
- - Add support for parameters PCLZIP_OPT_COMMENT, PCLZIP_OPT_ADD_COMMENT,
- PCLZIP_OPT_PREPEND_COMMENT. This will create, replace, add, or prepend comments
- in the zip archive.
- - When merging two archives, the comments are not any more lost, but merged, with a
- blank space separator.
- - Corrected bug : Files are not deleted when all files are asked to be deleted.
- - Corrected bug : Folders with name '0' made PclZip to abort the create or add feature.
-
-
- Version 2.0 :
- ***** Warning : Some new features may break the backward compatibility for your scripts.
- Please carefully read the readme file.
- - Add the ability to delete by Index, name and regular expression. This feature is
- performed by the method delete(), which uses the optional parameters
- PCLZIP_OPT_BY_INDEX, PCLZIP_OPT_BY_NAME, PCLZIP_OPT_BY_EREG or PCLZIP_OPT_BY_PREG.
- - Add the ability to extract by regular expression. To extract by regexp you must use the method
- extract(), with the option PCLZIP_OPT_BY_EREG or PCLZIP_OPT_BY_PREG
- (depending if you want to use ereg() or preg_match() syntax) followed by the
- regular expression pattern.
- - Add the ability to extract by index, directly with the extract() method. This is a
- code improvment of the extractByIndex() method.
- - Add the ability to extract by name. To extract by name you must use the method
- extract(), with the option PCLZIP_OPT_BY_NAME followed by the filename to
- extract or an array of filenames to extract. To extract all a folder, use the folder
- name rather than the filename with a '/' at the end.
- - Add the ability to add files without compression. This is done with a new attribute
- which is PCLZIP_OPT_NO_COMPRESSION.
- - Add the attribute PCLZIP_OPT_EXTRACT_AS_STRING, which allow to extract a file directly
- in a string without using any file (or temporary file).
- - Add constant PCLZIP_SEPARATOR for static configuration of filename separators in a single string.
- The default separator is now a comma (,) and not any more a blank space.
- THIS BREAK THE BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY : Please check if this may have an impact with
- your script.
- - Improve algorythm performance by removing the use of temporary files when adding or
- extracting files in an archive.
- - Add (correct) detection of empty filename zipping. This can occurs when the removed
- path is the same
- as a zipped dir. The dir is not zipped (['status'] = filtered), only its content.
- - Add better support for windows paths (thanks for help from [email protected]).
- - Corrected bug : When the archive file already exists with size=0, the add() method
- fails. Corrected in 2.0.
- - Remove the use of OS_WINDOWS constant. Use php_uname() function rather.
- - Control the order of index ranges in extract by index feature.
- - Change the internal management of folders (better handling of internal flag).
-
-
- Version 1.3 :
- - Removing the double include check. This is now done by include_once() and require_once()
- PHP directives.
- - Changing the error handling mecanism : Remove the use of an external error library.
- The former PclError...() functions are replaced by internal equivalent methods.
- By changing the environment variable PCLZIP_ERROR_EXTERNAL you can still use the former library.
- Introducing the use of constants for error codes rather than integer values. This will help
- in futur improvment.
- Introduction of error handling functions like errorCode(), errorName() and errorInfo().
- - Remove the deprecated use of calling function with arguments passed by reference.
- - Add the calling of extract(), extractByIndex(), create() and add() functions
- with variable options rather than fixed arguments.
- - Add the ability to remove all the file path while extracting or adding,
- without any need to specify the path to remove.
- This is available for extract(), extractByIndex(), create() and add() functionS by using
- the new variable options parameters :
- - PCLZIP_OPT_REMOVE_ALL_PATH : by indicating this option while calling the fct.
- - Ability to change the mode of a file after the extraction (chmod()).
- This is available for extract() and extractByIndex() functionS by using
- the new variable options parameters.
- - PCLZIP_OPT_SET_CHMOD : by setting the value of this option.
- - Ability to definition call-back options. These call-back will be called during the adding,
- or the extracting of file (extract(), extractByIndex(), create() and add() functions) :
- - PCLZIP_CB_PRE_EXTRACT : will be called before each extraction of a file. The user
- can trigerred the change the filename of the extracted file. The user can triggered the
- skip of the extraction. This is adding a 'skipped' status in the file list result value.
- - PCLZIP_CB_POST_EXTRACT : will be called after each extraction of a file.
- Nothing can be triggered from that point.
- - PCLZIP_CB_PRE_ADD : will be called before each add of a file. The user
- can trigerred the change the stored filename of the added file. The user can triggered the
- skip of the add. This is adding a 'skipped' status in the file list result value.
- - PCLZIP_CB_POST_ADD : will be called after each add of a file.
- Nothing can be triggered from that point.
- - Two status are added in the file list returned as function result : skipped & filename_too_long
- 'skipped' is used when a call-back function ask for skipping the file.
- 'filename_too_long' is used while adding a file with a too long filename to archive (the file is
- not added)
- - Adding the function PclZipUtilPathInclusion(), that check the inclusion of a path into
- a directory.
- - Add a check of the presence of the archive file before some actions (like list, ...)
- - Add the initialisation of field "index" in header array. This means that by
- default index will be -1 when not explicitly set by the methods.
-
- Version 1.2 :
- - Adding a duplicate function.
- - Adding a merge function. The merge function is a "quick merge" function,
- it just append the content of an archive at the end of the first one. There
- is no check for duplicate files or more recent files.
- - Improve the search of the central directory end.
-
- Version 1.1.2 :
-
- - Changing the license of PclZip. PclZip is now released under the GNU / LGPL license
- (see License section).
- - Adding the optional support of a static temporary directory. You will need to configure
- the constant PCLZIP_TEMPORARY_DIR if you want to use this feature.
- - Improving the rename() function. In some cases rename() does not work (different
- Filesystems), so it will be replaced by a copy() + unlink() functions.
-
- Version 1.1.1 :
-
- - Maintenance release, no new feature.
-
- Version 1.1 :
-
- - New method Add() : adding files in the archive
- - New method ExtractByIndex() : partial extract of the archive, files are identified by
- their index in the archive
- - New method DeleteByIndex() : delete some files/folder entries from the archive,
- files are identified by their index in the archive.
- - Adding a test of the zlib extension presence. If not present abort the script.
-
- Version 1.0.1 :
-
- - No new feature
-
-
- 3 - Corrected bugs
- ==================
-
- Corrected in Version 2.0 :
- - Corrected : During an extraction, if a call-back fucntion is used and try to skip
- a file, all the extraction process is stopped.
-
- Corrected in Version 1.3 :
- - Corrected : Support of static synopsis for method extract() is broken.
- - Corrected : invalid size of archive content field (0xFF) should be (0xFFFF).
- - Corrected : When an extract is done with a remove_path parameter, the entry for
- the directory with exactly the same path is not skipped/filtered.
- - Corrected : extractByIndex() and deleteByIndex() were not managing index in the
- right way. For example indexes '1,3-5,11' will only extract files 1 and 11. This
- is due to a sort of the index resulting table that puts 11 before 3-5 (sort on
- string and not interger). The sort is temporarilly removed, this means that
- you must provide a sorted list of index ranges.
-
- Corrected in Version 1.2 :
-
- - Nothing.
-
- Corrected in Version 1.1.2 :
-
- - Corrected : Winzip is unable to delete or add new files in a PclZip created archives.
-
- Corrected in Version 1.1.1 :
-
- - Corrected : When archived file is not compressed (0% compression), the
- extract method fails.
-
- Corrected in Version 1.1 :
-
- - Corrected : Adding a complete tree of folder may result in a bad archive
- creation.
-
- Corrected in Version 1.0.1 :
-
- - Corrected : Error while compressing files greater than PCLZIP_READ_BLOCK_SIZE (default=1024).
-
-
- 4 - Known bugs or limitations
- =============================
-
- Please publish bugs reports in SourceForge :
- http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=40254&atid=427564
-
- In Version 2.x :
- - PclZip does only support file uncompressed or compressed with deflate (compression method 8)
- - PclZip does not support password protected zip archive
- - Some concern were seen when changing mtime of a file while archiving.
- Seems to be linked to Daylight Saving Time (PclTest_changing_mtime).
-
- In Version 1.2 :
-
- - merge() methods does not check for duplicate files or last date of modifications.
-
- In Version 1.1 :
-
- - Limitation : Using 'extract' fields in the file header in the zip archive is not supported.
- - WinZip is unable to delete a single file in a PclZip created archive. It is also unable to
- add a file in a PclZip created archive. (Corrected in v.1.2)
-
- In Version 1.0.1 :
-
- - Adding a complete tree of folder may result in a bad archive
- creation. (Corrected in V.1.1).
- - Path given to methods must be in the unix format (/) and not the Windows format (\).
- Workaround : Use only / directory separators.
- - PclZip is using temporary files that are sometime the name of the file with a .tmp or .gz
- added suffix. Files with these names may already exist and may be overwritten.
- Workaround : none.
- - PclZip does not check if the zlib extension is present. If it is absent, the zip
- file is not created and the lib abort without warning.
- Workaround : enable the zlib extension on the php install
-
- In Version 1.0 :
-
- - Error while compressing files greater than PCLZIP_READ_BLOCK_SIZE (default=1024).
- (Corrected in v.1.0.1)
- - Limitation : Multi-disk zip archive are not supported.
