In which case, rather than inflating the data, just skip the number of bytes indicated by the compressed size field (LOCSIZ), and you should find a data descriptor, then another header (not necessarily another local file header; the last file will be followed by a central directory header). But for listing, you're probably better off just listing the central directory, which is found at the end of the file. This will work even if there is other data at the beginning of the file (e.g. self-extracting EXEs have the EXE portion at the beginning of the file and the ZIP data at the end). I found the unzip source code to be rather messy, due to all of the platform-specific sections. You might be better off referring to the format specification at: http://www.pkware.com/documents/casestudies/APPNOTE.TXT -- Glynn Clements <glynn@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-c-programming" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
