The zip entry contains information about the file name size, compressed size, Crc, etc. It includes support for Stored and Deflated entries.

Example

This sample shows how to read a zip file

[C#]
using System;
using System.Text;
using System.IO;

using ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.Zip;

class MainClass
{
    public static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        using ( ZipInputStream s = new ZipInputStream(File.OpenRead(args[0]))) {

            ZipEntry theEntry;
            while ((theEntry = s.GetNextEntry()) != null) {
                int size = 2048;
                byte[] data = new byte[2048];

                Console.Write("Show contents (y/n) ?");
                if (Console.ReadLine() == "y") {
                    while (true) {
                        size = s.Read(data, 0, data.Length);
                        if (size > 0) {
                            Console.Write(new ASCIIEncoding().GetString(data, 0, size));
                        } else {
                            break;
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
