Hello All,

Can anyone let me know about archive (Zip),archive (Tar) adapters in brief with simple example?

Attached is an example of putting data into and getting data from .ZIP archives.

It is worth mentioning that the ZIP adapter is best suited to smaller archives ( < 100MB ) and with larger data, better memory usage and overall performance can be had using either the Batch or Shell Script adapters and a command line archiving tool.

Thank-you.

In my 'Image2Archive' map, you can see that I have ysed a PUT() rule to call the ZIP adapter:

=PUT("ZIP","MEMORY,Test.zip,Image1.bmp",In1)

See if you can work out what needs to be copied from this rule into the output card's Command box, to get this working on a card level.  What would the new rule become?

I look forward to everybody's participation in this.

Thank-you.

Hi Paul,

I am using the ZIP adaptor command within GET function in Map Rule  to zip or unzip the file.

Eg : GET("ZIP", "Filename.zip, file.txt") ...This command is extracting the file.txt from Input file -  Filename.zip.

It is working fine in Windows.

But when the mapper is deployed via Message Broker, file is not getting  zipped or unzipped in Mainframe.It is not extracting the file from the zipped Input.

Please suggest. Thanks
