Hi, When trying to extract zip files created with Archive::Zip using the built in zip functionality of windows xp, I have encountered a problem. The zip file will open, without any error msgs, but the content is empty. I have not been able to find any leads on this one.. Thanks, --Jeff

Hi! Can you supply us with a self-contained Archive::Zip script that creates a zip file that reproduces this problem? Regards, Shlomi Fish Show quoted text

I cannot reproduce this bug using the following script (to be run inside an Archive-Zip installation): <<<<<<<<<<<<<<< #!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use lib "./lib"; use Archive::Zip; my $zip = Archive::Zip->new(); $zip->addFile("t/05_tree.t"); $zip->addFile("Changes"); $zip->writeToFileNamed("test-winxp-exp-zip.zip"); Show quoted text

And the author hasn't reproduced any reproduction for this bug, despite having been prompted two weeks ago. So I'm closing this bug. Regards, Shlomi Fish
