[gdal-dev] Zip/Unzip

[Even Rouault]

Selon Harsh Govind <harsh.govind at spadac.com>:

cpl_minizip_* is just a copy&paste from the corresponding files from the zlib
source package. So you'll probably find ressources/examples on their site. In
GDAL, we use zlib (gzip) compression & uncompression and zip (pkzip)
uncompression, but not zip compression, which is required to make KMZ from KML.

Otherwise you can look at libkml that has support for both KML and KMZ (and
which uses minizip also for that purpose!)
