Add 7zip support
Add 7zip support
Hi Igor,
I have another request. Should be easy ...
Can you add the open source 7zip compression support (read/write) to your programs? It is becoming more and more the standard. All mozilla distributions f.e. are packed by it.
I think you only need to add the open source file and support it in your archive file, right?
Zip's compression really doesn't cut it any more.
Thanks.

It doesn't use library - SynchronizeIt can use any archive with command line tools. Currently configuration is only available through special file: wndsync.arc. You should already have it.
Add following section:
and under [Ext] section.
Also, you better get latest build from http://www.grigsoft.com/wndsyncb.zip - I did some changes to support it correctly.
Add following section:
Code: Select all
[7zip]
ext=7z
p=J:\Program Files\7-Zip\7za.exe
u=J:\Program Files\7-Zip\7za.exe
list=%u l -r %A
lstart=------
lend=------
lformat=yy-mm-dd|hh:mm:ss|X|L|X|N!
add=%p a -r %A %F
delete=%p d %A %F
get=%u e -y %A %F
Code: Select all
7z=7Zip

Thank you.
May I suggest to start a "Tips & Tricks" Forum, where you can collect the tips you give.
I think it would add a lot of value to your users visiting this forum.
They can inform themselves quickly about these gems of wisdom which you give out how to use your programs.
It can also assist you in collecting items that you eventually want to add to an updated help file in your next version.
This advice of yours re. 7zip should definitely be copied into such a thread.
Kind Regards,
Brahman

If you have archiver in the folder with wndsync.exe, try skipping path completely. It should work - if it wont, I can fix this. Also, you have pushed me to idea of some %:\path syntax, so I could replace % with drive letter of the drive where wndsync.exe is.
This can be used in archivers, tools, even in sessions - to keep backup folder on flash.
