I’m trying to find a library to be able to simply extract files from a .zip archive.
Could you please advise me what library to use (and how to set it up, which files to include)?
I’m a beginner in C++ and I’m programming on Win32 using Visual Studio 10.
zLib is your best bet. It can be found here: zLib website.
Look in the
contrib\vstudiofolder for the visual studio projects. The easiest way to use it, is via minizip, located in thecontrib\minizipfolder.
