Okay I need to stream info from files inside of a ZIP into my program. Can someone either point me to an article/tutorial or give me a code snippet here that would get me going in the right direction. I don't want to use someone's premade library though, I want to code it myself. Edited by - Dustino on February 24, 2002 8:26:36 PM

There''s a recent tutorial series at flipcode regarding virtual file systems that might help get you started.

Writing your own ZIP decompressor is not easy, you may wanna try ZLib that does just that - http://www.gzip.org/zlib/
It contains source code too.
