Hi all

To save transfer time, some XML data will be sent to my PPC as a zip file.
My questions are

1) Is there native UnZip functionality in dotnet CF? If not, can someone
recommend something?
2) I would prefer some kind of UnzipStream, so that I can use XmlReader with
the zip file instead of extracting it first and working from disk (too much
space used), is this also possible?

Does it have to be Zip?

7 zip provides an sdk that works also for PPC. The size of the files
can be even smaller depending on the compression parameters you set.
This library is GNU.

Hope it helps

Xceed Zip for .NET Compact Framework will let you accomplish what you
need with minimal fuss / coding. It includes a .NET pass-through
stream to make it a snap.
