SharpCompress Using TreeView & ListView Example

• Download source code - 256.8 KB

Introduction

In this example, I will show you how to get directories in TreeView and files in ListView from .rar or .zip files using SharpCompress.dll library.

For this example, I'm using SplitContainer, on the left side, I use TreeView, on the right side, I use ListView.

When you open a .rar or .zip file, all directories go in TreeView and when you select a directory from TreeView, all files goes in ListView if that directory contains files (like the example below).

Background

Probably this method can work with different library, I haven't tested it.

Using the Code

First import SharpCompress.dll into your project, and use Imports like the example below:

#Region " Imports "
 Option Explicit On
Imports System.IO
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
Imports SharpCompress.Archives
Imports SharpCompress.Common

#End Region

In Form Class, declare this:

Public Class Form1 : Inherits Form

#Region " Declares "
     <System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessage("Code Quality", _
       "IDE0069:Disposable fields should be disposed", Justification:="<Pending>")>
    Private WithEvents Archive As IArchive
    Private szArchivePath As String
    Private ReadOnly listViewItems As New List(Of ListViewItem)()
    Public listViewItem As ListViewItem
    Private ReadOnly _ImgListFileType As New List(Of String)() From {"Empty"}

#End Region

End Class

I create Sub Procedures to use the code easily. In form should look like this:

#Region " Imports "
 ption Explicit On
Imports System.IO
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
Imports SharpCompress.Archives
Imports SharpCompress.Common

#End Region

Public Class Form1 : Inherits Form

#Region " Declares "
     <System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessage("Code Quality", _
      "IDE0069:Disposable fields should be disposed", Justification:="<Pending>")>
    Private WithEvents Archive As IArchive
    Private szArchivePath As String
    Private ReadOnly listViewItems As New List(Of ListViewItem)()
    Public listViewItem As ListViewItem
    Private ReadOnly _ImgListFileType As New List(Of String)() From {"Empty"}

#End Region

#Region " GetFileType "
    ''' <summary>
    ''' Collecting file extension and avoiding duplicate. Example: .exe, .txt, .jpg, etc.
    ''' </summary>
    ''' <param name="GetFrom"></param>

    Private Sub GetFileType(ByVal GetFrom As String, SearchIn As List(Of String))
        If Not SearchIn.Contains(GetFrom) Then
            SearchIn.Add(GetFrom)
            SearchIn.Remove(String.Empty)
        End If
    End Sub
#End Region

#Region " List Icons "
    ''' <summary>
    ''' List icons for each file type.

    Private Sub ListIcons()

                    If InvokeRequired Then
                        Invoke(Sub() ImgListView.Images.Add(iFound, GetFileIcon_

On Button Click Event, I call _OpenRarDlg as New OpenFileDialog to open .rar or .zip file.

On TreeView AfterSelect Event, I call FillListView(LstEntrys). When TreeView Node (Directory) is selected and if that directory contains files, then all files from selected directory will be displayed in ListView.
