Using iostream to create ZIP archive

[Peter Json]

Hi,

I'm trying to use boost to create a "zip" file containing more than one
file.

To my understanding I should use boost::iosteams to do this.

In the boost documentation I there is only an example on how to unzip a file
.....
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_37_0/libs/iostreams/doc/classes/zlib.html#examples

... but I dont understand how I could do the opposite (create a zip-archive)
Especially how to do the naming of the files inside the archive.

Does anyone have an example on howto do create a zip-archive containing a
couple of text files?

Thanx
/Peter/

There is a distinction between zlib and zip files.

this was asked and answered before.
