Hello. Does anyone know how to show the progress of archives extracting, when using chilkat? I already have a progress bar called "progressBar1" on my form. At the moment the whole program freezes when extraction is started. Maybe have another thread? I'm using this code:
Chilkat.Rar rar = new Chilkat.Rar();
bool success;
success = rar.Open("abc123.rar");
if (success != true) {
MessageBox.Show(rar.LastErrorText);
return;
}
success = rar.Unrar("c:/temp/unrarDest/");
if (success != true) {
MessageBox.Show(rar.LastErrorText);
}
else {
MessageBox.Show("Success.");
}
If anyone has any alternative ways to extract .rar files, it would be great to know.
Thanks.
