Product Details

Xceed Zip for .NETis the most advanced and reliable .NET / ASP.NET data compression component on the market, designed to fulfill any data compression need.

Continuing a tradition of quickly incorporating the latest Zip and compression standards, Xceed Zip for .NETnow features WinZip 12 compatibility by supporting the LZMA algorithm; UTF-8 character encoding in headers is also provided for improved support of international characters in filenames and comments. It is the only product to offer such capabilities. Such timely enhancements to our libraries ensure that developers can respond quickly to changes in the industry and keep a step ahead of their competition.

Furthermore, the 15-year track record of our Zip product line means that Xceed Zip for .NET is the most stable data manipulation library of its kind, letting developers create robust applications that can be counted on. In fact, Microsoft trusted it enough to choose it to implement part of its Windows Home Server product.

And because it’s powered by the Xceed FileSystem Core, developers get built-in solutions for other areas, making it the only multi-talented Zip component on the market. The Xceed FileSystem Core lets their code manipulate files and folders anywhere: in Zip and Tar archives, in GZip files, via secure FTP (including through HTTP proxy servers), in streams, in memory. It even optimizes operations such as accessing a file located in a Zip file on a remote FTP server, yet uses astonishingly low bandwidth—something no other .NET component or group of components can accomplish. This intuitive object model makes working with compressed or remote files and folders as easy as working with local ones.

Xceed Zip for .NETis also the only managed library to offer such advanced Zip features: split/spanned files, flexible memory operations, PPMd, BZip2, BWT, and Deflate64™ compression methods, the 64-bit Zip64 zip file format (used by PKZIP 4.5+), file/folder synchronization, self-extraction, and secure, industry-standard, WinZip-compatible AES encryption.

Written in 100%-managed C# code and supporting VB.NET and C#, this industry-defining library includes useful sample applications. Its classes fully integrate with the .NET Framework and offer comprehensive Visual Studio-style documentation.

Xceed Zip for .NET is available through a subscription that delivers much more than a perpetual license for versions received during the subscription. The subscription also provides an entire year of these great services: expert, priority support and access to new versions, new features, and bug fixes. Additional years can be added at a discounted price at the time of purchase or before the subscription expires; a new subscription is required after it has expired. Choosing the Blueprint subscription adds the full C# source

Xceed's products can be tried out with a fully functional 45-day trial and come with a 60-day money-back guarantee.
