DotNetZip - rename file entry in zip file while compressing

Question

Using DotNetZip, is it possible to compress a file such that the zip lists a different file name for a file than the file name on disk? For example, I want to add myFile.txt to a zip file, but I want it to be called otherFile.txt.

Answer 1

From the DotNetZip FAQ:

Add an entry, overriding its name in the archive

  using (ZipFile zip1 = new ZipFile())   {       zip1.AddFile("myFile.txt").FileName = "otherFile.txt";        zip1.Save(archiveName);   } 

Answer 2

        var zip = new ZipFile(Path.Combine(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop), "test.zip"));         var e = zip.AddFile(Path.Combine(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop), "testfile.pdf"), "/");         e.FileName = "PewPewGotcha.pdf";         zip.Save(); 

Once the ZipFile is saved, the name is updated.
