DotNetZip: How to extract files, but ignoring the path in the zipfile?

c#, dotnetzip, zip

Solution

You'll need to remove the directory part of the filename just prior to unzipping...

using (var zf = Ionic.Zip.ZipFile.Read(zipPath))
{
    zf.ToList().ForEach(entry =>
    {
        entry.FileName = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(entry.FileName);
        entry.Extract(appPath);
    });
}

Problem

Trying to extract files to a given folder ignoring the path in the zipfile but there doesn't seem to be a way. This seems a fairly basic requirement given all the other good stuff implemented in there. What am i missing ? code is - ``` using (Ionic.Zip.ZipFile zf = Ionic.Zip.ZipFile.Read(zipPath)) { zf.ExtractAll(appPath); } ```
