There have been a few problems getting 0.85.2 out the door involving SMTP servers and failures therein which is frustrating. The release has gone ahead despite this somewhat to my surprise I must confess. You will find the HTML help file is missing from the release currently. It should turn up in a few...

When Zip64 was first introduced the default strategy was to usezip64 extensions if the size of the entry was known and required it, or the size was not known.

You can find a preview come beta at http://www.geocities...

Hi all, As title, may I know whether SharpZipLib is thread-safe? Found that some settings are stored at ZipConstants as static variables, e.g. ZipConstants.DefaultCodePage. Any lock / concurrent mechanism to guarantee the change of this setting would not result in concurrent exception? Thanks and regards...

We recently found an issue with the library when creating very large zip files. When the disk is out of space, a "System.IO.IOException: There is not enough space on the disk" exception is thrown. We have code in our finally block to call ZipOutputStream.Finish() followed by ZipOutputStream.Close() so...
