|

I am looking for a compression component like zip that can compress files
into a file but can load the files via streams without having to extract the
file to disk first. Any recommendation as to which compression and component
to use for this function is greatly appreciated. Hopefully, the speed of
loading of files via streams with huge compressed files is not impaired.
Thanks in advance.

Zipforge does it to memory without extracting the files to disk, you
could try that.

I quite like VCLZip. I've been using it for awhile with streams, in my case
loading and saving compressed data to a database BLOB file.

TZipMaster (open source) can also do this.
