		<description><![CDATA[<h3>The GZipStream class</h3>
<p>Before .NET Framework 2.0 if you wanted to compress files you had to use a 3rd party library capable of doing that. In the new version there is a new namespace: <strong>System.IO.Compression</strong> that contains the <strong>GZipStream</strong> class. The <strong>GZipStream</strong> class has methods allowing us to both compress and decompress a file into a zip archive.</p>
<p>The disadvantage of using the GZipStream class over a 3rd party product is that it has limited capabilities. One of the limitations is that you cannot give a name to the file that you place in the archive. When GZipStream compresses the file into a ZIP archive, it takes the sequence of bytes from that file and uses compression algorithms that create a smaller sequence of bytes. The new sequence of bytes is put into the new ZIP <a id="KonaLink0" class="kLink" href="http://idealprogrammer.com/#" target="undefined" style="position: static; text-decoration: underline !important"><font color="#006837" style="position: static; font-family: Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #006837 !important; font-size: 12px; font-weight: 400"><span class="kLink" style="position: relative; font-family: Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #006837 !important; font-size: 12px; font-weight: 400">file</span></font></a>. When you open the <a id="KonaLink1" class="kLink" href="http://idealprogrammer.com/#" target="undefined" jquery1292321474990="6" style="position: static; text-decoration: underline !important"><font color="#006837" style="position: static; font-family: Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #006837 !important; font-size: 12px; font-weight: 400"><span class="kLink" style="border-bottom: #006837 1px solid; position: relative; background-color: transparent; font-family: Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #006837 !important; font-size: 12px; font-weight: 400">ZIP </span><span class="kLink" style="border-bottom: #006837 1px solid; position: relative; background-color: transparent; font-family: Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #006837 !important; font-size: 12px; font-weight: 400">file</span></font><span id="preLoadWrap1" class="preLoadWrap" style="position: relative"> </span></a>you will open the archived file itself; most popular ZIP extractors (WinZip, WinRar, etc.) will show you the content of the ZIP as a file that has the same as the archive itself:</p>
<p><img alt="WinRar" src="http://idealprogrammer.com/pics/Zipping/WinRar.png" width="465" height="284" /> </p>
<p>This is because the GZipStream class does not specify a file name in the headers, as metadata, since in the specifications of the GZIP file format, declaring a name is optional. This may not bother you if you are using this class to compress files used by your application (such as archiving old documents) and when the usage of the GZipStream class comes just a single piece of the <a id="KonaLink2" class="kLink" href="http://idealprogrammer.com/#" target="undefined" style="position: static; text-decoration: underline !important"><font color="#006837" style="position: static; font-family: Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #006837 !important; font-size: 12px; font-weight: 400"><span class="kLink" style="position: relative; font-family: Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #006837 !important; font-size: 12px; font-weight: 400">puzzle</span></font></a> in a larger application.<br />
On the other hand, if you&#039;re looking to build an application that has the solely purpose of zipping and unzipping files, you will encounter some of GZipStream&#039;s limitations. If you decide to use a 3rd party class library in that case, or if you prefer to stick to GZipStream, is your choice. There is a workaround for giving file names to the ZIPs content by modifying the headers yourself. For information on how to change the headers, please see the MSDN Magazine article entitled <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/05/10/NETMatters/" target="_blank">NamedGZipStream, Covariance and Contravariance</a>.</p>
