zipSize (Function)

In french: zipTaille

Returns the size of the archive (in ZIP, RAR, CAB, WDZ, 7z, gzip, TAR or TGZ (TAR.GZ) format):

the size of all compressed files found in the archive.
the size of all files found in the archive before compression.

When extracting files from an archive, we recommend that you calculate the size of all the files before compression in order to check that you have enough disk space.

Reminder:

Only archives in ZIP, gzip, TAR and TGZ (TAR.GZ) formats are available.
Only ZIP archives are available.

New in version 2025

The gzip format (.gz extension) is now supported.

// Taille de l'archive ouverte
IF ResOuvreArchive = 0 THEN
	ResTailleArchive = zipSize(MonArchive)
	...
END
