Description: ------------ I need to create empty directories inside of a zip archive. However it seems that it is impossible. I've spent quite a lot of time on trying to resolve it, I'd appreciate if anyone could tell me how to do it... it seems that it is impossible at this moment. Test script: --------------- //create single file in subdirectory works: $targetFile = "test.zip"; require_once "File/Archive.php"; $innerWriter = File_Archive::toFiles(); $dest = File_Archive::toArchive($targetFile, $innerWriter); $dest->newFile("path/to/subdirectory/file.txt"); $dest->writeData("test"); $dest->close(); //but create single empty directory doesn't: $targetFile = "test.zip"; require_once "File/Archive.php"; $innerWriter = File_Archive::toFiles(); $dest = File_Archive::toArchive($targetFile, $innerWriter); $dest->newFile("path/to/subdirectory/"); $dest->close(); Expected result: ---------------- create a test.zip file with an empty directory structure in it Actual result: -------------- empty archive
