Usage

LhaLib is a ruby module, that only contains one method named 'x'.

require 'lhalib'
# simpl extraction
LhaLib::x('lharchive.lzh')

• retrun value: number of extracted files.

require 'lhalib'
# fetching the information about extracted file or directory
LhaLib::x('lharchive.lzh') do |info|
  puts "name=#{info[:name]}"
  puts "filesize=#{info[:original_size]}"
  puts "timestamp=#{info[:stamp]}"
  puts "permission=#{info[:permission] & 0777}"
  if (info[:permission] & 040000) != 0
    puts 'directory'
  end
end

• retrun value: number of extracted files.
• block: called by LhaLib after extracting a file or directry.
• blck parameter: Hash of the header information.

Notice

The thread safety of Ruby is broken with a block parameter. If you need to keep the Ruby level thread safety, call the method without block parameter.

I thanks for the original LHa effort by Mr. Tagawa, Mr. Oki, Mr. Watazaki et al.
