ZIP a specific directory.

I hacked at a solution for this today, but ended up with a new problem...

This code requires PHP 5. Save it as MY_Zip.php, into application/libraries:

Code:

class MY_Zip extends CI_Zip {

    function My_Zip()
    {
        parent::CI_Zip();
    }


    function read_dir($path)
    {
        $objects = new RecursiveIteratorIterator(new RecursiveDirectoryIterator($path), RecursiveIteratorIterator::SELF_FIRST);
        foreach($objects as $name => $object)
        {

            //echo $objects->getDepth() .": $name<br />";  // uncomment for troubleshooting

            if (FALSE !== ($data = file_get_contents($name)) && $objects->getDepth() >=0 )  // prevent moving up to parent directories
            {
                $this->add_data($name, $data);
            }
        }

        return TRUE;
    }
}

When I uncomment the "echo" line above, the readout looks good.

Then, I enable the $this->zip->download in my controller, and give the download a try... a ZIP file shows up, but upon unzipping, it has this extension:

.zip.cpgz

This file, in turn, "unzips" to a zip, and back and forth and so on.

Any ideas?

thanks,
