Hi, I wonder if there is a boost-friendly API to manage directory structures in archive file formats, like tar, zip & the like? In boost iostreams, there are filters for popular compression formats, like gzip, bzip2 and zip. but these only provide stream compression / decompression - and rightfully so. In boost filesystem, one has a portable API for traversing file system directory structures, which is very nice. But I'm not aware of a boost-friendly API that would allow traversing in & managing directory structure & multiple files in archive formats, such as tar & zip. of course there are C libraries, such as libtar or zlib, or ziplib, but these are all C libraries. What I would be looking for is a way to list files & directories in an archive, extract specific files from an archive, and put files into an archive, in a nice, boost-like C++ way. Is there something like this available? Akos
