can't update zipex

I can't seem to figure out what the zipex.lib file is derived from (for the c++ version of nuclex). Any protips?

It's my Own Zip Extraction Library

ZipEx is my own library for extracting and streaming data from .zip archives.

You can browse the sources online here:
https://devel.nuclex.org/engine/browser/zipex/trunk

If you want to download the sources, point your SVN client to:
https://devel.nuclex.org/engine/svn/zipex/trunk/

Reason for this library to exist is that the zip extraction code in the contrib directory of zlib seemed to be of fairly low quality and zziplib didn't look like a reliable piece of work, either, so I rolled my own ;)

Thanks a ton, hopefully this

Thanks a ton, hopefully this will let me take a few more steps down the rabbit hole I've dug myself.

Also thanks for the response on the nuclex main page, once I have updated copies of all the files together and building properly in vc2k8 it's time to start exploring getting it to build using CMake in a linux/mac environment (nature of the beast in academic settings).

Again, thanks a ton for the help hopefully I can use this to put together something compelling for the boss.
