Writing a Zipfile

Hello Team,

I need to make the update process inside a existing zipfile.

The zipfile contain a shapefile and i would like to create a CSV file inside this Zipfile.

When i execute my Workspace the FME included the CSV file inside Zipfile, but the other data ( Shapefile ) is deleted.

My problem: How can i just include more file in Zipfile without delete others files included before?

Version of FME Desktop: 2016.1.3.1 ( Build 16716 ).

Attached my Workspace.

Thanks in Advance,

You could use the FileCopy writer to write the existing files (copy them) and have both the FileCopy writer and CSV writer write to the same ZIP file.

I believe that should work (I tested it on a my machine)..

Hi @danilo_inovacao

 

 

I used the FileCopy writer after a Creator like this:

I filed an enhancement request as PR#78162 to see if we can get this functionality added. I'm quite surprised no-one has suggested it before.
