Adding empty directory on a zip

[Netpower8]

can you add an empty folder on a zip ? whats the command ?

the command add file only add file. is there a way to add an empty directory ?
 zip.AddFile('sampledir/sample.txt','/sampledir/sample.txt');

I think with addfile you also can add folders by just using the path

just tested this... nope it did not work....

i made my own zipping method... it displays a progress bar.. on zipping folders and unzip folders... but i cant seem to make it zip an empty folder...

been at this for 2-1/2 days already

are you sure the spk builder can add empty directory ? i just tried it... it does not seem to work.

Obviously it isn't possible. Can I ask why you need an empty folder in a zip file? ^^

normally on a zip utility it if the zip utility found an empty folder. it still add it. at first it may not be that important. but its more like
keeping the directory structure. this is more like a cosmetic reason. some apps might not be able to detect their directory structure is missing
and could fail to execute if it cant find the directory...

like i said its more cosmetic reason than practicality.
