An LZH archive is embedded within a file. The file was read into a byte[], and the LZH part is identified as a smaller byte[].
How can the embedded LZH bytes be decompressed into another byte[] using .NET Framework 4.6 (C#)? I have only see http://www.infoq.com/news/2008/06/7-Zip-from-.NET which doesn't exactly do what I need.
Thanks.
the code snippet that follows is taken from the sample program from this article http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/27148/C-NET-Interface-for-Zip-Archive-DLLs
There are no significant changes: instead of reading and writing files, it reads and write byte arrays. Changes are marked by comments
Run with sevenzip.exe e "C:\temp\gwo0.11-sample-win32.lzh" 3 for example
