Hi community  

We are using Xceed Zip for NET 3.0.6173.0 in a ASP.NET application.

Is the following code secure, regarding multithreading ?

public static void ZipFiles(string [] inputFiles, string zipFilepath)
{
ZipArchive.DefaultTempFolder = new DiskFolder(Path.GetDirectoryName(zipFilepath));
QuickZip.Zip(zipFilepath, true, true, false, inputFiles);
}

My question concerns the ZipArchive.DefaultTempFolder property !

May I call the ZipFiles method from 2 distinct threads at the same time?

Thanks,

You can use this method in a multi-threaded environment as long as you don’t process the same zip archive. The DefaultTempFolder will be used by all ZipArchive instances (every call to QuickZip.Zip creates one) and temp files will be created using unique file names (GUID).
