ExtractDllEx fails silently on extraction
 
Hi,

I used to have ExtractDLLEx working a few months back. I tried it again just now and it no longer works and I can't figure out why.

In a nutshell, I compress the files without a problem, on the client end I decompress them without a problem (ExtractDllEx returns success) yet no files get extracted. It's as if it's failing silently.

Is there a way for me to get more debugging information out of this, such as what files got extracted and into what path?

Thanks,
Gili

Dear god......... What a waste of hours of my time.

Turns out that I used CompressFile.exe with an input path of:

../foo/bar.dll

and so when the file was extracted, it went into $INSTDIR/../foo/bar.dll which I totally did not expect to happen.

Problem solved :)
