47  * nsIZipWriter
48  *
49  * An interface for a zip archiver that can be used from script.
50  *
51  * The interface supports both a synchronous method of archiving data and a
52  * queueing system to allow operations to be prepared then run in sequence
53  * with notification after completion.
54  *
55  * Operations added to the queue do not get performed until performQueue is
56  * called at which point they will be performed in the order that they were
57  * added to the queue.
58  *
59  * Operations performed on the queue will throw any errors out to the
60  * observer.
61  *
62  * An attempt to perform a synchronous operation while the background queue
63  * is in progress will throw NS_ERROR_IN_PROGRESS.
64  *
65  * Entry names should use /'s as path separators and should not start with
66  * a /.
67  *
68  * It is not generally necessary to add directory entries in order to add file
69  * entries within them, however it is possible that some zip programs may
70  * experience problems what that.
