add support for password protected files(rar, 7zip)
Comment 1 Giuseppe Torelli 2009-07-20 09:35:48 CEST
Hi,

xarchiver already has support for 7zip and rar password protected files. However if you talk about header encryption support this will require deep knowledge of the 7zip/rar algorithm I currently don't have and I will not have in the future. If you feel you can help, patches are always welcome otherwise please reply here so I can close this "bug".

Thank you

oher extractors(eg. file-roller) detect a password(if one was given) and ask for it...

im not a programmer so close it =(

Can you please point me to such an archive? I want to test it. If file-roller opens it I will fix this problem with Xarchiver.

Xarchiver is no longer hosted on the xfce repos - it's now at http://xarchiver.sourceforge.net/
If this bug is still valid, please file it there.
