apex_zip - add support for password protected zip files

joseph fuda Internal · Aug 18 2023

Idea Summary
Currently APEX_ZIP.GET_FILE_CONTENT raises

ORA-29294: A data error occurred during compression or uncompression.

when attempting to extract a file from a password protected zip.

Please enhance GET_FILE_CONTENT() so that it can successfully extract content from a password protected zip.

Additionally, it would be useful if ADD_FILE() and FINISH() could be used to create password protected zip files.

Use Case
Working with password protected zip files.

Preferred Solution (Optional)

Add a P_ZIP_PASSWORD IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL parameter to all relevant APEX_ZIP subprograms.

This idea is open.

    I think putting the password in the code is not a good practice, but we could use the "wallet".
