Hi all.
While upgrading to windows7 64bit, I had some trouble getting the UGzip tool to work. So I decided to try and write a batch file that would do a similar job.
As it turns out it was easier as planned,
it uses the ugpc tool in combination with 7zip ( opensource alt. to winzip). UGPC's output luckily is exactly the input that 7zip needs.
here's the batch file code:
@ECHO OFF
"C:\Program Files\UGS\NX 7.5\UGII\ugpc.exe" %1 > %1.txt
"C:\Program Files (x86)\7-Zip\7z" a -tzip -mx7 %1.zip @%1.txt
del /F %1.txt
Next step is to add a registry key:HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/shell/zipassy/
and input "C:\ugpc_zip\ugpc_zip.bat" %1 as data
This adds an action called zipassy when you rightclick a file.
doing this automaticly creates a zip file with the selected file and all components.
Obviously you will need to substitute the correct paths according to your setup.
Hope it can be of help to someone.
