loadZip: Read the contents of a file as binary into a raw vector.
In omegahat/Rcompression: In-memory decompression for GNU zip and bzip2 formats
loadZip R Documentation
Read the contents of a file as binary into a raw vector.
Description
We use this function to read the contents of a zip file
into memory. This is a general function and can be used
to read arbitrary files, including any binary file.
It determines the length of the file and reads that many bytes
and so removes the need for the caller of
readBin to know how many bytes are in
the file.
Usage
readBinaryFile(filename)
loadZip(filename)
Arguments
filename
the full path identifying the file
Value
A raw vector with length corresponding to the number
of bytes in the file.

data = loadZip(system.file("sampleData", "Empty.docx", package = "Rcompression"))
ar = zipArchive(data)
