Re: [wxCode-users] archive: Application for code submission

[Ryan N. <wxp...@co...>]

Also MFC users will be confused at archive also
(CArchive in MFC is for serialization).

However, most class contributions involving MFC and
zip files are named CZipArchive or CZip.  Plus
if Microsoft had to do MFC over again
they would use CSerializable after java
instead of CArchive.

So, I think unless somebody comes up with
a better name (I've been trying to come up
with one for a while) wxArchive is probably
best.

Other possible names:
wxBundle (OS X users would get confused)
wxPackage
wxCompressedDir
