Error A local variable cannot be declared in this scope


I am trying to unzip a file with DotNetZip but I get a error on the "e"

using (ZipFile zip = ZipFile.Read(openFileDialog1.FileName))
{
    foreach (ZipEntry e in zip)
    {
        e.Extract(Environment.CurrentDirectory, ExtractExistingFileAction.OverwriteSilently);
    }
}

Solution

  • I suspect you are doing this inside an event handler which already has a parameter called e.

    Try renaming e to entry inside the foreach.
