All you need to do is the following, where myDirectoryPath is a directory with no files in it (even if it has sub-directories with files):\r\n\r\n                using (ZipFile zip = new ZipFile(myZipFileName))\r\n                {\r\n                    zip.AddDirectory(myDirectoryPath, \"\");\r\n                    zip.Save();\r\n                }\r\n\r\n\r\nIf you pass in something for the DirectoryPathInArchive argument, it works. But passing \"\" (as in the above example) gives the System.IndexOutOfRangeException. Obviously an easy workaround, but it would be nice if it worked the way I expected.",
