Hi!

7-zip DLL used

7za.dll

unable extract. error: {mErrorCode=CLASS_E_CLASSNOTAVAILABLE ClassFactory cannot supply requested class }

BitExtractor extractor{ lib, BitFormat::Split };

I think the problem is in the DLL you are using: the 7za.dll doesn't support the BitFormat::Split format; it supports only the 7z format (e.g., BitFormat::SevenZip). For extracting split archives, you should use the 7z.dll, which supports all formats. You can find a table with the supported features of each 7-zip DLL here: https://github.com/rikyoz/bit7z/wiki/7z-DLLs.

Thank you very much for quick reply. But I cannot find 7z.dll in https://www.7-zip.org/. Could you please guide me to a site where I can download 7z.dll?

One way I know to obtain the already compiled 7z.dll file is to download the usual 7-zip installer, and extract it: Alternatively, if you already installed 7-zip, you might find the DLL in its installation folder under C:\Program Files\7-zip.
