ReReadConfigFromExtractionFolder()

SaveAsLocalFilesAsync(string)

Saves the current pacz to an uncompressed folder. Changes our Phoenix.PaczAPI.IReadOnlyExtractedPacz.PaczSource value.

SaveAsLocalPaczAsync(string)

Saves the current pacz to a compressed .pacz file. The metadata and extracted files are saved into the compressed .pacz. Changes our Phoenix.PaczAPI.IReadOnlyExtractedPacz.PaczSource value.

SaveToSourceAsync()

Save the Pacz to Phoenix.PaczAPI.IPacz.SourceUri. If the source points to a compressed .Pacz, the metadata and extracted files are stored into the file. If the source points at an uncompressed folder, then the current metadata is saved to the component.pacj file.

UpdateSourceAsync(IPacz, string, bool)

Generally meant to be used only internally by Phoenix Integration. Allows the out of process host executable to reuse the directory already extracted by the OEM process. Changes the value of Phoenix.PaczAPI.IReadOnlyExtractedPacz.PaczSource, Phoenix.PaczAPI.IReadOnlyExtractedPacz.ExtractionFolder, and whether the extraction folder should be deleted on dispose. This also ReReads the Config from the new ExtractionFolder

WriteConfigToExtractionFolderAsync()

Causes the current Phoenix.PaczAPI.IExtractedPacz.Config to be written to the component.pacj file in Phoenix.PaczAPI.IReadOnlyExtractedPacz.ExtractionFolder
