I have a 7zip archive which contains some hundred files separated into different directories. The target is to download it from a FTP server and then extract it on the phone.

My problem is that the 7zip SDK doesn't contain a lot. I am looking for examples, tutorials and snippets regarding the decompression of 7z files.

(Decompression via Intent is only a secondary option)

LZMA SDK just provides the encoder and decoder for encoding/decoding the raw data, but 7z archive is a complex format for storing multiple files.
