ExtractDirectoryFromEntryIndex is a high level method that just uses internally the lower level functions of this plugin. If wanting to customise the ExtractDirectoryFromEntryIndex then our implementation for ExtractDirectoryFromEntryIndex is equal to this code here:

Sub ExtractDirectoryFromEntryIndex(zip as EinhugurZipArchives.ZipArchiveReader,index as UInt32, destination as FolderItem)
Dim f as FolderItem
Dim part as String
Dim pathParts() as String
Dim path as String
f = destination
path = zip.EntryName(index)
pathParts = path.Split("/")
for i as integer = 0 to pathParts.Ubound()
part = pathParts(i)
if i = 0 and part = "__MACOSX" then
return
end if
if part.Len > 0 then
f = f.Child(part)
if not f.Exists then
f.CreateAsFolder()
end if
end if
next
End Sub
