Creating a Zip file programmatically C++

I am trying to find a lib that will allow me to produce a zip file. I have a list of files that I want to place into the archive. The first suggestion I had was to use boost with zlib, however that turned out to be a dead end. I also looked at zziplib, however its a read only lib.

If anyone has any experience with doing this, and had used a lib successfully before I would love to hear about it.

This is for a C++ project in MSVC9, and the lib must be free to use commercially.
