Unpacking rar on iPhone

Question

I created a small download application with a music player, and now I want it to unpack the archives, because quite often mp3 files are archived and you can play them before unpacking the archive. I found a solution for .zip files on the iPhone here in stackoverflow, but I am wondering if there is a way to unzip .rar files or other .zip formats. Many times I blushed about creating my own utility for this, but I don’t know if I can create it or not. Could you tell me if there is a solution for unpacking .rar archives (or just with the exception of .zip) on iPhone? Thanks

UnRar contains the source code, so if everything fails, you can see if there is a port for the iPhone or try to do it yourself. For Symbian phones, it seems like FreeUnRar .
