libzip (-lzip)SYNOPSIS
#include <zip.h>zip_t *
- zip_open(const char *path, int flags, int *errorp);
zip_t *
- zip_open_from_source(zip_source_t *zs, int flags, zip_error_t *ze);
DESCRIPTION
-
- ZIP_CHECKCONS
- Perform additional stricter consistency checks on the archive, and error if they fail.
- ZIP_CREATE
- Create the archive if it does not exist.
- ZIP_EXCL
- Error if archive already exists.
- ZIP_TRUNCATE
- If archive exists, ignore its current contents. In other words, handle it the same way as an empty archive.
- ZIP_RDONLY
- Open archive in read-only mode.
If an error occurs and errorp is non-NULL, it will be set to the corresponding error code.
The zip_open_from_source() function opens a zip archive encapsulated by the zip_source zs using the provided flags. In case of error, the zip_error ze is filled in.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion zip_open() and zip_open_from_source() return a struct zip pointer. Otherwise, NULL is returned and zip_open() sets *errorp to indicate the error, while zip_open_from(source) sets ze to indicate the error.ERRORS
