NAME
zip_open - open zip archive LIBRARY
libzip (-lzip) SYNOPSIS
#include <zip.h> struct zip * zip_open(const char *path, int flags, int *errorp); DESCRIPTION
The zip archive specified by path is opened and a pointer to a struct zip, used to manipulate the archive, is returned. The are specified by or'ing the following values, or 0 for none of them. ZIP_CREATE Create the archive if it does not exist. ZIP_EXCL Error if archive already exists. ZIP_CHECKCONS Perform additional consistency checks on the archive, and error if they fail. If an error occurs and errorp is non-NULL, it will be set to the corresponding error code. RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion zip_open returns a struct zip pointer. Otherwise, NULL is returned and *errorp is set to indicate the error. ERRORS
The archive specified by path is opened unless: [ZIP_ER_EXISTS] The file specified by path exists and ZIP_EXCL is set. [ZIP_ER_INCONS] Inconsistencies were found in the file specified by path and ZIP_CHECKCONS was specified. [ZIP_ER_INVAL] The path argument is NULL. [ZIP_ER_MEMORY] Required memory could not be allocated. [ZIP_ER_NOENT] The file specified by path does not exist and ZIP_CREATE is not set. [ZIP_ER_NOZIP] The file specified by path is not a zip archive. [ZIP_ER_OPEN] The file specified by path could not be opened. [ZIP_ER_READ] A read error occurred; see for details. [ZIP_ER_SEEK] The file specified by path does not allow seeks. SEE ALSO

NAME
zip_fopen , - .Nm zip_fopen_index open file in zip archive for reading LIBRARY
libzip (-lzip) SYNOPSIS
#include <zip.h> struct zip_file * zip_fopen(struct zip *archive, const char *fname, int flags); struct zip_file * zip_fopen_index(struct zip *archive, zip_uint64_t index, int flags); DESCRIPTION
The zip_fopen function opens the file name fname in archive. The flags argument specifies how the name lookup should be done, according to the values are described in zip_name_locate(3). Also, the following values may be or'ed to it. ZIP_FL_COMPRESSED Read the compressed data. Otherwise the data is uncompressed by zip_fread. ZIP_FL_UNCHANGED Read the original data from the zip archive, ignoring any changes made to the file. The zip_fopen_index function opens the file at position index. If encrypted data is encountered, the functions call zip_fopen_encrypted(3) or zip_fopen_index_encrypted(3) respectively, using the default password set with zip_set_default_password(3). RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, a struct zip_file pointer is returned. Otherwise, NULL is returned and the error code in archive is set to indicate the error. ERRORS
[ZIP_ER_CHANGED] The file data has been changed. [ZIP_ER_COMPNOTSUPP] The compression method used is not supported. [ZIP_ER_ENCRNOTSUPP] The encryption method used is not supported. [ZIP_ER_MEMORY] Required memory could not be allocated. [ZIP_ER_READ] A file read error occurred. [ZIP_ER_SEEK] A file seek error occurred. [ZIP_ER_ZLIB] Initializing the zlib stream failed. The function zip_fopen may also fail and set for any of the errors specified for the routine zip_name_locate(3). The function zip_fopen_index may also fail with ZIP_ER_INVAL if index is invalid.
