| archive_clear_error()
|
Clears any error information left over from a previous call.
Not generally used in client code.
|
| archive_compression()
|
Synonym for
archive_filter_code(a).
|
| archive_compression_name()
|
Synonym for
archive_filter_name(a).
|
| archive_copy_error()
|
Copies error information from one archive to another.
|
| archive_errno()
|
Returns a numeric error code (see
errno(2))
indicating the reason for the most recent error return.
Note that this can not be reliably used to detect whether an
error has occurred.
It should be used only after another libarchive function
has returned an error status.
|
| archive_error_string()
|
Returns a textual error message suitable for display.
The error message here is usually more specific than that
obtained from passing the result of
archive_errno()
to
strerror(3).
|
| archive_file_count()
|
Returns a count of the number of files processed by this archive object.
The count is incremented by calls to
archive_write_header(3)
or
archive_read_next_header(3).
|
| archive_filter_code()
|
Returns a numeric code identifying the indicated filter.
See
archive_filter_count()
for details of the numbering.
|
| archive_filter_count()
|
Returns the number of filters in the current pipeline.
For read archive handles, these filters are added automatically
by the automatic format detection.
For write archive handles, these filters are added by calls to the various
archive_write_add_filter_XXX()
functions.
Filters in the resulting pipeline are numbered so that filter 0
is the filter closest to the format handler.
As a convenience, functions that expect a filter number will
accept -1 as a synonym for the highest-numbered filter.
For example, when reading a uuencoded gzipped tar archive, there
are three filters:
filter 0 is the gunzip filter,
filter 1 is the uudecode filter,
and filter 2 is the pseudo-filter that wraps the archive read functions.
In this case, requesting
archive_position(a, -1)
would be a synonym for
archive_position(a, 2)
which would return the number of bytes currently read from the archive, while
archive_position(a, 1)
would return the number of bytes after uudecoding, and
archive_position(a)
would return the number of bytes after decompression.
|
| archive_filter_name()
|
Returns a textual name identifying the indicated filter.
See
archive_filter_count()
for details of the numbering.
|
| archive_format()
|
Returns a numeric code indicating the format of the current
archive entry.
This value is set by a successful call to
archive_read_next_header().
Note that it is common for this value to change from
entry to entry.
For example, a tar archive might have several entries that
utilize GNU tar extensions and several entries that do not.
These entries will have different format codes.
|
| archive_format_name()
|
A textual description of the format of the current entry.
|
| archive_position()
|
Returns the number of bytes read from or written to the indicated filter.
In particular,
archive_position(a)
returns the number of bytes read or written by the format handler, while
archive_position(a, -1)
returns the number of bytes read or written to the archive.
See
archive_filter_count()
for details of the numbering here.
|
| archive_set_error()
|
Sets the numeric error code and error description that will be returned
by
archive_errno()
and
archive_error_string().
This function should be used within I/O callbacks to set system-specific
error codes and error descriptions.
This function accepts a printf-like format string and arguments.
However, you should be careful to use only the following printf
format specifiers:
"%c",
"%d",
"%jd",
"%jo",
"%ju",
"%jx",
"%ld",
"%lo",
"%lu",
"%lx",
"%o",
"%u",
"%s",
"%x",
"%%".
Field-width specifiers and other printf features are
not uniformly supported and should not be used.
