DESCRIPTION

`archive_write_add_filter_bzip2()`, `archive_write_add_filter_compress()`, `archive_write_add_filter_grzip()`, `archive_write_add_filter_gzip()`, `archive_write_add_filter_lrzip()`, `archive_write_add_filter_lz4()`, `archive_write_add_filter_lzip()`, `archive_write_add_filter_lzma()`, `archive_write_add_filter_lzop()`, `archive_write_add_filter_xz()`, `archive_write_add_filter_zstd()`, The resulting archive will be compressed as specified. Note that the compressed output is always properly blocked.
`archive_write_add_filter_b64encode()`, `archive_write_add_filter_uuencode()`, The output will be encoded as specified. The encoded output is always properly blocked.
`archive_write_add_filter_none()`
	This is never necessary. It is provided only for backwards compatibility.
`archive_write_add_filter_program()`
	The archive will be fed into the specified compression program. The output of that program is blocked and written to the client write callbacks.

RETURN VALUES

These functions return ARCHIVE_OK on success, or ARCHIVE_FATAL.

ERRORS

Detailed error codes and textual descriptions are available from the archive_errno() and archive_error_string() functions.
