NAME¶
archive_read_close,
archive_read_finish,
archive_read_free —
functions for reading streaming archives
LIBRARY¶
Streaming Archive Library (libarchive, -larchive)
SYNOPSIS¶
#include
<archive.h>
int
archive_read_close(
struct
archive *);
int
archive_read_finish(
struct
archive *);
int
archive_read_free(
struct
archive *);
DESCRIPTION¶
archive_read_close()
- Complete the archive and invoke the close callback.
archive_read_finish()
- This is a deprecated synonym for
archive_read_free(). The new name was
introduced with libarchive 3.0. Applications that need to compile with
either libarchive 2 or libarchive 3 should continue to use the
archive_read_finish() name. Both names
will be supported until libarchive 4.0 is released, which is not expected
to occur earlier than 2013.
archive_read_free()
- Invokes
archive_read_close() if it was
not invoked manually, then release all resources. Note: In libarchive 1.x,
this function was declared to return
void, which made it impossible to detect
certain errors when
archive_read_close() was invoked
implicitly from this function. The declaration is corrected beginning with
libarchive 2.0.
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.
