ZIP_FDOPEN(3) | Library Functions Manual | ZIP_FDOPEN(3) |
NAME¶
zip_fdopen - open zip archive using open file descriptor
LIBRARY¶
libzip (-lzip)
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <zip.h>
struct zip * zip_fdopen(int fd, int flags, int *errorp);
DESCRIPTION¶
The zip archive specified by the open file descriptor fd is opened and a pointer to a
struct zip, used to manipulate the archive, is returned. In contrast to zip_open(3), using the archive can only be opened in read-only mode. The fd argument may not be used any longer after calling The are specified by or'ing the following values, or 0 for none of them.
- ZIP_CHECKCONS
- Perform additional consistency checks on the archive, and error if they fail.
If an error occurs and errorp is it will be set to the corresponding error code.
RETURN VALUES¶
Upon successful completion zip_fdopen returns a
struct zip pointer, and fd should not be used any longer, nor passed to close(2). Otherwise, NULL is returned and *errorp is set to indicate the error. In the error case, fd remains unchanged.

- [ZIP_ER_INCONS]
