.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Bl -tag -compact -width indent
|
|
.It Fn archive_read_data
|
|
Read data associated with the header just read.
|
|
Internally, this is a convenience function that calls
|
|
.Fn archive_read_data_block
|
|
and fills any gaps with nulls so that callers see a single
|
|
continuous stream of data.
|
|
.It Fn archive_read_data_block
|
|
Return the next available block of data for this entry.
|
|
Unlike
|
|
.Fn archive_read_data ,
|
|
the
|
|
.Fn archive_read_data_block
|
|
function avoids copying data and allows you to correctly handle
|
|
sparse files, as supported by some archive formats.
|
|
The library guarantees that offsets will increase and that blocks
|
|
will not overlap.
|
|
Note that the blocks returned from this function can be much larger
|
|
than the block size read from disk, due to compression
|
|
and internal buffer optimizations.
|
|
.It Fn archive_read_data_skip
|
|
A convenience function that repeatedly calls
|
|
.Fn archive_read_data_block
|
|
to skip all of the data for this archive entry.
|
|
Note that this function is invoked automatically by
|
|
.Fn archive_read_next_header2
|
|
if the previous entry was not completely consumed.
|
|
.It Fn archive_read_data_into_fd
|
|
A convenience function that repeatedly calls
|
|
.Fn archive_read_data_block
|
|
to copy the entire entry to the provided file descriptor.
|
|

|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
Most functions return zero on success, non-zero on error.
|
|
The possible return codes include:
|
|
.Cm ARCHIVE_OK
|
|
(the operation succeeded),
|
|
.Cm ARCHIVE_WARN
|
|
(the operation succeeded but a non-critical error was encountered),
|
|
.Cm ARCHIVE_EOF
|
|
(end-of-archive was encountered),
|
|
.Cm ARCHIVE_RETRY
|
|
(the operation failed but can be retried),
|
|
and
|
|
.Cm ARCHIVE_FATAL
|
|
(there was a fatal error; the archive should be closed immediately).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn archive_read_data
|
|
returns a count of bytes actually read or zero at the end of the entry.
|
|
On error, a value of
|
|
.Cm ARCHIVE_FATAL ,
|
|
.Cm ARCHIVE_WARN ,
|
|
or
|
|
.Cm ARCHIVE_RETRY
|
|
is returned.
|
|

|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
Detailed error codes and textual descriptions are available from the
|
|
.Fn archive_errno
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn archive_error_string
|
|
functions.
