NAME

       zip_open, zip_open_from_source - open zip archive

LIBRARY

       libzip (-lzip)

SYNOPSIS

       zip.h zip_t * zip_open const char *path int flags int *errorp zip_t * zip_open_from_source
       zip_source_t *zs int flags zip_error_t *ze

DESCRIPTION

       The zip_open function opens the zip archive specified by path and returns a pointer  to  a
       struct  zip,  used  to  manipulate  the  archive.   The  flags are specified by or'ing the
       following values, or 0 for none of them.

       ZIP_CHECKCONS
              Perform additional stricter consistency checks on the archive, and  error  if  they
              fail.

       ZIP_CREATE
              Create the archive if it does not exist.

       ZIP_EXCL
              Error if archive already exists.

       ZIP_TRUNCATE
              If archive exists, ignore its current contents.  In other words, handle it the same
              way as an empty archive.

       ZIP_RDONLY
              Open archive in read-only mode.

       If an error occurs and errorp is non-NULL, it will be set to the corresponding error code.

       The zip_open_from_source function opens a zip archive encapsulated by  the  zip_source  zs
       using the provided flags.  In case of error, the zip_error ze is filled in.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon  successful completion zip_open and zip_open_from_source return a struct zip pointer.
       Otherwise, NULL is returned and  zip_open  sets  *errorp  to  indicate  the  error,  while
       zip_open_from source sets ze to indicate the error.

ERRORS

       The archive specified by path is opened unless:

       [ZIP_ER_EXISTS]  The file specified by path exists and ZIP_EXCL is set.

       [ZIP_ER_INCONS]  Inconsistencies  were found in the file specified by path.  This error is
                        often caused by specifying ZIP_CHECKCONS but can also happen without it.

       [ZIP_ER_INVAL]   The path argument is NULL.

       [ZIP_ER_MEMORY]  Required memory could not be allocated.

       [ZIP_ER_NOENT]   The file specified by path does not exist and ZIP_CREATE is not set.

       [ZIP_ER_NOZIP]   The file specified by path is not a zip archive.

       [ZIP_ER_OPEN]    The file specified by path could not be opened.

       [ZIP_ER_READ]    A read error occurred; see errno for details.

       [ZIP_ER_SEEK]    The file specified by path does not allow seeks.
