NAME

     archive_read_next_header, archive_read_next_header2 — functions for reading streaming
     archives

LIBRARY

     Streaming Archive Library (libarchive, -larchive)

SYNOPSIS

     #include <archive.h>

     int
     archive_read_next_header(struct archive *, struct archive_entry **);

     int
     archive_read_next_header2(struct archive *, struct archive_entry *);

DESCRIPTION

     archive_read_next_header()
             Read the header for the next entry and return a pointer to a struct archive_entry.
             This is a convenience wrapper around archive_read_next_header2() that reuses an
             internal struct archive_entry object for each request.
     archive_read_next_header2()
             Read the header for the next entry and populate the provided struct archive_entry.

RETURN VALUES

     These functions return ARCHIVE_OK (the operation succeeded), ARCHIVE_WARN (the operation
     succeeded but a non-critical error was encountered), ARCHIVE_EOF (end-of-archive was
     encountered), ARCHIVE_RETRY (the operation failed but can be retried), and ARCHIVE_FATAL
     (there was a fatal error; the archive should be closed immediately).

ERRORS

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