NAME

       zip_source_filep, zip_source_filep_create — create data source from FILE *

LIBRARY

       libzip (-lzip)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <zip.h>

       zip_source_t *
       zip_source_filep(zip_t *archive, FILE *file, zip_uint64_t start, zip_int64_t len);

       zip_source_t *
       zip_source_filep_create(FILE *file, zip_uint64_t start, zip_int64_t len, zip_error_t *error);

DESCRIPTION

       The  functions  zip_source_filep()  and zip_source_filep_create() create a zip source from a file stream.
       They read len bytes from offset start from the open file stream file.  If len is 0 or -1, the whole  file
       (starting from start) is used.

       If the file stream supports seeking, the source can be used to open a read-only zip archive from.

       The file stream is closed when the source is being freed, usually by zip_close(3).

RETURN VALUES

       Upon  successful  completion,  the created source is returned.  Otherwise, NULL is returned and the error
       code in archive or error is set to indicate the error.

ERRORS

       zip_source_filep() fails if:

       [ZIP_ER_INVAL]     file, start, or len are invalid.

       [ZIP_ER_MEMORY]    Required memory could not be allocated.

HISTORY

       zip_source_filep() and zip_source_filep_create() were added in libzip 1.0.
