ZIP_GET_NAME(3) 					     Library Functions Manual						   ZIP_GET_NAME(3)

NAME

       zip_get_name - get name of file by index

LIBRARY

       libzip (-lzip)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <zip.h>

       const char * zip_get_name(struct zip *archive, int index, int flags);

DESCRIPTION

       The  zip_get_name  function  returns  the name of the file at position index in archive.  If flags is set to ZIP_FL_UNCHANGED, the original
       unchanged filename is returned.	The returned string must not be modified or freed, and becomes invalid when archive is closed.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon successful completion, a pointer to the name is returned.  Otherwise, NULL and the error code in archive is set to indicate the error.

ERRORS

       zip_get_name fails if:

	      [ZIP_ER_DELETED]
		  index refers to a file that has been deleted (see zip_delete(3) ).

	      [ZIP_ER_INVAL]
		  index is not a valid file index in archive, or index points to an added file and ZIP_FL_UNCHANGED is set.
