archive_write_fail
ARCHIVE_WRITE_FREE(3) BSD Library Functions Manual ARCHIVE_WRITE_FREE(3)
NAME
archive_write_fail, archive_write_close, archive_write_finish, archive_write_free -- functions for creating archives
LIBRARY
Streaming Archive Library (libarchive, -larchive)
SYNOPSIS
#include <archive.h>
int
archive_write_fail(struct archive *);
int
archive_write_close(struct archive *);
int
archive_write_finish(struct archive *);
int
archive_write_free(struct archive *);
DESCRIPTION
archive_write_fail()
Always returns ARCHIVE_FATAL. This marks the archive object as being unusable; after calling this function, the only call that can
succeed is archive_write_free() to release the resources. This can be used to speed recovery when the archive creation must be
aborted. Note that the created archive is likely to be malformed in this case;
archive_write_close()
Complete the archive and invoke the close callback.
archive_write_finish()
This is a deprecated synonym for archive_write_free().
archive_write_free()
Invokes archive_write_close() if necessary, then releases all resources. If you need detailed information about
archive_write_close() failures, you should be careful to call it separately, as you cannot obtain error information after
archive_write_free() returns.
RETURN VALUES
These functions return ARCHIVE_OK on success, or ARCHIVE_FATAL.
ERRORS
Detailed error codes and textual descriptions are available from the archive_errno() and archive_error_string() functions.
