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.
