LIBRARY
|
||
Streaming Archive Library (libarchive, -larchive)
|
||
|
||
SYNOPSIS
|
||
#include <archive.h>
|
||
|
||
int
|
||
archive_write_set_format_cpio(struct archive *);
|
||
|
||
int
|
||
archive_write_set_format_pax(struct archive *);
|
||
|
||
int
|
||
archive_write_set_format_pax_restricted(struct archive *);
|
||
|
||
int
|
||
archive_write_set_format_shar(struct archive *);
|
||
|
||
int
|
||
archive_write_set_format_shar_dump(struct archive *);
|
||
|
||
int
|
||
archive_write_set_format_ustar(struct archive *);
|
||
|
||
DESCRIPTION
|
||
These functions set the format that will be used for the archive.
|
||
|
||
The library can write POSIX octet-oriented cpio format archives, POSIX-
|
||
standard “pax interchange” format archives, traditional “shar” archives,
|
||
enhanced “dump” shar archives that store a variety of file attributes and
|
||
handle binary files, and POSIX-standard “ustar” archives. The pax inter‐
|
||
change format is a backwards-compatible tar format that adds key/value
|
||
attributes to each entry and supports arbitrary filenames, linknames,
|
||
uids, sizes, etc. “Restricted pax interchange format” is the library
|
||
default; this is the same as pax format, but suppresses the pax extended
|
||
header for most normal files. In most cases, this will result in ordi‐
|
||
nary ustar archives.
|
||
|
||
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.
