NAME
archive_write_finish_entry —
functions
for creating archives
LIBRARY
Streaming Archive Library (libarchive, -larchive)
SYNOPSIS
#include <archive.h>
int
archive_write_finish_entry(
struct
archive *);
DESCRIPTION
Close out the entry just written. In particular, this writes out the final
padding required by some formats. Ordinarily, clients never need to call this,
as it is called automatically by
archive_write_header() and
archive_write_close() as needed. For archive_write_disk
handles, this flushes pending file attribute changes like modification time.
RETURN VALUES
This function returns
ARCHIVE_OK on success, or one of several
non-zero error codes for errors. Specific error codes include:
ARCHIVE_RETRY for operations that might succeed if retried,
ARCHIVE_WARN for unusual conditions that do not prevent
further operations, and
ARCHIVE_FATAL for serious errors
that make remaining operations impossible.
ERRORS
Detailed error codes and textual descriptions are available from the
archive_errno() and
archive_error_string()
functions.
