ARCHIVE_WRITE_FINISH_ENTRY(3archive)
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 Tn archive_write_disk han-
dles, 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.
