LIBRARY

libzip (-lzip)  

SYNOPSIS

In zip.h Ft int Fn zip_source_begin_write zip_source_t *source Ft int Fn zip_source_begin_write_cloning zip_source_t *source zip_uint64_t offset  

DESCRIPTION

The functions Fn zip_source_begin_write and Fn zip_source_begin_write_cloning prepare Fa source for writing. Usually this involves creating temporary files or allocating buffers.

Fn zip_source_begin_write_cloning preserves the first offset bytes of the original file. This is done efficiently, and writes to source won't overwrite the original data until Fn zip_commit_write is called.  

RETURN VALUES

Upon successful completion 0 is returned. Otherwise, -1 is returned and the error information in source is set to indicate the error.
