Description

ZIP_FILE_EXTRA_FIELD_... BSD Library Functions Manual ZIP_FILE_EXTRA_FIELD_...

NAME
     zip_file_extra_field_get, zip_file_extra_field_get_by_id -- get extra
     field for file in zip

LIBRARY
     libzip (-lzip)

SYNOPSIS
     #include <zip.h>

     const zip_uint8_t *
     zip_file_extra_field_get(zip_t *archive, zip_uint64_t index,
         zip_uint16_t extra_field_index, zip_uint16_t *idp,
         zip_uint16_t *lenp, zip_flags_t flags);

     const zip_uint8_t *
     zip_file_extra_field_get_by_id(zip_t *archive, zip_uint64_t index,
         zip_uint16_t extra_field_id, zip_uint16_t extra_field_index,
         zip_uint16_t *lenp, zip_flags_t flags);

DESCRIPTION
     The zip_file_extra_field_get() function returns the extra field with
     index extra_field_index for the file at position index in the zip ar-
     chive.  This pointer should not be modified or free(3)'d, and becomes
     invalid when archive is closed.  If idp is not NULL, the integer to which
     it points will be set to the ID (two-byte signature) of the selected
     extra field.  If lenp is not NULL, the integer to which it points will be
     set to the length of the extra field.  Generally speaking, lenp and idp
     should be passed since only the extra field data is returned (i.e., nei-
     ther the ID nor the length, if the idp and lenp arguments are not pro-
     vided).

     The following flags are supported:

           ZIP_FL_CENTRAL      Return extra fields from the archive's central
                               directory.

           ZIP_FL_LOCAL        Return extra fields from the local file head-
                               ers.

           ZIP_FL_UNCHANGED    Return the original unchanged extra fields,
                               ignoring any changes made.

     The zip_file_extra_field_get_by_id() function returns the extra field
     with ID (two-byte signature) extra_field_id and index extra_field_index
     (in other words, the extra_field_index'th extra field with ID
     extra_field_id) The other arguments are the same as for
     zip_file_extra_field_get().

RETURN VALUES
     Upon successful completion, a pointer to an extra field is returned, or
     NULL if there is no extra field with that extra_field_index for the file
     with index index.  In case of an error, NULL is returned and the error
     code in archive is set to indicate the error.

ERRORS
     zip_file_extra_field_get() and zip_file_extra_field_get_by_id() fail if:

     [ZIP_ER_NOENT]     index is not a valid file index in archive, or
                        extra_field_index is not a valid extra file index (for
                        ID extra_field_id).

CAVEATS
     Please note that the extra field IDs 0x0001 (ZIP64 extension), 0x6375
     (Infozip UTF-8 comment), and 0x7075 (Infozip UTF-8 file name) can not be
     read using zip_file_extra_field_get() since they are used by libzip(3)
     internally.
