DESCRIPTION

The functions zip_source_filep () and zip_source_filep_create () create a zip source from a file stream. They read len bytes from offset start from the open file stream file . For a description of the len argument, see zip_source_file (3).

If the file stream supports seeking, the source can be used to open a read-only zip archive from.

The file stream is closed when the source is being freed, usually by zip_close (3).

RETURN VALUES

Upon successful completion, the created source is returned. Otherwise, NULL is returned and the error code in archive or error is set to indicate the error.

ERRORS

zip_source_filep () fails if:

[ZIP_ER_INVAL]

file , start , or len are invalid.

Required memory could not be allocated.
