DESCRIPTION

23     archive_read_close()
24             Complete the archive and invoke the close callback.
25     archive_read_finish()
26             This is a deprecated synonym for archive_read_free().  The new
27             name was introduced with libarchive 3.0.  Applications that need
28             to compile with either libarchive 2 or libarchive 3 should con‐
29             tinue to use the archive_read_finish() name.  Both names will be
30             supported until libarchive 4.0 is released, which is not expected
31             to occur earlier than 2013.
32     archive_read_free()
33             Invokes archive_read_close() if it was not invoked manually, then
34             release all resources.  Note: In libarchive 1.x, this function
35             was declared to return void, which made it impossible to detect
36             certain errors when archive_read_close() was invoked implicitly
37             from this function.  The declaration is corrected beginning with
38             libarchive 2.0.

ERRORS

44     Detailed error codes and textual descriptions are available from the
45     archive_errno() and archive_error_string() functions.
