NAME

4     archive_write_finish_entry — functions for creating archives

LIBRARY

7     Streaming Archive Library (libarchive, -larchive)

SYNOPSIS

10     #include <archive.h>
11
12     int
13     archive_write_finish_entry(struct archive *);
14

DESCRIPTION

16     Close out the entry just written.  In particular, this writes out the
17     final padding required by some formats.  Ordinarily, clients never need
18     to call this, as it is called automatically by archive_write_header() and
19     archive_write_close() as needed.  For archive_write_disk handles, this
20     flushes pending file attribute changes like modification time.
21

RETURN VALUES

23     This function returns ARCHIVE_OK on success, or one of several non-zero
24     error codes for errors.  Specific error codes include: ARCHIVE_RETRY for
25     operations that might succeed if retried, ARCHIVE_WARN for unusual condi‐
26     tions that do not prevent further operations, and ARCHIVE_FATAL for seri‐
27     ous errors that make remaining operations impossible.
28

ERRORS

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