NAME

     zip - zip archive structure


LIBRARY

     libzip (-lzip)


SYNOPSIS

     #include <zip.h>

     zip_t *archive;


DESCRIPTION

     A zip represents an open zip archive and is used for all functions
     accessing and modifying archives.

     It is created with zip_open(3), zip_open_from_source(3), or
     zip_fdopen(3).

     It is closed with zip_close(3) (keeping changes) or zip_discard(3)
     (discarding changes).

     All objects representing parts of an archive (like zip_file_t) are only
     valid while the archive remains open.


SEE ALSO

     zip_open_from_source(3)
