ZIP_FDOPEN(3)		    Library Functions Manual		 ZIP_FDOPEN(3)

NAME
       zip_fdopen -- open zip archive using open file descriptor

LIBRARY
       libzip (-lzip)

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<zip.h>

       zip_t *
       zip_fdopen(int fd, int flags, int *errorp);

DESCRIPTION
       The  zip	archive	specified by the open file descriptor fd is opened and
       a pointer to a struct zip, used to manipulate the archive, is returned.
       In contrast to zip_open(3), using zip_fdopen the	archive	 can  only  be
       opened  in  read-only mode.  The	fd argument may	not be used any	longer
       after calling zip_fdopen.  The flags are	specified by or'ing  the  fol-
       lowing values, or 0 for none of them.

	     ZIP_CHECKCONS  Perform  additional	stricter consistency checks on
			    the	archive, and error if they fail.

       If an error occurs and errorp is	non-NULL, it will be set to the	corre-
       sponding	error code.

RETURN VALUES
       Upon successful completion zip_fdopen() returns a struct	 zip  pointer,
       and  fd	should not be used any longer, nor passed to close(2).	Other-
       wise, NULL is returned and *errorp is set to indicate  the  error.   In
       the error case, fd remains unchanged.

ERRORS
       The file	specified by fd	is prepared for	use by libzip(3) unless:

       [ZIP_ER_INCONS]	  Inconsistencies  were	found in the file specified by
			  path.	 This error  is	 often	caused	by  specifying
			  ZIP_CHECKCONS	but can	also happen without it.

       [ZIP_ER_INVAL]	  The  flags argument is invalid.  Not all zip_open(3)
			  flags	are allowed for	zip_fdopen, see	"DESCRIPTION".

       [ZIP_ER_MEMORY]	  Required memory could	not be allocated.

       [ZIP_ER_NOZIP]	  The file specified by	fd is not a zip	archive.

       [ZIP_ER_OPEN]	  The file specified by	fd could not be	 prepared  for
			  use by libzip(3).

       [ZIP_ER_OPNOTSUPP]
			  This	functionality  has  been  disabled  at compile
			  time.

       [ZIP_ER_READ]	  A read error occurred; see errno for details.

       [ZIP_ER_SEEK]	  The file specified by	fd does	not allow seeks.
