ZIP_SOURCE_BEGIN_WRITE(3)    Library Functions Manual  ZIP_SOURCE_BEGIN_WRITE(3)

NAME
     zip_source_begin_write,   zip_source_begin_write_cloning	--  prepare  zip
     source for writing

LIBRARY
     libzip (-lzip)

SYNOPSIS
     #include <zip.h>

     int
     zip_source_begin_write(zip_source_t *source);

     int
     zip_source_begin_write_cloning(zip_source_t *source, zip_uint64_t offset);

DESCRIPTION
     The functions zip_source_begin_write() and zip_source_begin_write_cloning()
     prepare source for writing.  Usually this involves creating temporary files
     or allocating buffers.

     zip_source_begin_write_cloning() preserves the first offset  bytes  of  the
     original  file.  This is done efficiently, and writes to source won't over-
     write the original data until zip_commit_write() is called.

RETURN VALUES
     Upon successful completion 0 is returned.	Otherwise, -1  is  returned  and
     the error information in source is set to indicate the error.

     zip_source_write(3)
