Library
Streaming Archive Library (libarchive, -larchive)
Overview
These functions set the format that will be used for the archive.
The library can write a variety of common archive formats.
archive_write_set_format()-
Sets the format based on the format code (see archive.h for the full list of format codes). In particular, this can be used in conjunction with
archive_format() to create a new archive with the same format as an existing archive. archive_write_set_format_by_name()-
Sets the corresponding format based on the common name.
-
archive_write_set_format_filter_by_ext()archive_write_set_format_filter_by_ext_def() Sets both filters and format based on the output filename, optionally referring to a default extension if the supplied filename does not have a known one. Supported extensions: .7z, .zip, .jar, .cpio, .iso, .a, .ar, .tar, .tgz, .tar.gz, .tar.bz2, .tar.xz -
