Overview
The functions zip_source_filep() and zip_source_filep_create() create a zip source from a file stream. They read len bytes from offset start from the open file stream file. For a description of the len argument, see zip_source_file(3).
If the file stream supports seeking, the source can be used to open a read-only zip archive from.
The file stream is closed when the source is being freed, usually by zip_close(3).
Return values
Upon successful completion, the created source is returned. Otherwise, NULL is returned and the error code in archive or error is set to indicate the error.
Errors
zip_source_filep() fails if:
- [ZIP_ER_INVAL]
-
file, start, or len are invalid.
- [ZIP_ER_MEMORY]
-
Required memory could not be allocated.
