ZIP_SET_FILE_COMPRESSION(3)

NAME
zip_set_file_compression - set compression method for file in zip

LIBRARY
libzip (-lzip)

SYNOPSIS
#include <zip.h>

int
zip_set_file_compression(zip_t *archive, zip_uint64_t index, zip_int32_t comp, zip_uint32_t comp_flags);

DESCRIPTION
The zip_set_file_compression() function sets the compression method for the file at position index in the zip archive to comp with the compression method specific comp_flags. The comp is the same as returned by zip_stat(3). For the comp argument, currently only the following values are supported:

ZIP_CM_DEFAULT
    default compression; currently the same as ZIP_CM_DEFLATE.

ZIP_CM_STORE
    Store the file uncompressed.

ZIP_CM_DEFLATE
    Deflate the file with the zlib(3) algorithm and default options

The comp_flags argument is currently ignored.

The current compression method for a file in a zip archive can be determined using zip_stat(3).

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

ERRORS
zip_set_file_compression() fails if:

[ZIP_ER_INVAL]
    index is not a valid file index in archive, or the argument combination is invalid.

[ZIP_ER_COMPNOTSUPP]
    Unsupported compression method requested.

[ZIP_ER_RDONLY]
    Read-only zip file, no changes allowed.
