"minitar" is a minimal example of a program that uses libarchive to
|
||
|
|
read/write various archive formats. It's a more ambitious version of
|
||
|
|
'untar.c' that includes compile-time options to enable/disable various
|
||
|
|
features, including non-tar formats, archive creation, and automatic
|
||
|
|
decompression support.
|
||
|
|
|

|
I use this as a test bed to check for "link pollution," ensuring that
|
||
|
|
a program using libarchive does not pull in unnecessary code.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The "minitar" program is also a good starting point for anyone who
|
||
|
|
wants to use libarchive for their own purposes, as it demonstrates
|
||
|
|
basic usage of the library.
