|
|
.Xc
|
|
Enables support---including auto-detection code---for the
|
|
specified archive format.
|
|
For example,
|
|
.Fn archive_read_support_format_tar
|
|
enables support for a variety of standard tar formats, old-style tar,
|
|
ustar, pax interchange format, and many common variants.
|
|
.It Fn archive_read_support_format_all
|
|
Enables support for all available formats except the
|
|
.Dq raw
|
|
format (see below).
|
|
.It Fn archive_read_support_format_by_code
|
|
Enables a single format specified by the format code.
|
|
This can be useful when reading a single archive twice;
|
|
use
|
|
.Fn archive_format
|
|
after reading the first time and pass the resulting code
|
|
to this function to selectively enable only the necessary
|
|
format support.
|
|
Note: In statically-linked executables, this will cause
|
|
your program to include support for every format.
|
|
If executable size is a concern, you may wish to avoid
|
|
using this function.
|
|
.It Fn archive_read_support_format_empty
|
|
Enables support for treating empty files as empty archives.
|
|
Because empty files are valid for several different formats,
|
|
it is not possible to accurately determine a format for
|
|
an empty file based purely on contents.
|
|
So empty files are treated by libarchive as a distinct
|
|
format.
|
|
.It Fn archive_read_support_format_raw
|
|
The
|
|
.Dq raw
|
|
format handler allows libarchive to be used to read arbitrary data.
|
|
It treats any data stream as an archive with a single entry.
|
|
The pathname of this entry is
|
|
.Dq data ;
|
|
all other entry fields are unset.
|
|
This is not enabled by
|
|
.Fn archive_read_support_format_all
|
|
in order to avoid erroneous handling of damaged archives.
|

|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
These functions return
|
|
.Cm ARCHIVE_OK
|
|
on success, or
|
|
.Cm ARCHIVE_FATAL .
|
|

|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
Detailed error codes and textual descriptions are available from the
|
|
.Fn archive_errno
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn archive_error_string
|
|
functions.

.Sh BUGS
|
|
Many traditional archiver programs treat
|
|
empty files as valid empty archives.
|
|
For example, many implementations of
|
|
.Xr tar 1
|
|
allow you to append entries to an empty file.
|
|
Of course, it is impossible to determine the format of an empty file
|
|
by inspecting the contents, so this library treats empty files as
|
|
having a special
|
|
.Dq empty
|
|
format.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Using the
|
|
.Dq raw
|
|
handler together with any other handler will often work
|
|
but can produce surprising results.
