DESCRIPTION

These functions create and manipulate data objects that represent entries within an archive. You can think of a struct archive_entry as a heavy-duty version of struct stat it includes everything from struct stat plus associated pathname, textual group and user names, etc. These objects are used by libarchive(3) to represent the metadata associated with a particular entry in an archive.

Create and Destroy

There are functions to allocate, destroy, clear, and copy archive_entry objects:
Fn archive_entry_clear
Erases the object, resetting all internal fields to the same state as a newly-created object. This is provided to allow you to quickly recycle objects without thrashing the heap.
Fn archive_entry_clone
A deep copy operation; all text fields are duplicated.
Fn archive_entry_free
Releases the struct archive_entry object.
Fn archive_entry_new
Allocate and return a blank struct archive_entry object.

Set and Get Functions

Most of the functions here set or read entries in an object. Such functions have one of the following forms:
Fn archive_entry_set_XXXX
Stores the provided data in the object. In particular, for strings, the pointer is stored, not the referenced string.
Fn archive_entry_copy_XXXX
As above, except that the referenced data is copied into the object.
Fn archive_entry_XXXX
Returns the specified data. In the case of strings, a const-qualified pointer to the string is returned.

String data can be set or accessed as wide character strings or normal char strings. The functions that use wide character strings are suffixed with _w Note that these are different representations of the same data: For example, if you store a narrow string and read the corresponding wide string, the object will transparently convert formats using the current locale. Similarly, if you store a wide string and then store a narrow string for the same data, the previously-set wide string will be discarded in favor of the new data.

There are a few set/get functions that merit additional description:

Fn archive_entry_set_link
This function sets the symlink field if it is already set. Otherwise, it sets the hardlink field.

File Flags

File flags are transparently converted between a bitmap representation and a textual format. For example, if you set the bitmap and ask for text, the library will build a canonical text format. However, if you set a text format and request a text format, you will get back the same text, even if it is ill-formed. If you need to canonicalize a textual flags string, you should first set the text form, then request the bitmap form, then use that to set the bitmap form. Setting the bitmap format will clear the internal text representation and force it to be reconstructed when you next request the text form.

The bitmap format consists of two integers, one containing bits that should be set, the other specifying bits that should be cleared. Bits not mentioned in either bitmap will be ignored. Usually, the bitmap of bits to be cleared will be set to zero. In unusual circumstances, you can force a fully-specified set of file flags by setting the bitmap of flags to clear to the complement of the bitmap of flags to set. (This differs from fflagstostr(3), which only includes names for set bits.) Converting a bitmap to a textual string is a platform-specific operation; bits that are not meaningful on the current platform will be ignored.

The canonical text format is a comma-separated list of flag names. The Fn archive_entry_copy_fflags_text_w function parses the provided text and sets the internal bitmap values. This is a platform-specific operation; names that are not meaningful on the current platform will be ignored. The function returns a pointer to the start of the first name that was not recognized, or NULL if every name was recognized. Note that every name--including names that follow an unrecognized name--will be evaluated, and the bitmaps will be set to reflect every name that is recognized. (In particular, this differs from strtofflags(3), which stops parsing at the first unrecognized name.)

ACL Handling

XXX This needs serious help. XXX

An ``Access Control List'' (ACL) is a list of permissions that grant access to particular users or groups beyond what would normally be provided by standard POSIX mode bits. The ACL handling here addresses some deficiencies in the POSIX.1e draft 17 ACL specification. In particular, POSIX.1e draft 17 specifies several different formats, but none of those formats include both textual user/group names and numeric UIDs/GIDs.
