.SH SYNOPSIS
|

.ad l
|
||

\fB#include <archive.h>\fP
|
||
|

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
.ad l
|
||
|
.RS 5
|
||
|
.TP
|
||
|
\fB\%archive_write_data\fP()
|
||
|
Write data corresponding to the header just written.
|
||
|
.TP
|
||
|
\fB\%archive_write_data_block\fP()
|
||
|
Write data corresponding to the header just written.
|
||
|
This is like
|
||
|
\fB\%archive_write_data\fP()
|
||
|
except that it performs a seek on the file being
|
||
|
written to the specified offset before writing the data.
|
||
|
This is useful when restoring sparse files from archive
|
||
|
formats that support sparse files.
|
||
|
Returns number of bytes written or -1 on error.
|
||
|
(Note: This is currently not supported for
|
||
|
Tn archive_write
|
||
|
handles, only for
|
||
|
Tn archive_write_disk
|
||
|
handles.
|

.RE

|
.SH RETURN VALUES
|
||
|
.ad l
|
||
|
This function returns the number of bytes actually written, or
|
||
|
a negative error code on error.
|
||
|
.SH ERRORS
|
||
|
.ad l
|
||
|
Detailed error codes and textual descriptions are available from the
|
||
|
\fB\%archive_errno\fP()
|
||
|
and
|
||
|
\fB\%archive_error_string\fP()
|
||
|
functions.
|
||
|
.SH BUGS
|
||
|
.ad l
|
||
|
In libarchive 3.x, this function sometimes returns
|
||
|
zero on success instead of returning the number of bytes written.
|
||
|
Specifically, this occurs when writing to an
|
||
|
Vt archive_write_disk
|
||
|
handle.
|
||
|
Clients should treat any value less than zero as an error
|
||
|
and consider any non-negative value as success.
