ZIP_SOURCE_WINDOW_CREATE(3)

NAME
zip_source_window_create - create zip data source overlay

LIBRARY
libzip (-lzip)

SYNOPSIS
#include <zip.h>

zip_source_t *
zip_source_window_create(zip_source_t *source, zip_uint64_t start, zip_int64_t len, zip_error_t *error);

DESCRIPTION
The zip_source_window_create() function create a zip source from an underlying zip source, restricting access to a particular window starting at byte start and having size len. If len is -1, the window spans to the end of the underlying source.

zip_source_window() and zip_source_window_create() don't take ownership of source. The caller is responsible for freeing it. (This is different to other layered sources.)

RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the created source is returned. Otherwise, NULL is returned and the error code in error is set to indicate the error.

ERRORS
zip_source_window_create() fails if:

[ZIP_ER_INVAL]
    src is NULL; there is an integer overflow adding start and len; or len is less than -1.

[ZIP_ER_MEMORY]
    Required memory could not be allocated.
