DESCRIPTION

Path names supported by archive_entry3:

hardlink: Destination of the hardlink.
link: Update only. For a symlink, update the destination. Otherwise, make the entry a hardlink and alter the destination for that.
pathname: Path in the archive
sourcepath: Path on the disk for use by archive_read_disk3.
symlink: Destination of the symbolic link.

Path names can be provided in one of three different ways:

char: Multibyte strings in the current locale.
wchar_t: Wide character strings in the current locale. The accessor functions are named Fn XXX_w .
UTF-8: Unicode strings encoded as UTF-8. This are convience functions to update both the multibyte and wide character strings at the same time.

The sourcepath is a pure filesystem concept and never stored in an archive directly.

For that reason, it is only available as multibyte string. The link path is a convience function for conditionally setting hardlink or symlink destination. It doesn't have a corresponding get accessor function.

Fn archive_entry_set_XXX is an alias for Fn archive_entry_copy_XXX .
