ZIP_SET_DEFAULT_PASSW... BSD Library Functions Manual ZIP_SET_DEFAULT_PASSW...


NAME

     zip_set_default_password -- set default password for encrypted files in
     zip


LIBRARY

     libzip (-lzip)


SYNOPSIS

     #include <zip.h>

     int
     zip_set_default_password(zip_t *archive, const char *password);


DESCRIPTION

     The zip_set_default_password() function sets the default password used
     when accessing encrypted files.  If password is NULL or the empty string,
     the default password is unset.

     If you prefer a different password for single files, use
     zip_fopen_encrypted(3) instead of zip_fopen(3).  Usually, however, the
     same password is used for every file in an zip archive.

     The password is not verified when calling this function.  See the CAVEATS
     section in zip_fopen_encrypted(3) for more details about password han-
     dling.


RETURN VALUES

     Upon successful completion 0 is returned.  Otherwise, -1 is returned and
     the error information in archive is set to indicate the error.


ERRORS

     zip_set_default_password() fails if:

     [ZIP_ER_MEMORY]    Required memory could not be allocated.
