+the most basic expects you to provide pointers to several +functions that can provide blocks of bytes from the archive. +There are convenience forms that allow you to +specify a filename, file descriptor, +.Ft "FILE *" +object, or a block of memory from which to read the archive data. +Note that the core library makes no assumptions about the +size of the blocks read; +callback functions are free to read whatever block size is +most appropriate for the medium. +.\" +.Ss Consume archive +See +.Xr archive_read_header 3 , +.Xr archive_read_data 3 +and +.Xr archive_read_extract 3 . +.Pp +Each archive entry consists of a header followed by a certain +amount of data. +You can obtain the next header with +.Fn archive_read_next_header , +which returns a pointer to an +.Tn struct archive_entry +structure with information about the current archive element. +If the entry is a regular file, then the header will be followed +by the file data. +You can use +.Fn archive_read_data +(which works much like the +.Xr read 2 +system call) +to read this data from the archive, or +.Fn archive_read_data_block +which provides a slightly more efficient interface. +You may prefer to use the higher-level +.Fn archive_read_data_skip , +which reads and discards the data for this entry, +.Fn archive_read_data_to_file , +which copies the data to the provided file descriptor, or +.Fn archive_read_extract , +which recreates the specified entry on disk and copies data +from the archive. +In particular, note that +.Fn archive_read_extract +uses the +.Tn struct archive_entry +structure that you provide it, which may differ from the +entry just read from the archive. +In particular, many applications will want to override the +pathname, file permissions, or ownership. +.\" +.Ss Release resources +See +.Xr archive_read_free 3 . +.Pp +Once you have finished reading data from the archive, you +should call +.Fn archive_read_close +to close the archive, then call +.Fn archive_read_free +to release all resources, including all memory allocated by the library. +.\" +.Sh EXAMPLE +The following illustrates basic usage of the library. +In this example, +the callback functions are simply wrappers around the standard +.Xr open 2 , +.Xr read 2 , +and +.Xr close 2 +system calls. +.Bd -literal -offset indent +void +list_archive(const char *name) +{ + struct mydata *mydata;
