archive_write_finish_entry —
functions for creating archives
Streaming Archive Library (libarchive, -larchive)
#include <archive.h>
int
  
  archive_write_finish_entry(struct
    archive *);
Close out the entry just written. In particular, this writes out the final
  padding required by some formats. Ordinarily, clients never need to call this,
  as it is called automatically by
  archive_write_header() and
  archive_write_close() as needed. For
  archive_write_disk handles, this flushes pending file attribute changes like
  modification time.
This function returns ARCHIVE_OK on success, or one of
  several non-zero error codes for errors. Specific error codes include:
  ARCHIVE_RETRY for operations that might succeed if
  retried, ARCHIVE_WARN for unusual conditions that do
  not prevent further operations, and ARCHIVE_FATAL for
  serious errors that make remaining operations impossible.
Detailed error codes and textual descriptions are available from the
  archive_errno() and
  archive_error_string() functions.
