# NAME

`zip_file` — file in archive

# LIBRARY

libzip (-lzip)

# SYNOPSIS

`#include <zip.h>`

zip_file_t *file;

# DESCRIPTION

A `zip_file` represents a file inside an archive, opened for reading. It is created with zip_fopen(3), zip_fopen_index(3), zip_fopen_encrypted(3), or zip_fopen_index_encrypted(3).

Data is accessed with zip_fread(3), zip_file_is_seekable(3), zip_ftell(3), or zip_fseek(3).

It is closed with zip_fclose(3).

If the containing zip_t is closed, all further uses of the zip_file_t return an error. It is a convenience wrapper around a zip_source_t as created by zip_source_zip(3).
