ZIP_ERROR_SET(3)

✨ ZIP_ERROR_SET(3) ✨

okay bestie, we're in the Library Functions Manual section, and this one is short but SO important, like the little function that could 💖

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

zip_error_set — fill in zip_error structure

no cap, that's literally all it does and it does it flawlessly 💅

---

📚 LIBRARY 📚

libzip (-lzip)

link against her or she will NOT work, periodt 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <zip.h>

void
zip_error_set(zip_error_t *ze, int le, int se);

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

okay so. the zip_error_set() function sets the zip_error pointed to by ze to the libzip error code le and the system error code se. that's it. that's the whole vibe. two little codes, one struct, slay ✨

🚨 IMPORTANT BESTIE: ze must be allocated and initialized with zip_error_init(3) before you call zip_error_set(). do not skip this step. do not pass in some random uninitialized struct and hope for the best, because it's giving undefined behaviour energy and we are NOT about that life 😭
