zzip_readdir(3)

💖 zzip_readdir — from the zziplib Function List, section 3 🎀

okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, and let me tell you about the little function that walks a zip like it's a real directory 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

zzip_readdir — read dir. that's it, that's the name, short and iconic 👑

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <zzip/lib.h>

ZZIP_DIRENT*
zzip_readdir(ZZIP_DIR* dir)

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea 🍓 — zzip_readdir is literally the equivalent of a readdir(2) call, except it works for a realdir or a zipfile that's referenced by the ZZIP_DIR you got back from zzip_opendir. same energy, different plumbing, no cap ✨

the ZZIP_DIR handle (you know, the one zzip_opendir hands you) actually contains a few more entries than what gets copied into the ZZIP_DIRENT. so like, don't go assuming every field is filled in, bestie 😭

the only valid fields in a ZZIP_DIRENT are:

• d_name — the file name 💖
• d_compr — compression
• d_csize — compressed size
• st_size — uncompressed size

⚠️ vibe check: those four are it. the rest of the struct is giving "decorative", not "reliable". only trust the ones listed above, fr fr.
