ZIP_FREAD(3) FreeBSD Library Functions Manual ZIP_FREAD(3)
NAME
zip_fread - read from file
LIBRARY
libzip (-lzip)
SYNOPSIS
#include <zip.h>
zip_int64_t
zip_fread(zip_file_t *file, void *buf, zip_uint64_t nbytes);
DESCRIPTION
The zip_fread() function reads up to nbytes bytes from file into buf from
the current position in the file (see zip_fseek(3)). After reading, the
current position is updated by the number of bytes read.
RETURN VALUES
If successful, the number of bytes actually read is returned. When
zip_fread() is called after reaching the end of the file, 0 is returned.
In case of error, -1 is returned.

HISTORY
zip_fread() was added in libzip 0.6. In libzip 0.10 the return type was
changed from ssize_t to zip_int64_t. In libzip 0.10 the type of nbytes
was changed from size_t to zip_uint64_t.
