If .Ar password is .Dv NULL or the empty string, the default password is used (see .Xr zip_set_default_password 3 ) . The .Ar flags argument are the same as for .Xr zip_fopen 3 . .Pp The .Fn zip_fopen_index_encrypted function opens the file at position .Ar index , see .Xr zip_fopen_index 3 . These functions are called automatically by .Xr zip_fopen 3 ; you only need to call them if you want to specify a non-default password (see .Xr zip_set_default_password 3 ) . .Sh RETURN VALUES Upon successful completion, a .Ft struct zip_file pointer is returned. Otherwise, .Dv NULL is returned and the error code in .Ar archive is set to indicate the error. .Sh ERRORS .Bl -tag -width ZIP_ER_ENCRNOTSUPPXX .It Bq Er ZIP_ER_NOPASSWD No password was provided. .El .Pp The function .Fn zip_fopen_encrypted may also fail and set .Va zip_err for any of the errors specified for the routine .Xr zip_fopen 3 . .Pp The function .Fn zip_fopen_index_encrypted may also fail and set .Va zip_err for any of the errors specified for the routine .Xr zip_fopen_index 3 . .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr libzip 3 , .Xr zip_fclose 3 , .Xr zip_fopen 3 , .Xr zip_fread 3 , .Xr zip_get_num_entries 3 , .Xr zip_name_locate 3 .Sh HISTORY .Fn zip_fopen_encrypted and .Fn zip_fopen_index_encrypted were added in libzip 1.0. .Sh AUTHORS .An -nosplit .An Dieter Baron Aq Mt dillo@nih.at and .An Thomas Klausner Aq Mt tk@giga.or.at .Sh CAVEATS The zip file format provides very limited possibility for password verification (a short hash of is compared against one byte in the zip archive). For this reason, reading a file while using an incorrect password may immediately fail with .Er ZIP_ER_WRONGPASSWD , but if the mismatch is not detected, a zlib error may be returned later instead. Since zlib errors can also be caused by broken compressed data, there is no way to make sure if the password was incorrect or if it was correct, but the compressed data was invalid.
