Path names supported by archive_entry(3):

hardlink
Destination of the hardlink.
link
Update only. For a symlink, update the destination. Otherwise, make the entry a hardlink and alter the destination for that.
pathname
Path in the archive
sourcepath
Path on the disk for use by archive_read_disk(3).
symlink
Destination of the symbolic link.

Path names can be provided in one of three different ways:

char *
Multibyte strings in the current locale.
wchar_t *
Wide character strings in the current locale. The accessor functions are named ().
UTF-8
Unicode strings encoded as UTF-8. These are convenience functions to update both the multibyte and wide character strings at the same time.

The sourcepath is a pure filesystem concept and never stored in an archive directly.

For that reason, it is only available as multibyte string. The link path is a convenience function for conditionally setting hardlink or symlink destination. It doesn't have a corresponding get accessor function.

() is an alias for ().
