(), (), (), (), (), (), (), (), (), (), (),
The resulting archive will be compressed as specified. Note that the compressed output is always properly blocked.
(), (),
The output will be encoded as specified. The encoded output is always properly blocked.
()
This is never necessary. It is provided only for backwards compatibility.
()
The archive will be fed into the specified compression program. The output of that program is blocked and written to the client write callbacks.

These functions return ARCHIVE_OK on success, or ARCHIVE_FATAL.

Detailed error codes and textual descriptions are available from the archive_errno() and archive_error_string() functions.
