# NAME

`zip_get_archive_flag` —
get status flags for zip

# LIBRARY

libzip (-lzip)

# SYNOPSIS

`#include <zip.h>`

int
`zip_get_archive_flag`(zip_t *archive, zip_flags_t flag, zip_flags_t flags);

# DESCRIPTION

The `zip_get_archive_flag`() function returns if the flag flag is set for the archive archive. The archive flags might have been changed with `zip_set_archive_flag`(); if flags is set to `ZIP_FL_UNCHANGED`, the original unchanged flags are tested.

Supported flags are:

`ZIP_AFL_CREATE_OR_KEEP_FILE_FOR_EMPTY_ARCHIVE`
  If this flag is cleared, the archive file will be removed if the archive is empty. If it is set, an empty archive will be created, which is not recommended by the zip specification. This flag is always cleared unless explicitly set by the user with zip_set_archive_flag(3).
`ZIP_AFL_IS_TORRENTZIP`
  The archive is in torrentzip format.
`ZIP_AFL_RDONLY`
  The archive is read-only.
`ZIP_AFL_WANT_TORRENTZIP`
  If the flag is set, the archive will be written in torrentzip format. This flag is always cleared unless explicitly set by the user with zip_set_archive_flag(3).

# RETURN VALUES

`zip_get_archive_flag`() returns 1 if flag is set for archive, 0 if not, and -1 if an error occurred.
