PHP 7.0.6 Released

    zip_entry_open

    (PHP 4 >= 4.1.0, PHP 5 >= 5.2.0, PHP 7, PECL zip >= 1.0.0)

    zip_entry_open — Open a directory entry for reading

    Description

    bool zip_entry_open ( resource $zip , resource $zip_entry [, string $mode ] )

    Opens a directory entry in a zip file for reading.

    Parameters

    zip

    A valid resource handle returned by zip_open().

    zip_entry

    A directory entry returned by zip_read().

    mode

    Any of the modes specified in the documentation of fopen().

    Note:

    Currently, mode is ignored and is always "rb". This is due to the fact that zip support in PHP is read only access.

    Return Values

    Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

    Note:

    Unlike fopen() and other similar functions, the return value of zip_entry_open() only indicates the result of the operation and is not needed for reading or closing the directory entry.

    'rb' is a valid mode, and means Read-Only Binary Mode.  This mode is used for portability reasons (see fopen).
