# NAME

`zip_source_seek` — set read offset in zip source

# LIBRARY

libzip (-lzip)

# SYNOPSIS

`#include <zip.h>`

int
`zip_source_seek`(zip_source_t *source, zip_int64_t offset, int whence);

# DESCRIPTION

The function `zip_source_seek`() sets the current read offset for source. Just like in fseek(3), depending on the whence argument, the offset is counted relative from:

`SEEK_SET`
  start of file
`SEEK_CUR`
  current read offset in file
`SEEK_END`
  end of file

# RETURN VALUES

Upon successful completion 0 is returned. Otherwise, -1 is returned and the error information in source is set to indicate the error.

# HISTORY
