zip_set_default_password — set default password for encrypted files in zip
Contents
Description
The zip_set_default_password() function sets the default password used when accessing encrypted files.
If password is NULL or the empty string, the default password is unset.
If you prefer a different password for single files, use zip_fopen_encrypted(3) instead of zip_fopen(3).
Usually, however, the same password is used for every file in an zip archive.
The password is not verified when calling this function. See the “CAVEATS” section in
zip_fopen_encrypted(3) for more details about password handling.
