Zig 0.17.0-dev (Split by item)

This is an example of documentation generated by ZigDoc, an alternative to Zig's built-in Auto Doc feature. See also examples in other modes/formats. The project being documented here (as the example) is the Zig library itself.

finishPedantically

According to the specification, tar should finish with two zero blocks, but "reasonable system must not assume that such a block exists when reading an archive". Therefore, the Zig standard library recommends to not call this function.

Writer.finishPedantically
pub fn finishPedantically(w: *Writer) Io.Writer.Error!void

File

lib/std/tar/Writer.zig:179

Code

pub fn finishPedantically(w: *Writer) Io.Writer.Error!void {
    try w.underlying_writer.splatByteAll(0, block_size * 2);
}
