The <code class="Fn">zip_fopen_encrypted</code>() function opens the encrypted
file name <var class="Ar">fname</var> in <var class="Ar">archive</var> using
the password given in the <var class="Ar">password</var> argument. If
<var class="Ar">password</var> is <code class="Dv">NULL</code> or the empty
string, the default password is used (see
<a class="Xr" href="zip_set_default_password.html">zip_set_default_password(3)</a>).
The <var class="Ar">flags</var> argument are the same as for
<a class="Xr" href="zip_fopen.html">zip_fopen(3)</a>.
<p class="Pp">The <code class="Fn">zip_fopen_index_encrypted</code>() function
opens the file at position <var class="Ar">index</var>, see
<a class="Xr" href="zip_fopen_index.html">zip_fopen_index(3)</a>. These
functions are called automatically by
<a class="Xr" href="zip_fopen.html">zip_fopen(3)</a>; you only need to call
them if you want to specify a non-default password (see
<a class="Xr" href="zip_set_default_password.html">zip_set_default_password(3)</a>).</p>

Upon successful completion, a <var class="Ft">struct zip_file</var> pointer is
returned. Otherwise, <code class="Dv">NULL</code> is returned and the error
code in <var class="Ar">archive</var> is set to indicate the error.

The zip file format provides very limited possibility for password verification
(a short hash of is compared against one byte in the zip archive). For this
reason, reading a file while using an incorrect password may immediately fail
with <code class="Er">ZIP_ER_WRONGPASSWD</code>, but if the mismatch is not
detected, a zlib error may be returned later instead. Since zlib errors can
also be caused by broken compressed data, there is no way to make sure if the
password was incorrect or if it was correct, but the compressed data was
invalid.
