GnuTarEntry(TarEntryType, String)

Initializes a new GnuTarEntry instance with the specified entry type and entry name.

GnuTarEntry(TarEntry)

Source:
GnuTarEntry.cs
Source:
GnuTarEntry.cs
Source:
GnuTarEntry.cs
Source:
GnuTarEntry.cs

Initializes a new GnuTarEntry instance by converting the specified other entry into the GNU format.

public:
 GnuTarEntry(System::Formats::Tar::TarEntry ^ other);
public GnuTarEntry(System.Formats.Tar.TarEntry other);
new System.Formats.Tar.GnuTarEntry : System.Formats.Tar.TarEntry -> System.Formats.Tar.GnuTarEntry
Public Sub New (other As TarEntry)

Parameters

other
TarEntry

The TarEntry instance to convert to the GNU format.

Exceptions

other is a PaxGlobalExtendedAttributesTarEntry instance.

-or-

The entry type of other is not supported in the GNU format.

Remarks

When creating an instance of GnuTarEntry using this constructor, if other is Gnu or Pax, then the AccessTime and ChangeTime properties are set to the same values set in other. But if other is of any other format, then AccessTime and ChangeTime are set to default, which in the entry header atime and ctime fields is written as null bytes. This ensures compatibility with other tools that are unable to read the atime and ctime in Gnu entries, as these two fields are not POSIX compatible because other formats expect the prefix field in the same header location where Gnu writes atime and ctime.
