/**
 * @mainpage
 *
 * This is the documentation for the library interface of wimlib 1.9.0, a C
 * library for creating, modifying, extracting, and mounting files in the
 * Windows Imaging Format.  This documentation is intended for developers only.
 * If you have installed wimlib and want to know how to use the @b wimlib-imagex
 * program, please see the manual pages and also the <a
 * href="https://wimlib.net/gitlist/wimlib/blob/master/README">README
 * file</a>.
 *
 * @section sec_installing Installing
 *
 * @subsection UNIX
 *
 * Download the source code from https://wimlib.net.  Install the library by
 * running <c>configure && make && sudo make install</c>.  See the README for
 * information about configuration options.  To use wimlib in your program after
 * installing it, include wimlib.h and link your program with <c>-lwim</c>.
 *
 * @subsection Windows
 *
 * Download the Windows binary distribution with the appropriate architecture
 * (i686 or x86_64 --- also called "x86" and "amd64" respectively) from
 * https://wimlib.net.  Link your program with the libwim-15.dll file.  Make
 * sure to also download the source code so you can get wimlib.h, as it is not
 * included in the binary distribution.  If you need to access the DLL from
 * other programming languages, note that the calling convention is "cdecl".
 *
 * @section sec_examples Examples
 *
 * Several examples are located in the "examples" directory of the source
 * distribution.
 *
 * There is also the <a
 * href="https://wimlib.net/gitlist/wimlib/blob/master/programs/imagex.c">
 * source code of <b>wimlib-imagex</b></a>, which is complicated but uses most
 * capabilities of wimlib.
 *
 * @section backwards_compatibility Backwards Compatibility
 *
 * New releases of wimlib are intended to be API/ABI compatible with old
 * releases, except when the libtool "age" is reset.  This most recently
 * occurred for the v1.4.0 (libwim7), v1.5.0 (libwim9), and v1.7.0 (libwim15)
 * releases.  However, the library is becoming increasingly stable, and the goal
 * is to maintain the current API/ABI for as long as possible unless there is a
 * strong reason not to.  Even for the v1.7.0 release (libwim15), the changes
 * were fairly limited.
 *
 * As with any other library, applications should not rely on internal
 * implementation details that may be subject to change.
 *
 * @section sec_basic_wim_handling_concepts Basic WIM handling concepts
 *
 * wimlib wraps up a WIM file in an opaque ::WIMStruct structure.   There are
 * two ways to create such a structure: wimlib_open_wim(), which opens a WIM
 * file and creates a ::WIMStruct representing it, and wimlib_create_new_wim(),
 * which creates a new ::WIMStruct that initially contains no images and does
 * not yet have a backing on-disk file.  See @ref G_creating_and_opening_wims
 * for more details.
 *
 * A WIM file, represented by a ::WIMStruct, contains zero or more images.
 * Images can be extracted (or "applied") using wimlib_extract_image(), added
 * (or "captured" or "appended") using wimlib_add_image(), deleted using
 * wimlib_delete_image(), exported using wimlib_export_image(), and updated or
 * modified using wimlib_update_image().  However, changes made to a WIM
 * represented by a ::WIMStruct have no persistent effect until the WIM is
 * actually written to an on-disk file.  This can be done using wimlib_write(),
 * but if the WIM was originally opened using wimlib_open_wim(), then
 * wimlib_overwrite() can be used instead.  See @ref G_extracting_wims, @ref
 * G_modifying_wims, and @ref G_writing_and_overwriting_wims for more details.
 *
 * Note that with this ::WIMStruct abstraction, performing many tasks on WIM
 * files is a multi-step process.  For example, to add, or "append" an image to
 * an existing stand-alone WIM file in a way similar to <b>wimlib-imagex
 * append</b>, you must call the following functions:
 *
 * 1. wimlib_open_wim()
 * 2. wimlib_add_image()
 * 3. wimlib_overwrite()
 *
 * This design is very much on purpose as it makes the library more useful in
 * general by allowing functions to be composed in different ways.  For example,
 * you can make multiple changes to a WIM and commit them all to the backing
 * file in only one overwrite operation, which is more efficient.
 *
 * Note: before calling any other function declared in wimlib.h,
 * wimlib_global_init() can (and in some cases, must) be called.  See its
 * documentation for more details.
 *
 * @section sec_cleaning_up Cleaning up
 *
 * After you are done with any ::WIMStruct, you can call wimlib_free() to free
 * all resources associated with it.  Also, when you are completely done with
 * using wimlib in your program, you can call wimlib_global_cleanup() to free
 * any other resources allocated by the library.
 *
 * @section sec_error_handling Error Handling
 *
 * Most functions in wimlib return 0 on success and a positive
 * ::wimlib_error_code value on failure.  Use wimlib_get_error_string() to get a
 * string that describes an error code.  wimlib also can print error messages to
 * standard error itself when an error happens, and these may be more
 * informative than the error code; to enable this, call
 * wimlib_set_print_errors().  Please note that this is for convenience only,
 * and some errors can occur without a message being printed.  Currently, error
 * messages and strings (as well as all documentation, for that matter) are only
 * available in English.
 *
 * @section sec_encodings Locales and character encodings
 *
 * To support Windows as well as UNIX-like systems, wimlib's API typically takes
 * and returns strings of ::wimlib_tchar, which are in a platform-dependent
 * encoding.
 *
 * On Windows, each ::wimlib_tchar is 2 bytes and is the same as a "wchar_t",
 * and the encoding is UTF-16LE.
 *
 * On UNIX-like systems, each ::wimlib_tchar is 1 byte and is simply a "char",
 * and the encoding is the locale-dependent multibyte encoding.  I recommend you
 * set your locale to a UTF-8 capable locale to avoid any issues.  Also, by
 * default, wimlib on UNIX will assume the locale is UTF-8 capable unless you
 * call wimlib_global_init() after having set your desired locale.
 *
 * @section sec_advanced Additional information and features
 *
 *
 * @subsection subsec_mounting_wim_images Mounting WIM images
 *
 * See @ref G_mounting_wim_images.
 *
 * @subsection subsec_progress_functions Progress Messages
 *
 * See @ref G_progress.
 *
 * @subsection subsec_non_standalone_wims Non-standalone WIMs
 *
 * See @ref G_nonstandalone_wims.
 *
 * @subsection subsec_pipable_wims Pipable WIMs
 *
 * wimlib supports a special "pipable" WIM format which unfortunately is @b not
 * compatible with Microsoft's software.  To create a pipable WIM, call
 * wimlib_write(), wimlib_write_to_fd(), or wimlib_overwrite() with
 * ::WIMLIB_WRITE_FLAG_PIPABLE specified.  Pipable WIMs are pipable in both
 * directions, so wimlib_write_to_fd() can be used to write a pipable WIM to a
 * pipe, and wimlib_extract_image_from_pipe() can be used to apply an image from
 * a pipable WIM.  wimlib can also transparently open and operate on pipable WIM
 * s using a seekable file descriptor using the regular function calls (e.g.
 * wimlib_open_wim(), wimlib_extract_image()).
 *
 * See the documentation for the <b>--pipable</b> flag of <b>wimlib-imagex
 * capture</b> for more information about pipable WIMs.
 *
 * @subsection subsec_thread_safety Thread Safety
 *
 * A ::WIMStruct is not thread-safe and cannot be accessed by multiple threads
 * concurrently, even for "read-only" operations such as extraction.  However,
 * users are free to use <i>different</i> ::WIMStruct's from different threads
 * concurrently.  It is even allowed for multiple ::WIMStruct's to be backed by
 * the same on-disk WIM file, although "overwrites" should never be done in such
 * a scenario.
 *
 * In addition, several functions change global state and should only be called
 * when a single thread is active in the library.  These functions are:
 *
 * - wimlib_global_init()
 * - wimlib_global_cleanup()
 * - wimlib_set_memory_allocator()
 * - wimlib_set_print_errors()
 * - wimlib_set_error_file()
 * - wimlib_set_error_file_by_name()
 *
 * @subsection subsec_limitations Limitations
 *
 * This section documents some technical limitations of wimlib not already
 * described in the documentation for @b wimlib-imagex.
 *
 * - The old WIM format from Vista pre-releases is not supported.
 * - wimlib does not provide a clone of the @b PEImg tool, or the @b DISM
 *   functionality other than that already present in @b ImageX, that allows you
 *   to make certain Windows-specific modifications to a Windows PE image, such
 *   as adding a driver or Windows component.  Such a tool could be implemented
 *   on top of wimlib.
 *
 * @subsection more_info More information
 *
 * You are advised to read the README as well as the documentation for
 * <b>wimlib-imagex</b>, since not all relevant information is repeated here in
 * the API documentation.

 *
 * @section sec_adding_images Capturing and adding WIM images
 *
 * As described in @ref sec_basic_wim_handling_concepts, capturing a new WIM or
 * appending an image to an existing WIM is a multi-step process, but at its
 * core is wimlib_add_image() or an equivalent function.  Normally,
 * wimlib_add_image() takes an on-disk directory tree and logically adds it to a
 * ::WIMStruct as a new image.  However, when supported by the build of the
 * library, there is also a special NTFS volume capture mode (entered when
 * ::WIMLIB_ADD_FLAG_NTFS is specified) that allows adding the image directly
 * from an unmounted NTFS volume.
 *
 * Another function, wimlib_add_image_multisource() is also provided.  It
 * generalizes wimlib_add_image() to allow combining multiple files or directory
 * trees into a single WIM image in a configurable way.
 *
 * For maximum customization of WIM image creation, it is also possible to add a
 * completely empty WIM image with wimlib_add_empty_image(), then update it with
 * wimlib_update_image().  (This is in fact what wimlib_add_image() and
 * wimlib_add_image_multisource() do internally.)
 *
 * Note that some details of how image addition/capture works are documented
 * more fully in the documentation for <b>wimlib-imagex capture</b>.
 *
 * @section sec_deleting_images Deleting WIM images
 *
 * wimlib_delete_image() can delete an image from a ::WIMStruct.  But as usual,
 * wimlib_write() or wimlib_overwrite() must be called to cause the changes to
 * be made persistent in an on-disk WIM file.
 *
 * @section sec_exporting_images Exporting WIM images
 *
 * wimlib_export_image() can copy, or "export", an image from one WIM to
 * another.
 *
 * @section sec_other_modifications Other modifications
 *
 * wimlib_update_image() can add, delete, and rename files in a WIM image.
 *
 * wimlib_set_image_name(), wimlib_set_image_descripton(),
 * wimlib_set_image_flags(), and wimlib_set_image_property() can change other
 * image metadata.
 *
 * wimlib_set_wim_info() can change information about the WIM file itself, such
 * as the boot index.
 */

/** @defgroup G_extracting_wims Extracting WIMs
 *
 * @brief Extract files, directories, and images from a WIM.
 *
 * wimlib_extract_image() extracts, or "applies", an image from a WIM,
 * represented by a ::WIMStruct.  This normally extracts the image to a
 * directory, but when supported by the build of the library there is also a
 * special NTFS volume extraction mode (entered when ::WIMLIB_EXTRACT_FLAG_NTFS
 * is specified) that allows extracting a WIM image directly to an unmounted
 * NTFS volume.  Various other flags allow further customization of image
 * extraction.
 *
 * wimlib_extract_paths() and wimlib_extract_pathlist() allow extracting a list
 * of (possibly wildcard) paths from a WIM image.
 *
 * wimlib_extract_image_from_pipe() extracts an image from a pipable WIM sent
 * over a pipe; see @ref subsec_pipable_wims.
 *
 * Some details of how WIM extraction works are described more fully in the
 * documentation for <b>wimlib-imagex apply</b> and <b>wimlib-imagex
 * extract</b>.
 */

/** @defgroup G_mounting_wim_images Mounting WIM images
 *
 * @brief Mount and unmount WIM images.
 *
 * On Linux, wimlib supports mounting images from WIM files either read-only or
 * read-write.  To mount an image, call wimlib_mount_image().  To unmount an
 * image, call wimlib_unmount_image().  Mounting can be done without root
 * privileges because it is implemented using FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace).
 *
 * If wimlib is compiled using the <c>--without-fuse</c> flag, these functions
 * will be available but will fail with ::WIMLIB_ERR_UNSUPPORTED.
 *
 * Note: if mounting is unsupported, wimlib still provides another way to modify
 * a WIM image (wimlib_update_image()).
 */

/**
 * @defgroup G_progress Progress Messages
 *
 * @brief Track the progress of long WIM operations.
 *
 * Library users can provide a progress function which will be called
 * periodically during operations such as extracting a WIM image or writing a
 * WIM image.  A ::WIMStruct can have a progress function of type
 * ::wimlib_progress_func_t associated with it by calling
 * wimlib_register_progress_function() or by opening the ::WIMStruct using
 * wimlib_open_wim_with_progress().  Once this is done, the progress function
 * will be called automatically during many operations, such as
 * wimlib_extract_image() and wimlib_write().
 *
 * Some functions that do not operate directly on a user-provided ::WIMStruct,
 * such as wimlib_join(), also take the progress function directly using an
 * extended version of the function, such as wimlib_join_with_progress().
 *
 * In wimlib v1.7.0 and later, progress functions are no longer just
 * unidirectional.  You can now return ::WIMLIB_PROGRESS_STATUS_ABORT to cause
 * the current operation to be aborted.  wimlib v1.7.0 also added the third
 * argument to ::wimlib_progress_func_t, which is a user-supplied context.
 */

/** @defgroup G_writing_and_overwriting_wims Writing and Overwriting WIMs
 *
 * @brief Create or update an on-disk WIM file.
 *
 * wimlib_write() creates a new on-disk WIM file, whereas wimlib_overwrite()
 * updates an existing WIM file.  See @ref sec_basic_wim_handling_concepts for
 * more information about the API design.
 */

/** @defgroup G_nonstandalone_wims Creating and handling non-standalone WIMs
 *
 * @brief Create and handle non-standalone WIMs, such as split and delta WIMs.
 *
 * A ::WIMStruct backed by an on-disk file normally represents a fully
 * standalone WIM archive.  However, WIM archives can also be arranged in
 * non-standalone ways, such as a set of on-disk files that together form a
 * single "split WIM" or "delta WIM".  Such arrangements are fully supported by
 * wimlib.  However, as a result, in such cases a ::WIMStruct created from one
 * of these on-disk files initially only partially represents the full WIM and
 * needs to, in effect, be logically combined with other ::WIMStruct's before
 * performing certain operations, such as extracting files with
 * wimlib_extract_image() or wimlib_extract_paths().  This is done by calling
 * wimlib_reference_resource_files() or wimlib_reference_resources().  Note: if
 * you fail to do so, you may see the error code
 * ::WIMLIB_ERR_RESOURCE_NOT_FOUND; this just indicates that data is not
 * available because the appropriate WIM files have not yet been referenced.
 *
 * wimlib_write() can create delta WIMs as well as standalone WIMs, but a
 * specialized function (wimlib_split()) is needed to create a split WIM.

 * 2. Otherwise we know the sha1_hash, the uncompressed_size, the

 *
 *    A. If the blob is located in a non-solid WIM resource, then we also know
 *       the compressed_size and offset.
 *
 *    B. If the blob is located in a solid WIM resource, then we also know the

 *      extraction mode.
 * @param target
 *      A null-terminated string which names the location to which the image(s)
 *      will be extracted.  By default, this is interpreted as a path to a

 * @retval ::WIMLIB_ERR_READLINK
 *      Failed to determine the target of a symbolic link in the WIM.
 * @retval ::WIMLIB_ERR_REPARSE_POINT_FIXUP_FAILED
 *      Failed to fix the target of an absolute symbolic link (e.g. if the
 *      target would have exceeded the maximum allowed length).  (Only if
 *      reparse data was supported by the extraction mode and

 *      image contains one or more files with short names, but extracting short

 *      does not support short names, while on non-Windows, this occurs if
 *      ::WIMLIB_EXTRACT_FLAG_NTFS was not specified in @p extract_flags.
 * @retval ::WIMLIB_ERR_WIMBOOT

 * intervening time.  This is designed to be used in incremental backups of the
 * same filesystem or directory tree.
 *
 * This function compares the metadata of the directory tree of the newly added
 * image against that of the old image.  Any files that are present in both the
 * newly added image and the old image and have timestamps that indicate they
 * haven't been modified are deemed not to have been modified and have their
 * checksums copied from the old image.  Because of this and because WIM uses
 * single-instance streams, such files need not be read from the filesystem when
 * the WIM is being written or overwritten.  Note that these unchanged files
 * will still be "archived" and will be logically present in the new image; the
 * optimization is that they don't need to actually be read from the filesystem
 * because the WIM already contains them.
 *
 * This function is provided to optimize incremental backups.  The resulting WIM
 * file will still be the same regardless of whether this function is called.
 * (This is, however, assuming that timestamps have not been manipulated or
 * unmaintained as to trick this function into thinking a file has not been
 * modified when really it has.  To partly guard against such cases, other
 * metadata such as file sizes will be checked as well.)

 *
 * @param ctype
 *      Compression type for which to create the compressor, as one of the
 *      ::wimlib_compression_type constants.
 * @param max_block_size
 *      The maximum compression block size to support.  This specifies the
 *      maximum allowed value for the @p uncompressed_size parameter of
 *      wimlib_compress() when called using this compressor.
 *      <br/>
 *      Usually, the amount of memory used by the compressor will scale in
 *      proportion to the @p max_block_size parameter.
 *      wimlib_get_compressor_needed_memory() can be used to query the specific
 *      amount of memory that will be required.
 *      <br/>
 *      This parameter must be at least 1 and must be less than or equal to a
 *      compression-type-specific limit.
 *      <br/>
 *      In general, the same value of @p max_block_size must be passed to
 *      wimlib_create_decompressor() when the data is later decompressed.
 *      However, some compression types have looser requirements regarding this.
 * @param compression_level
 *      The compression level to use.  If 0, the default compression level (50,
 *      or another value as set through wimlib_set_default_compression_level())
 *      is used.  Otherwise, a higher value indicates higher compression.  The
 *      values are scaled so that 10 is low compression, 50 is medium
 *      compression, and 100 is high compression.  This is not a percentage;
 *      values above 100 are also valid.
 *      <br/>
 *      Using a higher-than-default compression level can result in a better
 *      compression ratio, but can significantly reduce performance.  Similarly,
 *      using a lower-than-default compression level can result in better
 *      performance, but can significantly worsen the compression ratio.  The
 *      exact results will depend heavily on the compression type and what
 *      algorithms are implemented for it.  If you are considering using a
 *      non-default compression level, you should run benchmarks to see if it is
 *      worthwhile for your application.
 *      <br/>
 *      The compression level does not affect the format of the compressed data.
 *      Therefore, it is a compressor-only parameter and does not need to be
 *      passed to the decompressor.
 *      <br/>
 *      Since wimlib v1.8.0, this parameter can be OR-ed with the flag
 *      ::WIMLIB_COMPRESSOR_FLAG_DESTRUCTIVE.  This creates the compressor in a
 *      mode where it is allowed to modify the input buffer.  Specifically, in
 *      this mode, if compression succeeds, the input buffer may have been
 *      modified, whereas if compression does not succeed the input buffer still
 *      may have been written to but will have been restored exactly to its
 *      original state.  This mode is designed to save some memory when using
 *      large buffer sizes.
 * @param compressor_ret
 *      A location into which to return the pointer to the allocated compressor.
 *      The allocated compressor can be used for any number of calls to
 *      wimlib_compress() before being freed with wimlib_free_compressor().
