 *
 * \section intro Introduction
 *
 * This is the documentation for the library interface of wimlib 1.3.3.  If you
 * have installed wimlib and want to know how to use the @b wimlib-imagex
 * program, please see the man pages instead.  Also: the actual project page
 * where you can download the source code for the library is at <a
 * href="https://sourceforge.net/projects/wimlib">https://sourceforge.net/projects/wimlib</a>.
 *
 * wimlib is a C library to read, write, and mount archive files in the Windows
 * Imaging Format (WIM files).  These files are normally created using the
 * ImageX (@a imagex.exe) utility on Windows, but this library provides a free
 * implementation of ImageX for UNIX-based systems (and, since v1.3.0, for
 * Windows systems) and an API to allow other programs to read, write, and mount
 * WIM files.  wimlib is comparable to Microsoft's WIMGAPI, but was designed
 * independently and is not a clone of it.
 *
 * \section format WIM files
 *
 * A <b>Windows Imaging (WIM)</b> file is an archive.  Like some other archive
 * formats such as ZIP, files in WIM archives may be compressed.  WIM archives
 * support two Microsoft-specific compression formats:  @b LZX and @b XPRESS.
 * Both are based on LZ77 and Huffman encoding, and both are supported by
 * wimlib.
 *
 * Unlike ZIP files, WIM files can contain multiple independent toplevel
 * directory trees known as @a images.  While each image has its own metadata,
 * files are not duplicated for each image; instead, each file is included only
 * once in the entire WIM. Microsoft did this so that in one WIM file, they
 * could do things like have 5 different versions of Windows that are almost
 * exactly the same.
 *
 * Microsoft provides documentation for the WIM file format, XPRESS compression
 * format, and LZX compression format.  The XPRESS documentation is acceptable,
 * but the LZX documentation is not entirely correct, and the WIM documentation
 * itself is incomplete.
 *
 * A WIM file may be either stand-alone or split into multiple parts.
 *
 * \section ntfs NTFS support
 *
 * As of version 1.0.0, wimlib supports capturing and applying images directly
 * to NTFS volumes.  This was made possible with the help of libntfs-3g from the
 * NTFS-3g project.  This feature supports capturing and restoring NTFS-specific
 * data such as security descriptors, alternate data streams, and reparse point
 * data.

 * The code for NTFS image capture and image application is complete enough that
 * it is possible to apply an image from the "install.wim" contained in recent
 * Windows installation media (Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8) directly to a
 * NTFS volume, and then boot Windows from it after preparing the Boot
 * Configuration Data.  In addition, a Windows installation can be captured (or
 * backed up) into a WIM file, and then re-applied later.
 *
 * wimlib v1.3.0 and later also supports NTFS capture and apply in the native
 * Windows build, which works slightly differently and relies on native Win32
 * API calls rather than libntfs-3g.
 *
 * \section winpe Windows PE
 *
 * A major use for this library is to create customized images of Windows PE, the
 * Windows Preinstallation Environment, without having to rely on Windows.  Windows
 * PE is a lightweight version of Windows that can run entirely from memory and can
 * be used to install Windows from local media or a network drive or perform
 * maintenance.  Windows PE is the operating system that runs when you boot from
 * the Windows installation media.
 *
 * You can find Windows PE on the installation DVD for Windows Vista, Windows 7,
 * or Windows 8, in the file @c sources/boot.wim.  Windows PE can also be found
 * in the Windows Automated Installation Kit (WAIK), which is free to download
 * from Microsoft, inside the @c WinPE.cab file, which you can extract if you
 * install either the @c cabextract or @c p7zip programs.
 *
 * In addition, Windows installations and recovery partitions frequently contain a
 * WIM containing an image of the Windows Recovery Environment, which is similar to
 * Windows PE.
 *
 * \section starting Getting Started
 *
 * wimlib uses the GNU autotools, so it should be easy to install with
 * <code>configure && make && sudo make install</code>; however, please see the
 * README for more information about installing it.  To use wimlib in a program
 * after installing it, include @c wimlib.h and link your program with @c -lwim.
 *
 * wimlib wraps up a WIM file in an opaque ::WIMStruct structure.  A ::WIMStruct
 * may represent either a stand-alone WIM or one part of a split WIM.
 *
 * All functions in wimlib's public API are prefixed with @c wimlib.  Most
 * return an integer error code on failure.  Use wimlib_get_error_string() to
 * get a string that describes an error code.  wimlib also can print error
 * messages 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.
 *
 * wimlib is thread-safe as long as different ::WIMStruct's are used, except for
 * the following exceptions:
 * - wimlib_set_print_errors() and wimlib_set_memory_allocator() both apply globally.
 * - You also must call wimlib_global_init() in the main thread to avoid any
 *   race conditions with one-time allocations of memory.
 * - wimlib_mount_image(), while it can be used to mount multiple WIMs
 *   concurrently in the same process, will daemonize the entire process when it
 *   does so for the first time.  This includes changing the working directory
 *   to the root directory.
 *
 * To open an existing WIM, use wimlib_open_wim().
 *
 * To create a new WIM that initially contains no images, use
 * wimlib_create_new_wim().
 *
 * To add an image to a WIM file from a directory tree on your filesystem, call
 * wimlib_add_image().  This can be done with a ::WIMStruct gotten from
 * wimlib_open_wim() or from wimlib_create_new_wim().  wimlib_add_image() can
 * also capture a WIM image directly from a NTFS volume if you provide the
 * ::WIMLIB_ADD_FLAG_NTFS flag, provided that wimlib was not compiled with
 * the <code>--without-ntfs-3g</code> flag.
 *
 * To extract an image from a WIM file, call wimlib_extract_image().  You may
 * extract an image either to a directory or directly to a NTFS volume, the
 * latter of which will preserve NTFS-specific data such as security
 * descriptors.
 *
 * wimlib supports mounting WIM files either read-only or read-write.  Mounting
 * is done using wimlib_mount_image() and unmounting is done using
 * wimlib_unmount_image().  Mounting can be done without root privileges because
 * it is implemented using FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace).  If wimlib is
 * compiled with the <code>--without-fuse</code> flag, these functions will be
 * available but will fail with ::WIMLIB_ERR_UNSUPPORTED.
 *
 * After creating or modifying a WIM file, you can write it to a file using
 * wimlib_write().  Alternatively,  if the WIM was originally read from a file
 * (using wimlib_open_wim() rather than wimlib_create_new_wim()), you can use
 * wimlib_overwrite() to overwrite the original file.
 *
 * Please note: merely by calling wimlib_add_image() or many of the other
 * functions in this library that operate on ::WIMStruct's, you are @b not
 * modifying the WIM file on disk.  Changes are not saved until you explicitly
 * call wimlib_write() or wimlib_overwrite().
 *
 * After you are done with the WIM file, use wimlib_free() to free all memory
 * associated with a ::WIMStruct and close all files associated with it.
 *
 * A number of functions take a pointer to a progress function of type
 * ::wimlib_progress_func_t.  This function will be called periodically during
 * the WIM operation(s) to report on the progress of the operation (for example,
 * how many bytes have been written so far).
 *
 * \section imagex wimlib-imagex
 *
 * wimlib comes with a command-line interface, the @b wimlib-imagex program.  It
 * is documented with man pages.  This program was originally just called @b
 * imagex, but has been changed to @b wimlib-imagex to avoid confusion with
 * Microsoft's @a imagex.exe (which would otherwise have exactly the same
 * filename on Windows).
 *
 * \section mkwinpeimg mkwinpeimg
 *
 * wimlib also comes with the <b>mkwinpeimg</b> script, which is documented in a
 * man page.
 *
 * \section encodings Locales and character encodings
 *
 * To support Windows as well as UNIX, 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, 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 Limitations
 *
 * While wimlib supports the main features of WIM files, wimlib currently has
 * the following limitations:
 * - There is no way to add, remove, modify, or extract specific files in a WIM
 *   without mounting it, other than by adding, removing, or extracting an
 *   entire image.  The FUSE mount feature should be used for this purpose.
 * - Currently, Microsoft's @a image.exe can create slightly smaller WIM files
 *   than wimlib (~2% or 3% smaller) when using maximum (LZX) compression.
 * - wimlib is experimental and likely contains bugs; use Microsoft's @a
 *   imagex.exe if you want to make sure your WIM files are made "correctly".
 * - The old WIM format from Vista pre-releases is not supported.
 * - Compressed resource chunk sizes other than 32768 are not supported,
 *   although this doesn't seem to be a problem because the chunk size always
 *   seems to be this value.
 * - wimlib does not provide a clone of the @b PEImg tool 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 conceivably be
 *   implemented on top of wimlib, although it likely would be hard to implement
 *   because it would have to do very Windows-specific things such as
 *   manipulating the driver store.  wimlib does provide the @b mkwinpeimg
 *   script for a similar purpose, however.  With regards to adding drivers to
 *   Windows PE, you have the option of putting them anywhere in the Windows PE
 *   image, then loading them after boot using @b drvload.exe.
 * - Although wimlib 1.3.0 and later can be used on Windows as well as UNIX, the
 *   Windows build has some limitations compared to the UNIX build.
 *   (The differences are documented better in the man pages for
 *   @b wimlib-imagex than here.)

/**
 * Extracts an image, or all images, from a standalone or split WIM file to a
 * directory or a NTFS volume.
 *
 * Please see the manual page for the @c wimlib-imagex program for more
 * information about the "normal" extraction mode versus the NTFS extraction
 * mode (entered by providing flag ::WIMLIB_EXTRACT_FLAG_NTFS).
 *
 * Extraction is done with one thread.
 *
 * All extracted data is SHA1-summed, and ::WIMLIB_ERR_INVALID_RESOURCE_HASH is
 * returned if any resulting SHA1 message digests do not match the values
 * provided in the WIM file.  Therefore, if this function is successful, you can
 * be fairly sure that any compressed data in the WIM was uncompressed
 * correctly.
 *
 * @param wim
 *      Pointer to the ::WIMStruct for a standalone WIM file, or part 1 of a
 *      split WIM.
 * @param image
 *      The image to extract.  Can be the number of an image, or ::WIMLIB_ALL_IMAGES
 *      to specify that all images are to be extracted.  ::WIMLIB_ALL_IMAGES cannot
 *      be used if ::WIMLIB_EXTRACT_FLAG_NTFS is specified in @a extract_flags.
 * @param target
 *      Directory to extract the WIM image(s) to (created if it does not already
 *      exist); or, with ::WIMLIB_EXTRACT_FLAG_NTFS in @a extract_flags, the
 *      path to the unmounted NTFS volume to extract the image to.
 * @param extract_flags
 *      Bitwise OR of the flags prefixed with WIMLIB_EXTRACT_FLAG.
 *      <br/> <br/>
 *      If ::WIMLIB_EXTRACT_FLAG_NTFS is specified, @a target is interpreted as
 *      a NTFS volume to extract the image to.  The volume will be opened using
 *      NTFS-3g and the image will be extracted to the root of the NTFS volume.
 *      Otherwise, @a target is interpreted as a directory to extract the
 *      image(s) to.
 *      <br/> <br/>
 *      If ::WIMLIB_EXTRACT_FLAG_NTFS is not specified, one or none of
 *      ::WIMLIB_EXTRACT_FLAG_HARDLINK or ::WIMLIB_EXTRACT_FLAG_SYMLINK may be
 *      specified.  These flags cause extracted files that are identical to be
 *      hardlinked or symlinked together, depending on the flag.  These flags
 *      override the hard link groups that are specified in the WIM file itself.
 *      If ::WIMLIB_ALL_IMAGES is provided as the @a image parameter, files may be
 *      hardlinked or symlinked across images if a file is found to occur in
 *      more than one image.
 *      <br/> <br/>
 *      You may also specify the flag ::WIMLIB_EXTRACT_FLAG_VERBOSE to print the
 *      name of each file or directory as it is extracted.
 *      <br/> <br/>
 *      If ::WIMLIB_EXTRACT_FLAG_SEQUENTIAL is specified, data is read from the
 *      WIM sequentially, if possible.  If ::WIMLIB_ALL_IMAGES is specified,
 *      each image is considered separately with regards to the sequential
 *      order.  It is also possible for alternate data streams to break the
 *      sequential order (this only applies if ::WIMLIB_EXTRACT_FLAG_NTFS is
 *      specified).
 * @param additional_swms
 *      Array of pointers to the ::WIMStruct for each additional part in the
 *      split WIM.  Ignored if @a num_additional_swms is 0.  The pointers do not
 *      need to be in any particular order, but they must include all parts of
 *      the split WIM other than the first part, which must be provided in the
 *      @a wim parameter.
 * @param num_additional_swms
 *      Number of additional WIM parts provided in the @a additional_swms array.
 *      This number should be one less than the total number of parts in the
 *      split WIM.  Set to 0 if the WIM is a standalone WIM.
 *
 * @param progress_func
 *      If non-NULL, a function that will be called periodically with the
 *      progress of the current operation.
 *

/**
 * Overwrites the file that the WIM was originally read from, with changes made.
 * This only makes sense for ::WIMStruct's obtained from wimlib_open_wim()
 * rather than wimlib_create_new_wim().
 *
 * There are two ways that a WIM may be overwritten.  The first is to do a full
 * rebuild.  In this mode, the new WIM is written to a temporary file and then
 * renamed to the original file after it is has been completely written.  The
 * temporary file is made in the same directory as the original WIM file.  A
 * full rebuild may take a while, but can be used even if images have been
 * modified or deleted, will produce a WIM with no holes, and has little chance
 * of unintentional data loss because the temporary WIM is fsync()ed before
 * being renamed to the original WIM.
 *
 * The second way to overwrite a WIM is by appending to the end of it and
 * overwriting the header.  This can be much faster than a full rebuild, but it
 * only works if the only operations on the WIM have been to change the header
 * and/or XML data, or to add new images.  Writing a WIM in this mode begins
 * with writing any new file resources *after* everything in the old WIM, even
 * though this will leave a hole where the old lookup table, XML data, and
 * integrity were.  This is done so that the WIM remains valid even if the
 * operation is aborted mid-write.  The WIM header is only overwritten at the
 * very last moment, and up until that point the WIM will be seen as the old
 * version.
 *
 * By default, the overwrite mode is determine automatically based on the past
 * operations performed on the ::WIMStruct.  Use the flag
 * ::WIMLIB_WRITE_FLAG_REBUILD to explicitly request a full rebuild, and use the
 * ::WIMLIB_WRITE_FLAG_SOFT_DELETE to request the in-place overwrite even if
 * images have been deleted from the WIM.
 *
 * In the temporary-file overwrite mode, no changes are made to the WIM on
 * failure, and the temporary file is deleted if possible.  Abnormal termination
 * of the program will result in the temporary file being orphaned.  In the
 * direct append mode, the WIM is truncated to the original length on failure;
 * and while abnormal termination of the program will result in extra data
 * appended to the original WIM, it should still be a valid WIM.
 *
 * If this function completes successfully, no functions should be called on @a
 * wim other than wimlib_free().  You must use wimlib_open_wim() to read the WIM
 * file anew.
 *
 * @param wim
 *      Pointer to the ::WIMStruct for the WIM file to write.  There may have
