+.Os
+.Sh NAME
+.Nm changes in libarchive interface
+.\"
+.Sh CHANGES IN LIBARCHIVE 3
+This page describes user-visible changes in libarchive3, and lists
+public functions and other symbols changed, deprecated or removed
+in libarchive3, along with their replacements if any.
+.Pp
+.\"
+.Ss Multiple Filters
+.\"
+Libarchive2 permitted a single (input or output) filter active
+on an archive.
+Libarchive3 extends this into a variable-length stack.
+Where
+.Fn archive_write_set_compression_XXX
+would replace any existing filter,
+.Fn archive_write_add_filter_XXX
+extends the write pipeline with another filter.
+.\"
+.Ss Character Set Handling
+.\"
+Libarchive2 assumed that the local platform uses
+.Tn Unicode
+as the native
+.Tn wchar_t
+encoding, which is true on
+.Tn Windows ,
+modern
+.Tn Linux ,
+and a few other systems, but is certainly not universal.
+As a result, pax format archives were written incorrectly on some
+systems, since pax format requires
+.Tn UTF-8
+and libarchive 2 incorrectly
+assumed that
+.Tn wchar_t
+strings can be easily converted to
+.Tn UTF-8 .
+.Pp
+Libarchive3 uses the standard iconv library to convert between character
+sets and is introducing the notion of a
+.Dq default character set for the archive .
+To support this,
+.Tn archive_entry
+objects can now be bound to a particular archive when they are created.
+The automatic character set conversions performed by
+.Tn archive_entry
+objects when reading and writing filenames, usernames, and other strings
+will now use an appropriate default character set:
+.Pp
+If the
+.Tn archive_entry
+object is bound to an archive, it will use the
+default character set for that archive.
+.Pp
+The platform default character encoding (as returned by
+.Fn nl_langinfo CHARSET )
+will be used if nothing else is specified.
+.Pp
+Libarchive3 also introduces charset options to many of the archive
+readers and writers to control the character set that will be used for
+filenames written in those archives.
+When possible, this will be set automatically based on information in
+the archive itself.
+Combining this with the notion of a default character set for the
+archive should allow you to configure libarchive to read archives from
+other platforms and have the filenames and other information
+transparently converted to the character encoding suitable for your
+application.
+.\"
+.Ss Prototype Changes
+.\"
+These changes break binary compatibility; libarchive3 has a new shared
+library version to reflect these changes.
+The library now uses portable wide types such as
+.Tn int64_t
+instead of less-portable types such as
+.Tn off_t ,
+.Tn gid_t ,
+.Tn uid_t ,
+and
+.Tn ino_t .
+.Pp
+There are a few cases where these changes will affect your source code:
+.Bl -bullet -width ind
+.It
+In some cases, libarchive's wider types will introduce the possibility
+of truncation: for example, on a system with a 16-bit
+.Tn uid_t , you risk having uid
+.Li 65536
+be truncated to uid
+.Li 0 ,
+which can cause serious security problems.
+.It
+Typedef function pointer types will be incompatible.
+For example, if you define custom skip callbacks, you may have to use
+code similar to the following if you want to support building against
+libarchive2 and libarchive3:
+.Bd -literal
+#if ARCHIVE_VERSION_NUMBER < 3000000
+typedef off_t myoff_t;
+#else
+typedef int64_t myoff_t;
+#endif
+
+myoff_t
+my_skip_function(struct archive *a, void *v, myoff_t o)
+{
+ ... implementation ...
+}
