RarArchive::getEntry -- rar_entry_get — Get entry object from the RAR archive
Object oriented style (method):
public RarArchive::getEntry ( string $entryname ) : RarEntry|false
Procedural style:
rar_entry_get ( RarArchive $rarfile , string $entryname ) : RarEntry|false
Get entry object (file or directory) from the RAR archive.
Note:
You can also get entry objects using RarArchive::getEntries().
Note that a RAR archive can have multiple entries with the same name; this method will retrieve only the first.
rarfile
A RarArchive object, opened with rar_open().
entryname
Path to the entry within the RAR archive.
Note:
The path must be the same returned by RarEntry::getName().
 Returns the matching RarEntry object or false on failure. 
Example #1 Object oriented style
<?php
$rar_arch = RarArchive::open('solid.rar');
if ($rar_arch === FALSE)
    die("Could not open RAR archive.");
$rar_entry = $rar_arch->getEntry('tese.txt');
if ($rar_entry === FALSE)
    die("Could not get such entry");
echo get_class($rar_entry)."\n";
echo $rar_entry;
$rar_arch->close();
?> The above example will output something similar to:
RarEntry RarEntry for file "tese.txt" (23b93a7a)
Example #2 Procedural style
<?php
$rar_arch = rar_open('solid.rar');
if ($rar_arch === FALSE)

$rar_entry = rar_entry_get($rar_arch, 'tese.txt');
if ($rar_entry === FALSE)
    die("Could not get such entry");
echo get_class($rar_entry)."\n";
echo $rar_entry;
rar_close($rar_arch);
