Parameter

• mixed $filelist - an array of filenames and directory names, or a single string with names separated by a single blank space. For each directory added in the archive, the files and sub-directories are also added.

Return value

boolean - Returns TRUE on success, FALSE on failure.

Throws

$tar_object->add($v_list);
