$rar_file = rar_open('example.rar') or die("Failed to open Rar archive");

$entry = rar_entry_get($rar_file, 'Dir/file.txt') or die("Failed to find such entry");

$entry->extract('/dir/to'); // create /dir/to/Dir/file.txt
$entry->extract(false, '/dir/to/new_name.txt'); // create /dir/to/new_name.txt

?>

}
