archivePath	Path to the archive i.e. the directory where the anchor file is located.
archiveName	Name of the archive. It is used to generate sub pathes e.g. 'archiveName.otf2'.
fileMode	Determines if in reading or writing mode. Available values are OTF2_FILEMODE_WRITE or OTF2_FILEMODE_READ.
chunkSizeEvents	Requested size of OTF2's internal event chunks in writing mode. Available values are from 256kB to 16MB. The event chunk size affects performance as well as total memory usage. A value satisfying both is about 1MB. If you are not sure which chunk size is the best to use, use OTF2_CHUNK_SIZE_EVENTS_DEFAULT. In reading mode this value is ignored because the correct chunk size is extracted from the anchor file.
chunkSizeDefs	Requested size of OTF2's internal definition chunks in writing mode. Available values are from 256kB to 16MB. The definition chunk size affects performance as well as total memory usage. In addition, the definition chunk size must be big enough to carry the largest possible definition record. Therefore, the definition chunk size must be at least 10 times the number of locations. A value satisfying these requirements is about 4MB. If you are not sure which chunk size is the best to use, use OTF2_CHUNK_SIZE_DEFINITIONS_DEFAULT. In reading mode this value is ignored because the correct chunk size is extracted from the anchor file.
fileSubstrate	Determines which file substrate should be used in writing mode. Available values are OTF2_SUBSTRATE_POSIX to use the standard Posix interface, OTF2_SUBSTRATE_SION to use an installed SION library to store multiple logical files into fewer or one physical file, and OTF2_SUBSTRATE_NONE to supress file writing at all. In reading mode this value is ignored because the correct file substrated is extracted from the anchor file.
compression	Determines if compression is used to reduce the size of data in files. Available values are OTF2_COMPRESSION_ZLIB to use an installed zlib and OTF2_COMPRESSION_NONE to disable compression. In reading mode this value is ignored because the correct file compression is extracted from the anchor file.
