rar_entry_get
There's a small problem in Example #2 by Erik Jenssen listed above.
This line:
$entry = rar_entry_get($rar_file, $file);
Should actually read:
$entry = rar_entry_get($rar_file, $file->name);
As it's an object, and the second parameter of rar_entry_get needs to be a string (of the file path).
Rar::extract

Example #1 Rar::extract() example

$entry = rar_entry_get($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

Example #2 How to extract all files in archive:
<?php
/* example by Erik Jenssen aka erix */
$filename = "foobar.rar";
$filepath = "/home/foo/bar/";
$rar_file = rar_open($filepath.$filename);
$list = rar_list($rar_file);
foreach($list as $file) {
$entry = rar_entry_get($rar_file, $file);
$entry->extract("."); // extract to the current dir
}
rar_close($rar_file);
?>

As remarked by Lubomir Stefanov, example 2026 has an error. Another way to correct this error would be to replace the foreach loop as follows:
<?php
foreach($list as $entry) {
$entry->extract("."); // extract to the current dir
}
?>

One edit for function by Erik Jenssen
Line $entry = rar_entry_get($rar_file, $file);
must be $entry = rar_entry_get($rar_file, $file->name);
because $file is a object
