This version of the library supports only one compression method - (deflation) but other algorithms will be added later and will have the same - stream interface. - <p> - - Compression can be done in a single step if the buffers are large - enough (for example if an input file is mmap'ed), or can be done by - repeated calls of the compression function. In the latter case, the - application must provide more input and/or consume the output - (providing more output space) before each call. - <p> - - The library also supports reading and writing files in gzip (.gz) format - with an interface similar to that of stdio. - <p> - - The library does not install any signal handler. The decoder checks - the consistency of the compressed data, so the library should never - crash even in case of corrupted input. - <p> - -<hr> -<a name="Utility functions"><h2> Utility functions </h2> - The following utility functions are implemented on top of the - <a href="#Basic functions">basic stream-oriented functions</a>. - To simplify the interface, some - default options are assumed (compression level and memory usage, - standard memory allocation functions).
