1 This directory contains examples of the use of zlib. 2 3 fitblk.c 4 compress just enough input to nearly fill a requested output size 5 - zlib isn't designed to do this, but fitblk does it anyway 6 7 gun.c 8 uncompress a gzip file 9 - illustrates the use of inflateBack() for high speed file-to-file 10 decompression using call-back functions 11 - is approximately twice as fast as gzip -d 12 - also provides Unix uncompress functionality, again twice as fast 13 14 gzappend.c 15 append to a gzip file 16 - illustrates the use of the Z_BLOCK flush parameter for inflate() 17 - illustrates the use of deflatePrime() to start at any bit 18 19 gzjoin.c 20 join gzip files without recalculating the crc or recompressing 21 - illustrates the use of the Z_BLOCK flush parameter for inflate() 22 - illustrates the use of crc32_combine() 23 24 gzlog.c 25 gzlog.h 26 efficiently maintain a message log file in gzip format 27 - illustrates use of raw deflate and Z_SYNC_FLUSH 28 - illustrates use of gzip header extra field 29 30 zlib_how.html 31 painfully comprehensive description of zpipe.c (see below) 32 - describes in excruciating detail the use of deflate() and inflate() 33 34 zpipe.c 35 reads and writes zlib streams from stdin to stdout 36 - illustrates the proper use of deflate() and inflate() 37 - deeply commented in zlib_how.html (see above) 38 39 zran.c 40 index a zlib or gzip stream and randomly access it 41 - illustrates the use of Z_BLOCK, inflatePrime(), and 42 inflateSetDictionary() to provide random access 43
