1 | This directory contains examples of the use of zlib and other relevant |
2 | programs and documentation. | |
3 | ||
4 | enough.c | |
5 | calculation and justification of ENOUGH parameter in inftrees.h | |
6 | - calculates the maximum table space used in inflate tree | |
7 | construction over all possible Huffman codes | |
8 | ||
9 | fitblk.c | |
10 | compress just enough input to nearly fill a requested output size | |
11 | - zlib isn't designed to do this, but fitblk does it anyway | |
12 | ||
13 | gun.c | |
14 | uncompress a gzip file | |
15 | - illustrates the use of inflateBack() for high speed file-to-file | |
16 | decompression using call-back functions | |
17 | - is approximately twice as fast as gzip -d | |
18 | - also provides Unix uncompress functionality, again twice as fast | |
19 | ||
20 | gzappend.c | |
21 | append to a gzip file | |
22 | - illustrates the use of the Z_BLOCK flush parameter for inflate() | |
23 | - illustrates the use of deflatePrime() to start at any bit | |
24 | ||
25 | gzjoin.c | |
26 | join gzip files without recalculating the crc or recompressing | |
27 | - illustrates the use of the Z_BLOCK flush parameter for inflate() | |
28 | - illustrates the use of crc32_combine() | |
29 | ||
30 | gzlog.c | |
31 | gzlog.h | |
32 | efficiently and robustly maintain a message log file in gzip format | |
33 | - illustrates use of raw deflate, Z_PARTIAL_FLUSH, deflatePrime(), | |
34 | and deflateSetDictionary() | |
35 | - illustrates use of a gzip header extra field | |
36 | ||
37 | zlib_how.html | |
38 | painfully comprehensive description of zpipe.c (see below) | |
39 | - describes in excruciating detail the use of deflate() and inflate() | |
40 | ||
41 | zpipe.c | |
42 | reads and writes zlib streams from stdin to stdout | |
43 | - illustrates the proper use of deflate() and inflate() | |
44 | - deeply commented in zlib_how.html (see above) | |
45 | ||
46 | zran.c | |
47 | index a zlib or gzip stream and randomly access it | |
48 | - illustrates the use of Z_BLOCK, inflatePrime(), and | |
49 | inflateSetDictionary() to provide random access |
