1 This directory contains examples of the use of zlib and other relevant
2 programs and documentation.
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
10 usage examples of zlib
11 - used in zlib build Makefile for testing
14 compress just enough input to nearly fill a requested output size
15 - zlib isn't designed to do this, but fitblk does it anyway
18 uncompress a gzip file
19 - illustrates the use of inflateBack() for high speed file-to-file
20 decompression using call-back functions
21 - is approximately twice as fast as gzip -d
22 - also provides Unix uncompress functionality, again twice as fast
26 - illustrates the use of the Z_BLOCK flush parameter for inflate()
27 - illustrates the use of deflatePrime() to start at any bit
30 join gzip files without recalculating the crc or recompressing
31 - illustrates the use of the Z_BLOCK flush parameter for inflate()
32 - illustrates the use of crc32_combine()
36 efficiently and robustly maintain a message log file in gzip format
37 - illustrates use of raw deflate, Z_PARTIAL_FLUSH, deflatePrime(),
38 and deflateSetDictionary()
39 - illustrates use of a gzip header extra field
42 minimal implementation of gzip-like functionality using zlib
43 - used in zlib build Makefile for testing
44 - is not meant for and should not be used as a gzip replacement
47 painfully comprehensive description of zpipe.c (see below)
48 - describes in excruciating detail the use of deflate() and inflate()
51 reads and writes zlib streams from stdin to stdout
52 - illustrates the proper use of deflate() and inflate()
53 - deeply commented in zlib_how.html (see above)
56 index a zlib or gzip stream and randomly access it
57 - illustrates the use of Z_BLOCK, inflatePrime(), and
58 inflateSetDictionary() to provide random access
