The data format used by the zlib library is described by RFCs (Request for
29
Comments) 1950 to 1952 in the files ftp://ds.internic.net/rfc/rfc1950.txt

(zlib format), rfc1951.txt (deflate format) and rfc1952.txt (gzip format).

45
The 'zlib' compression library provides in-memory compression and
46
decompression functions, including integrity checks of the uncompressed
47
data. This version of the library supports only one compression method
48
(deflation) but other algorithms will be added later and will have the same
51
Compression can be done in a single step if the buffers are large
52
enough (for example if an input file is mmap'ed), or can be done by
53
repeated calls of the compression function. In the latter case, the
54
application must provide more input and/or consume the output
55
(providing more output space) before each call.
57
The library also supports reading and writing files in gzip (.gz) format
58
with an interface similar to that of stdio.
60
The library does not install any signal handler. The decoder checks
61
the consistency of the compressed data, so the library should never
62
crash even in case of corrupted input.

The application must update next_in and avail_in when avail_in has
95
dropped to zero. It must update next_out and avail_out when avail_out
96
has dropped to zero. The application must initialize zalloc, zfree and
97
opaque before calling the init function. All other fields are set by the
98
compression library and must not be updated by the application.
100
The opaque value provided by the application will be passed as the first
101
parameter for calls of zalloc and zfree. This can be useful for custom
102
memory management. The compression library attaches no meaning to the
105
zalloc must return Z_NULL if there is not enough memory for the object.
106
On 16-bit systems, the functions zalloc and zfree must be able to allocate
107
exactly 65536 bytes, but will not be required to allocate more than this
108
if the symbol MAXSEG_64K is defined (see zconf.h). WARNING: On MSDOS,
109
pointers returned by zalloc for objects of exactly 65536 bytes *must*
110
have their offset normalized to zero. The default allocation function
111
provided by this library ensures this (see zutil.c). To reduce memory
112
requirements and avoid any allocation of 64K objects, at the expense of
113
compression ratio, compile the library with -DMAX_WBITS=14 (see zconf.h).
115
The fields total_in and total_out can be used for statistics or
116
progress reports. After compression, total_in holds the total size of
117
the uncompressed data and may be saved for use in the decompressor

Initializes the internal stream state for compression. The fields

zalloc, zfree and opaque must be initialized before by the caller.
182
If zalloc and zfree are set to Z_NULL, deflateInit updates them to

use default allocation functions.
185
The compression level must be Z_DEFAULT_COMPRESSION, or between 0 and 9:
186
1 gives best speed, 9 gives best compression, 0 gives no compression at
187
all (the input data is simply copied a block at a time).
188
Z_DEFAULT_COMPRESSION requests a default compromise between speed and
189
compression (currently equivalent to level 6).
191
deflateInit returns Z_OK if success, Z_MEM_ERROR if there was not
192
enough memory, Z_STREAM_ERROR if level is not a valid compression level,

Z_VERSION_ERROR if the zlib library version (zlib_version) is incompatible

extern int EXPORT deflate OF((z_streamp strm, int flush));
202
deflate compresses as much data as possible, and stops when the input
203
buffer becomes empty or the output buffer becomes full. It may introduce some
204
output latency (reading input without producing any output) except when
207
The detailed semantics are as follows. deflate performs one or both of the
210
- Compress more input starting at next_in and update next_in and avail_in
211
accordingly. If not all input can be processed (because there is not
212
enough room in the output buffer), next_in and avail_in are updated and
213
processing will resume at this point for the next call of deflate().
215
- Provide more output starting at next_out and update next_out and avail_out
216
accordingly. This action is forced if the parameter flush is non zero.
217
Forcing flush frequently degrades the compression ratio, so this parameter
218
should be set only when necessary (in interactive applications).
219
Some output may be provided even if flush is not set.
221
Before the call of deflate(), the application should ensure that at least
222
one of the actions is possible, by providing more input and/or consuming
223
more output, and updating avail_in or avail_out accordingly; avail_out
224
should never be zero before the call. The application can consume the
225
compressed output when it wants, for example when the output buffer is full
226
(avail_out == 0), or after each call of deflate(). If deflate returns Z_OK
227
and with zero avail_out, it must be called again after making room in the
228
output buffer because there might be more output pending.
230
If the parameter flush is set to Z_SYNC_FLUSH, all pending output is
231
flushed to the output buffer and the output is aligned on a byte boundary, so
232
that the decompressor can get all input data available so far. (In particular
233
avail_in is zero after the call if enough output space has been provided
234
before the call.) Flushing may degrade compression for some compression
235
algorithms and so it should be used only when necessary.
237
If flush is set to Z_FULL_FLUSH, all output is flushed as with
238
Z_SYNC_FLUSH, and the compression state is reset so that decompression can
239
restart from this point if previous compressed data has been damaged or if
240
random access is desired. Using Z_FULL_FLUSH too often can seriously degrade
243
If deflate returns with avail_out == 0, this function must be called again
244
with the same value of the flush parameter and more output space (updated
245
avail_out), until the flush is complete (deflate returns with non-zero
248
If the parameter flush is set to Z_FINISH, pending input is processed,
249
pending output is flushed and deflate returns with Z_STREAM_END if there
250
was enough output space; if deflate returns with Z_OK, this function must be
251
called again with Z_FINISH and more output space (updated avail_out) but no
252
more input data, until it returns with Z_STREAM_END or an error. After
253
deflate has returned Z_STREAM_END, the only possible operations on the
254
stream are deflateReset or deflateEnd.
256
Z_FINISH can be used immediately after deflateInit if all the compression
257
is to be done in a single step. In this case, avail_out must be at least
258
0.1% larger than avail_in plus 12 bytes. If deflate does not return
259
Z_STREAM_END, then it must be called again as described above.
261
deflate() sets strm->adler to the adler32 checksum of all input read
262
so far (that is, total_in bytes).
264
deflate() may update data_type if it can make a good guess about
265
the input data type (Z_ASCII or Z_BINARY). In doubt, the data is considered
266
binary. This field is only for information purposes and does not affect
267
the compression algorithm in any manner.
269
deflate() returns Z_OK if some progress has been made (more input
270
processed or more output produced), Z_STREAM_END if all input has been
271
consumed and all output has been produced (only when flush is set to
272
Z_FINISH), Z_STREAM_ERROR if the stream state was inconsistent (for example
273
if next_in or next_out was NULL), Z_BUF_ERROR if no progress is possible.
277
extern int EXPORT deflateEnd OF((z_streamp strm));
279
All dynamically allocated data structures for this stream are freed.
280
This function discards any unprocessed input and does not flush any
283
deflateEnd returns Z_OK if success, Z_STREAM_ERROR if the
284
stream state was inconsistent, Z_DATA_ERROR if the stream was freed
285
prematurely (some input or output was discarded). In the error case,
286
msg may be set but then points to a static string (which must not be
292
extern int EXPORT inflateInit OF((z_streamp strm));
294
Initializes the internal stream state for decompression. The fields
295
next_in, avail_in, zalloc, zfree and opaque must be initialized before by
296
the caller. If next_in is not Z_NULL and avail_in is large enough (the exact
297
value depends on the compression method), inflateInit determines the
298
compression method from the zlib header and allocates all data structures
299
accordingly; otherwise the allocation will be deferred to the first call of
300
inflate. If zalloc and zfree are set to Z_NULL, inflateInit updates them to
301
use default allocation functions.
303
inflateInit returns Z_OK if success, Z_MEM_ERROR if there was not enough
304
memory, Z_VERSION_ERROR if the zlib library version is incompatible with the
305
version assumed by the caller. msg is set to null if there is no error
306
message. inflateInit does not perform any decompression apart from reading
307
the zlib header if present: this will be done by inflate(). (So next_in and
308
avail_in may be modified, but next_out and avail_out are unchanged.)
312
extern int EXPORT inflate OF((z_streamp strm, int flush));
314
inflate decompresses as much data as possible, and stops when the input
315
buffer becomes empty or the output buffer becomes full. It may some
316
introduce some output latency (reading input without producing any output)
317
except when forced to flush.
319
The detailed semantics are as follows. inflate performs one or both of the
322
- Decompress more input starting at next_in and update next_in and avail_in
323
accordingly. If not all input can be processed (because there is not
324
enough room in the output buffer), next_in is updated and processing
325
will resume at this point for the next call of inflate().
327
- Provide more output starting at next_out and update next_out and avail_out
328
accordingly. inflate() provides as much output as possible, until there
329
is no more input data or no more space in the output buffer (see below
330
about the flush parameter).
332
Before the call of inflate(), the application should ensure that at least
333
one of the actions is possible, by providing more input and/or consuming
334
more output, and updating the next_* and avail_* values accordingly.
335
The application can consume the uncompressed output when it wants, for
336
example when the output buffer is full (avail_out == 0), or after each
337
call of inflate(). If inflate returns Z_OK and with zero avail_out, it
338
must be called again after making room in the output buffer because there
339
might be more output pending.
341
If the parameter flush is set to Z_SYNC_FLUSH, inflate flushes as much
342
output as possible to the output buffer. The flushing behavior of inflate is
343
not specified for values of the flush parameter other than Z_SYNC_FLUSH
344
and Z_FINISH, but the current implementation actually flushes as much output
347
inflate() should normally be called until it returns Z_STREAM_END or an
348
error. However if all decompression is to be performed in a single step
349
(a single call of inflate), the parameter flush should be set to
350
Z_FINISH. In this case all pending input is processed and all pending
351
output is flushed; avail_out must be large enough to hold all the
352
uncompressed data. (The size of the uncompressed data may have been saved
353
by the compressor for this purpose.) The next operation on this stream must
354
be inflateEnd to deallocate the decompression state. The use of Z_FINISH
355
is never required, but can be used to inform inflate that a faster routine
356
may be used for the single inflate() call.
358
If a preset dictionary is needed at this point (see inflateSetDictionary
359
below), inflate sets strm-adler to the adler32 checksum of the
360
dictionary chosen by the compressor and returns Z_NEED_DICT; otherwise
361
it sets strm->adler to the adler32 checksum of all output produced
362
so far (that is, total_out bytes) and returns Z_OK, Z_STREAM_END or
363
an error code as described below. At the end of the stream, inflate()
364
checks that its computed adler32 checksum is equal to that saved by the
365
compressor and returns Z_STREAM_END only if the checksum is correct.
367
inflate() returns Z_OK if some progress has been made (more input processed
368
or more output produced), Z_STREAM_END if the end of the compressed data has
369
been reached and all uncompressed output has been produced, Z_NEED_DICT if a
370
preset dictionary is needed at this point, Z_DATA_ERROR if the input data was
371
corrupted (input stream not conforming to the zlib format or incorrect
372
adler32 checksum), Z_STREAM_ERROR if the stream structure was inconsistent
373
(for example if next_in or next_out was NULL), Z_MEM_ERROR if there was not
374
enough memory, Z_BUF_ERROR if no progress is possible or if there was not
375
enough room in the output buffer when Z_FINISH is used. In the Z_DATA_ERROR
376
case, the application may then call inflateSync to look for a good
381
extern int EXPORT inflateEnd OF((z_streamp strm));
383
All dynamically allocated data structures for this stream are freed.
384
This function discards any unprocessed input and does not flush any
387
inflateEnd returns Z_OK if success, Z_STREAM_ERROR if the stream state
388
was inconsistent. In the error case, msg may be set but then points to a
389
static string (which must not be deallocated).
392
/* Advanced functions */
395
The following functions are needed only in some special applications.
399
extern int EXPORT deflateInit2 OF((z_streamp strm,
406
This is another version of deflateInit with more compression options. The
407
fields next_in, zalloc, zfree and opaque must be initialized before by
410
The method parameter is the compression method. It must be Z_DEFLATED in
411
this version of the library.
413
The windowBits parameter is the base two logarithm of the window size
414
(the size of the history buffer). It should be in the range 8..15 for this
415
version of the library. Larger values of this parameter result in better
416
compression at the expense of memory usage. The default value is 15 if
417
deflateInit is used instead.
419
The memLevel parameter specifies how much memory should be allocated
420
for the internal compression state. memLevel=1 uses minimum memory but
421
is slow and reduces compression ratio; memLevel=9 uses maximum memory
422
for optimal speed. The default value is 8. See zconf.h for total memory
423
usage as a function of windowBits and memLevel.
425
The strategy parameter is used to tune the compression algorithm. Use the
426
value Z_DEFAULT_STRATEGY for normal data, Z_FILTERED for data produced by a
427
filter (or predictor), or Z_HUFFMAN_ONLY to force Huffman encoding only (no
428
string match). Filtered data consists mostly of small values with a
429
somewhat random distribution. In this case, the compression algorithm is
430
tuned to compress them better. The effect of Z_FILTERED is to force more
431
Huffman coding and less string matching; it is somewhat intermediate
432
between Z_DEFAULT and Z_HUFFMAN_ONLY. The strategy parameter only affects
433
the compression ratio but not the correctness of the compressed output even
434
if it is not set appropriately.
436
deflateInit2 returns Z_OK if success, Z_MEM_ERROR if there was not enough
437
memory, Z_STREAM_ERROR if a parameter is invalid (such as an invalid
438
method). msg is set to null if there is no error message. deflateInit2 does
439
not perform any compression: this will be done by deflate().
442
extern int EXPORT deflateSetDictionary OF((z_streamp strm,
443
const Bytef *dictionary,
446
Initializes the compression dictionary from the given byte sequence
447
without producing any compressed output. This function must be called
448
immediately after deflateInit or deflateInit2, before any call of
449
deflate. The compressor and decompressor must use exactly the same
450
dictionary (see inflateSetDictionary).
452
The dictionary should consist of strings (byte sequences) that are likely
453
to be encountered later in the data to be compressed, with the most commonly
454
used strings preferably put towards the end of the dictionary. Using a
455
dictionary is most useful when the data to be compressed is short and can be
456
predicted with good accuracy; the data can then be compressed better than
457
with the default empty dictionary.
459
Depending on the size of the compression data structures selected by
460
deflateInit or deflateInit2, a part of the dictionary may in effect be
461
discarded, for example if the dictionary is larger than the window size in
462
deflate or deflate2. Thus the strings most likely to be useful should be
463
put at the end of the dictionary, not at the front.
465
Upon return of this function, strm->adler is set to the Adler32 value
466
of the dictionary; the decompressor may later use this value to determine
467
which dictionary has been used by the compressor. (The Adler32 value
468
applies to the whole dictionary even if only a subset of the dictionary is
469
actually used by the compressor.)
471
deflateSetDictionary returns Z_OK if success, or Z_STREAM_ERROR if a
472
parameter is invalid (such as NULL dictionary) or the stream state is
473
inconsistent (for example if deflate has already been called for this stream
474
or if the compression method is bsort). deflateSetDictionary does not
475
perform any compression: this will be done by deflate().
478
extern int EXPORT deflateCopy OF((z_streamp dest,
481
Sets the destination stream as a complete copy of the source stream.
483
This function can be useful when several compression strategies will be
484
tried, for example when there are several ways of pre-processing the input
485
data with a filter. The streams that will be discarded should then be freed
486
by calling deflateEnd. Note that deflateCopy duplicates the internal
487
compression state which can be quite large, so this strategy is slow and
488
can consume lots of memory.
490
deflateCopy returns Z_OK if success, Z_MEM_ERROR if there was not
491
enough memory, Z_STREAM_ERROR if the source stream state was inconsistent
492
(such as zalloc being NULL). msg is left unchanged in both source and
496
extern int EXPORT deflateReset OF((z_streamp strm));
498
This function is equivalent to deflateEnd followed by deflateInit,
499
but does not free and reallocate all the internal compression state.
500
The stream will keep the same compression level and any other attributes
501
that may have been set by deflateInit2.
503
deflateReset returns Z_OK if success, or Z_STREAM_ERROR if the source
504
stream state was inconsistent (such as zalloc or state being NULL).
507
extern int EXPORT deflateParams OF((z_streamp strm, int level, int strategy));
509
Dynamically update the compression level and compression strategy. The
510
interpretation of level and strategy is as in deflateInit2. This can be
511
used to switch between compression and straight copy of the input data, or
512
to switch to a different kind of input data requiring a different
513
strategy. If the compression level is changed, the input available so far
514
is compressed with the old level (and may be flushed); the new level will
515
take effect only at the next call of deflate().
517
Before the call of deflateParams, the stream state must be set as for
518
a call of deflate(), since the currently available input may have to
519
be compressed and flushed. In particular, strm->avail_out must be non-zero.
521
deflateParams returns Z_OK if success, Z_STREAM_ERROR if the source
522
stream state was inconsistent or if a parameter was invalid, Z_BUF_ERROR
523
if strm->avail_out was zero.
527
extern int EXPORT inflateInit2 OF((z_streamp strm,
530
This is another version of inflateInit with an extra parameter. The
531
fields next_in, avail_in, zalloc, zfree and opaque must be initialized
532
before by the caller.
534
The windowBits parameter is the base two logarithm of the maximum window
535
size (the size of the history buffer). It should be in the range 8..15 for
536
this version of the library. The default value is 15 if inflateInit is used
537
instead. If a compressed stream with a larger window size is given as
538
input, inflate() will return with the error code Z_DATA_ERROR instead of
539
trying to allocate a larger window.
541
inflateInit2 returns Z_OK if success, Z_MEM_ERROR if there was not enough
542
memory, Z_STREAM_ERROR if a parameter is invalid (such as a negative
543
memLevel). msg is set to null if there is no error message. inflateInit2
544
does not perform any decompression apart from reading the zlib header if
545
present: this will be done by inflate(). (So next_in and avail_in may be
546
modified, but next_out and avail_out are unchanged.)
549
extern int EXPORT inflateSetDictionary OF((z_streamp strm,
550
const Bytef *dictionary,
553
Initializes the decompression dictionary from the given uncompressed byte
554
sequence. This function must be called immediately after a call of inflate
555
if this call returned Z_NEED_DICT. The dictionary chosen by the compressor
556
can be determined from the Adler32 value returned by this call of
557
inflate. The compressor and decompressor must use exactly the same
558
dictionary (see deflateSetDictionary).
560
inflateSetDictionary returns Z_OK if success, Z_STREAM_ERROR if a
561
parameter is invalid (such as NULL dictionary) or the stream state is
562
inconsistent, Z_DATA_ERROR if the given dictionary doesn't match the
563
expected one (incorrect Adler32 value). inflateSetDictionary does not
564
perform any decompression: this will be done by subsequent calls of
568
extern int EXPORT inflateSync OF((z_streamp strm));
570
Skips invalid compressed data until a full flush point (see above the
571
description of deflate with Z_FULL_FLUSH) can be found, or until all
572
available input is skipped. No output is provided.
574
inflateSync returns Z_OK if a full flush point has been found, Z_BUF_ERROR
575
if no more input was provided, Z_DATA_ERROR if no flush point has been found,
576
or Z_STREAM_ERROR if the stream structure was inconsistent. In the success
577
case, the application may save the current current value of total_in which
578
indicates where valid compressed data was found. In the error case, the
579
application may repeatedly call inflateSync, providing more input each time,
580
until success or end of the input data.
583
extern int EXPORT inflateReset OF((z_streamp strm));
585
This function is equivalent to inflateEnd followed by inflateInit,
586
but does not free and reallocate all the internal decompression state.
587
The stream will keep attributes that may have been set by inflateInit2.
589
inflateReset returns Z_OK if success, or Z_STREAM_ERROR if the source
590
stream state was inconsistent (such as zalloc or state being NULL).
594
/* utility functions */
597
The following utility functions are implemented on top of the
598
basic stream-oriented functions. To simplify the interface, some
599
default options are assumed (compression level and memory usage,
600
standard memory allocation functions). The source code of these
601
utility functions can easily be modified if you need special options.
604
extern int EXPORT compress OF((Bytef *dest, uLongf *destLen,
605
const Bytef *source, uLong sourceLen));
607
Compresses the source buffer into the destination buffer. sourceLen is
608
the byte length of the source buffer. Upon entry, destLen is the total
609
size of the destination buffer, which must be at least 0.1% larger than
610
sourceLen plus 12 bytes. Upon exit, destLen is the actual size of the
612
This function can be used to compress a whole file at once if the
613
input file is mmap'ed.
614
compress returns Z_OK if success, Z_MEM_ERROR if there was not
615
enough memory, Z_BUF_ERROR if there was not enough room in the output
619
extern int EXPORT compress2 OF((Bytef *dest, uLongf *destLen,
620
const Bytef *source, uLong sourceLen,
623
Compresses the source buffer into the destination buffer. The level
624
parameter has the same meaning as in deflateInit. sourceLen is the byte
625
length of the source buffer. Upon entry, destLen is the total size of the
626
destination buffer, which must be at least 0.1% larger than sourceLen plus
627
12 bytes. Upon exit, destLen is the actual size of the compressed buffer.
629
compress2 returns Z_OK if success, Z_MEM_ERROR if there was not enough
630
memory, Z_BUF_ERROR if there was not enough room in the output buffer,
631
Z_STREAM_ERROR if the level parameter is invalid.
634
extern int EXPORT uncompress OF((Bytef *dest, uLongf *destLen,
635
const Bytef *source, uLong sourceLen));
637
Decompresses the source buffer into the destination buffer. sourceLen is
638
the byte length of the source buffer. Upon entry, destLen is the total
639
size of the destination buffer, which must be large enough to hold the
640
entire uncompressed data. (The size of the uncompressed data must have
641
been saved previously by the compressor and transmitted to the decompressor
642
by some mechanism outside the scope of this compression library.)
643
Upon exit, destLen is the actual size of the compressed buffer.
644
This function can be used to decompress a whole file at once if the
645
input file is mmap'ed.
647
uncompress returns Z_OK if success, Z_MEM_ERROR if there was not
648
enough memory, Z_BUF_ERROR if there was not enough room in the output
649
buffer, or Z_DATA_ERROR if the input data was corrupted.
653
typedef voidp gzFile;
655
extern gzFile EXPORT gzopen OF((const char *path, const char *mode));
657
Opens a gzip (.gz) file for reading or writing. The mode parameter
658
is as in fopen ("rb" or "wb") but can also include a compression level
659
("wb9") or a strategy: 'f' for filtered data as in "wb6f", 'h' for
660
Huffman only compression as in "wb1h". (See the description
661
of deflateInit2 for more information about the strategy parameter.)
663
gzopen can be used to read a file which is not in gzip format; in this
664
case gzread will directly read from the file without decompression.
666
gzopen returns NULL if the file could not be opened or if there was
667
insufficient memory to allocate the (de)compression state; errno
668
can be checked to distinguish the two cases (if errno is zero, the
669
zlib error is Z_MEM_ERROR). */
671
extern gzFile EXPORT gzdopen OF((int fd, const char *mode));
673
gzdopen() associates a gzFile with the file descriptor fd. File
674
descriptors are obtained from calls like open, dup, creat, pipe or
675
fileno (in the file has been previously opened with fopen).
676
The mode parameter is as in gzopen.
677
The next call of gzclose on the returned gzFile will also close the
678
file descriptor fd, just like fclose(fdopen(fd), mode) closes the file
679
descriptor fd. If you want to keep fd open, use gzdopen(dup(fd), mode).
680
gzdopen returns NULL if there was insufficient memory to allocate
681
the (de)compression state.
684
extern int EXPORT gzsetparams OF((gzFile file, int level, int strategy));
686
Dynamically update the compression level or strategy. See the description
687
of deflateInit2 for the meaning of these parameters.
688
gzsetparams returns Z_OK if success, or Z_STREAM_ERROR if the file was not
692
extern int EXPORT gzread OF((gzFile file, voidp buf, unsigned len));
694
Reads the given number of uncompressed bytes from the compressed file.
695
If the input file was not in gzip format, gzread copies the given number
696
of bytes into the buffer.
697
gzread returns the number of uncompressed bytes actually read (0 for
698
end of file, -1 for error). */
700
extern int EXPORT gzwrite OF((gzFile file, const voidp buf, unsigned len));
702
Writes the given number of uncompressed bytes into the compressed file.
703
gzwrite returns the number of uncompressed bytes actually written
704
(0 in case of error).
707
extern int EXPORTVA gzprintf OF((gzFile file, const char *format, ...));
709
Converts, formats, and writes the args to the compressed file under
710
control of the format string, as in fprintf. gzprintf returns the number of
711
uncompressed bytes actually written (0 in case of error).
714
extern int EXPORT gzputc OF((gzFile file, int c));
716
Writes c, converted to an unsigned char, into the compressed file.
717
gzputc returns the value that was written, or -1 in case of error.
720
extern int EXPORT gzgetc OF((gzFile file));
722
Reads one byte from the compressed file. gzgetc returns this byte
723
or -1 in case of end of file or error.
726
extern int EXPORT gzflush OF((gzFile file, int flush));
728
Flushes all pending output into the compressed file. The parameter
729
flush is as in the deflate() function. The return value is the zlib
730
error number (see function gzerror below). gzflush returns Z_OK if
731
the flush parameter is Z_FINISH and all output could be flushed.
732
gzflush should be called only when strictly necessary because it can
736
extern z_off_t EXPORT gzseek OF((gzFile file, z_off_t offset, int whence));
738
Sets the starting position for the next gzread or gzwrite on the given
739
compressed file. The offset represents a number of bytes in the
740
uncompressed data stream. The whence parameter is defined as in lseek(2);
741
the value SEEK_END is not supported.
742
If the file is opened for reading, this function is emulated but can be
743
extremely slow. If the file is opened for writing, only forward seeks are
744
supported; gzseek then compresses a sequence of zeroes up to the new
747
gzseek returns the resulting offset location as measured in bytes from
748
the beginning of the uncompressed stream, or -1 in case of error, in
749
particular if the file is opened for writing and the new starting position
750
would be before the current position.
753
extern int EXPORT gzrewind OF((gzFile file));
755
Rewinds the given file. This function is supported only for reading.
757
gzrewind(file) is equivalent to (int)gzseek(file, 0L, SEEK_SET)
760
extern z_off_t EXPORT gztell OF((gzFile file));
762
Returns the starting position for the next gzread or gzwrite on the
763
given compressed file. This position represents a number of bytes in the
764
uncompressed data stream.
766
gztell(file) is equivalent to gzseek(file, 0L, SEEK_CUR)
769
extern int EXPORT gzeof OF((gzFile file));
771
Returns 1 when EOF has previously been detected reading the given
772
input stream, otherwise zero.
775
extern int EXPORT gzclose OF((gzFile file));
777
Flushes all pending output if necessary, closes the compressed file
778
and deallocates all the (de)compression state. The return value is the zlib
779
error number (see function gzerror below).
782
extern const char * EXPORT gzerror OF((gzFile file, int *errnum));
784
Returns the error message for the last error which occurred on the
785
given compressed file. errnum is set to zlib error number. If an
786
error occurred in the file system and not in the compression library,
787
errnum is set to Z_ERRNO and the application may consult errno
788
to get the exact error code.
791
/* checksum functions */
794
These functions are not related to compression but are exported
795
anyway because they might be useful in applications using the
799
extern uLong EXPORT adler32 OF((uLong adler, const Bytef *buf, uInt len));
802
Update a running Adler-32 checksum with the bytes buf[0..len-1] and
803
return the updated checksum. If buf is NULL, this function returns
804
the required initial value for the checksum.
805
An Adler-32 checksum is almost as reliable as a CRC32 but can be computed
806
much faster. Usage example:
808
uLong adler = adler32(0L, Z_NULL, 0);
810
while (read_buffer(buffer, length) != EOF) {
811
adler = adler32(adler, buffer, length);
813
if (adler != original_adler) error();
816
extern uLong EXPORT crc32 OF((uLong crc, const Bytef *buf, uInt len));
818
Update a running crc with the bytes buf[0..len-1] and return the updated
819
crc. If buf is NULL, this function returns the required initial value
820
for the crc. Pre- and post-conditioning (one's complement) is performed
821
within this function so it shouldn't be done by the application.
824
uLong crc = crc32(0L, Z_NULL, 0);
826
while (read_buffer(buffer, length) != EOF) {
827
crc = crc32(crc, buffer, length);
829
if (crc != original_crc) error();
