std.zlib

class ZlibException: object.Exception;

Errors throw a ZlibException.

uint adler32(uint adler, const(void)[] buf);

Compute the Adler-32 checksum of a buffer's worth of data.

Parameters:

uint adler	the starting checksum for the computation. Use 0 for a new checksum. Use the output of this function for a cumulative checksum.
const(void)[] buf	buffer containing input data

Returns:

A uint checksum for the provided input data and starting checksum

uint crc32(uint crc, const(void)[] buf);

Compute the CRC32 checksum of a buffer's worth of data.

Parameters:

uint crc	the starting checksum for the computation. Use 0 for a new checksum. Use the output of this function for a cumulative checksum.
const(void)[] buf	buffer containing input data

Returns:

A uint checksum for the provided input data and starting checksum

const(void)[] compress(const(void)[] srcbuf, int level);
const(void)[] compress(const(void)[] srcbuf);

Compress data

Parameters:

const(void)[] srcbuf	buffer containing the data to compress
int level	compression level. Legal values are 1..9, with 1 being the least compression and 9 being the most. The default value is 6.

Returns:

the compressed data

void[] uncompress(void[] srcbuf, size_t destlen = 0u, int winbits = 15);

Decompresses the data in srcbuf[].

Parameters:

void[] srcbuf	buffer containing the compressed data.
size_t destlen	size of the uncompressed data. It need not be accurate, but the decompression will be faster if the exact size is supplied.
int winbits	the base two logarithm of the maximum window size.

Returns:

the decompressed data.

enum HeaderFormat: int;

the header format the compressed stream is wrapped in

deflate

a standard zlib header

gzip

a gzip file format header

determineFromData

used when decompressing. Try to automatically detect the stream format by looking at the data

class Compress;

Used when the data to be compressed is not all in one buffer.

this(int level, HeaderFormat header = HeaderFormat.deflate);
this(HeaderFormat header = HeaderFormat.deflate);

Constructor.

Parameters:

int level	compression level. Legal values are 1..9, with 1 being the least compression and 9 being the most. The default value is 6.
HeaderFormat header	sets the compression type to one of the options available in HeaderFormat. Defaults to HeaderFormat.deflate.

const(void)[] compress(const(void)[] buf);

Compress the data in buf and return the compressed data.

Parameters:

const(void)[] buf

data to compress

Returns:

the compressed data. The buffers returned from successive calls to this should be concatenated together.

void[] flush(int mode = Z_FINISH);

Compress and return any remaining data. The returned data should be appended to that returned by compress().

Parameters:

int mode

one of the following: Z_SYNC_FLUSH Syncs up flushing to the next byte boundary. Used when more data is to be compressed later on. Z_FULL_FLUSH Syncs up flushing to the next byte boundary. Used when more data is to be compressed later on, and the decompressor needs to be restartable at this point. Z_FINISH (default) Used when finished compressing the data.

class UnCompress;

Used when the data to be decompressed is not all in one buffer.

this(uint destbufsize);
this(HeaderFormat format = HeaderFormat.determineFromData);

Construct. destbufsize is the same as for D.zlib.uncompress().

const(void)[] uncompress(const(void)[] buf);

Decompress the data in buf and return the decompressed data. The buffers returned from successive calls to this should be concatenated together.

void[] flush();

Decompress and return any remaining data. The returned data should be appended to that returned by uncompress(). The UnCompress object cannot be used further.
