Detailed Description

Abstract Compression class which is inherited by implementations of compression engines such as zlib.

In order to add a new compression method, you simply need to add a new class which is a sub-class of the Compressor. The subclass needs to implement the Deflate, DeflateBound, Clone, and WillHandle functions. For information on the WillHandle function, read up on the PolymorphicConstruction class. The new sub-class must be listed in the implementation of the Compressor::RegisterPlugins function.

Member Function Documentation

virtual Compressor* zlib::Compressor::Clone ( )

pure virtual

Implemented in zlib::EchoCompressor, and zlib::ZlibCompressor.

virtual bool zlib::Compressor::Deflate ( const bool  flush, unsigned char **  inbuf, size_t *  inbufsize, unsigned char **  outbuf, size_t *  outbufsize  )

pure virtual

Deflate function. The arguments and returns closely match the input and output of the zlib deflate function. Input:

• outbuf - Output buffer to write the compressed data.
• outbufsize - Size of the output buffer
• inbuf - Input data to be compressed
• inbufsize - Size of the input buffer
• flush - Whether the compression stream should be flushed / finished Upon return: returns: true - if done compressing, false otherwise
• outbuf - output buffer pointer (unchanged from input)
• outbufsize - The number of bytes used in the outbuf
• inbuf - Pointer to the next byte of input to read in
• inbufsize - the remaining bytes of input to read in.
• flush - unchanged from input

Implemented in zlib::EchoCompressor, and zlib::ZlibCompressor.

Here is the caller graph for this function:

virtual size_t zlib::Compressor::DeflateBound ( const size_t  bytes )

pure virtual

Return an upper bound on the number of bytes required in order to compress an input number of bytes. Returns: Upper bound on the number of bytes required to compress.

Implemented in zlib::EchoCompressor, and zlib::ZlibCompressor.
