Lzlib

The lzlib compression library provides in-memory LZMA compression and decompression functions, including integrity checking of the uncompressed data. The compressed data format used by the library is the lzip format.

The functions and variables forming the interface of the compression library are declared in the file lzlib.h. An usage example of the library is given in the file main.cc.

Compression/decompression is done by repeteadly calling a couple of read/write functions until all the data has been processed by the library. This interface is safer and less error prone than the traditional zlib interface.
