It allows you -to do things like: - - gzofstream outf("blah.gz"); - outf << "These go into the gzip file " << 123 << endl; - -It does this by deriving a specialized stream buffer for gzipped files, which is -the way Stroustrup would have done it. :-> - -The gzifstream and gzofstream classes were originally written by Kevin Ruland -and made available in the zlib contrib/iostream directory. The older version still -compiles under gcc 2.xx, but not under gcc 3.xx, which sparked the development of -this version. - -The new classes are as standard-compliant as possible, closely following the -approach of the standard library's fstream classes. It compiles under gcc versions -3.2 and 3.3, but not under gcc 2.xx. This is mainly due to changes in the standard -library naming scheme. The new version of gzifstream/gzofstream/gzfilebuf differs -from the previous one in the following respects: -- added showmanyc -- added setbuf, with support for unbuffered output via setbuf(0,0) -- a few bug fixes of stream behavior -- gzipped output file opened with default compression level instead of maximum level -- setcompressionlevel()/strategy() members replaced by single setcompression() - -The code is provided "as is", with the permission to use, copy, modify, distribute -and sell it for any purpose without fee. - -Ludwig Schwardt -<schwardt@sun.ac.za> - -DSP Lab -Electrical & Electronic Engineering Department -University of Stellenbosch -South Africa |
