All the code is -thread safe. The data format used by the zlib library is described by RFCs -(Request for Comments) 1950 to 1952 in the files -http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1950.txt (zlib format), rfc1951.txt (deflate format) -and rfc1952.txt (gzip format). - -All functions of the compression library are documented in the file zlib.h -(volunteer to write man pages welcome, contact zlib@gzip.org). Two compiled -examples are distributed in this package, example and minigzip. The example_d -and minigzip_d flavors validate that the zlib1.dll file is working correctly. - -Questions about zlib should be sent to <zlib@gzip.org>. The zlib home page -is http://zlib.net/ . Before reporting a problem, please check this site to -verify that you have the latest version of zlib; otherwise get the latest -version and check whether the problem still exists or not. - -PLEASE read DLL_FAQ.txt, and the the zlib FAQ http://zlib.net/zlib_faq.html -before asking for help. - - -Manifest: - -The package zlib-1.2.4-win32-x86.zip contains the following files: - - README-WIN32.txt This document - ChangeLog Changes since previous zlib packages - DLL_FAQ.txt Frequently asked questions about zlib1.dll - zlib.3.pdf Documentation of this library in Adobe Acrobat format - - example.exe A statically-bound example (using zlib.lib, not the dll) - example.pdb Symbolic information for debugging example.exe - - example_d.exe A zlib1.dll bound example (using zdll.lib) - example_d.pdb Symbolic information for debugging example_d.exe - - minigzip.exe A statically-bound test program (using zlib.lib, not the dll) - minigzip.pdb Symbolic information for debugging minigzip.exe - - minigzip_d.exe A zlib1.dll bound test program (using zdll.lib) - minigzip_d.pdb Symbolic information for debugging minigzip_d.exe - - zlib.h Install these files into the compilers' INCLUDE path to - zconf.h compile programs which use zlib.lib or zdll.lib - - zdll.lib Install these files into the compilers' LIB path if linking - zdll.exp a compiled program to the zlib1.dll binary - - zlib.lib Install these files into the compilers' LIB path to link zlib - zlib.pdb into compiled programs, without zlib1.dll runtime dependency - (zlib.pdb provides debugging info to the compile time linker) - - zlib1.dll Install this binary shared library into the system PATH, or - the program's runtime directory (where the .exe resides) - zlib1.pdb Install in the same directory as zlib1.dll, in order to debug - an application crash using WinDbg or similar tools. - -All .pdb files above are entirely optional, but are very useful to a developer -attempting to diagnose program misbehavior or a crash. Many additional -important files for developers can be found in the zlib124.zip source package -available from http://zlib.net/ - review that package's README file for details. - - -Acknowledgments: - -The deflate format used by zlib was defined by Phil Katz. The deflate and -zlib specifications were written by L. Peter Deutsch. Thanks to all the -people who reported problems and suggested various improvements in zlib; they -are too numerous to cite here. - - -Copyright notice: - - (C) 1995-2010 Jean-loup Gailly and Mark Adler - - This software is provided 'as-is', without any express or implied - warranty.
