Global Functions

void compress(
    void* inData,
    size_t inDataSize,
    std::vector<unsigned char>& outData
    )

Compress an array of bytes into another one.

void compress(
    const std::vector<unsigned char>& inData,
    std::vector<unsigned char>& outData
    )

Compress an array of bytes into another one.

void compress(void* inData, size_t inDataSize, mrpt::io::CStream& out)

Compress an array of bytes and write the result into a stream.

void compress(const std::vector<unsigned char>& inData, mrpt::io::CStream& out)

Compress an array of bytes and write the result into a stream.

void decompress(
    void* inData,
    size_t inDataSize,
    std::vector<unsigned char>& outData,
    size_t outDataEstimatedSize
    )

Decompress an array of bytes into another one.

Parameters:

std::exception

If the apriori estimated decompressed size is not enough

void decompress(
    void* inData,
    size_t inDataSize,
    void* outData,
    size_t outDataBufferSize,
    size_t& outDataActualSize
    )

Decompress an array of bytes into another one.

Parameters:

std::exception

If the apriori estimated decompressed size is not enough

void decompress(
    mrpt::io::CStream& inStream,
    size_t inDataSize,
    void* outData,
    size_t outDataBufferSize,
    size_t& outDataActualSize
    )

Decompress an array of bytes into another one.

Parameters:

std::exception

If the apriori estimated decompressed size is not enough

bool decompress_gz_file(
    const std::string& file_path,
    std::vector<uint8_t>& buffer
    )

Decompress a gzip file (xxxx.gz) into a memory buffer.

If the file is not a .gz file, it just read the whole file unmodified.

Returns:

true on success, false on error.

compress_gz_file, decompress_gz_data_block

bool compress_gz_file(
    const std::string& file_path,
    const std::vector<uint8_t>& buffer,
    const int compress_level = 9
    )

Compress a memory buffer into a gzip file (xxxx.gz).

compress_level: 0=no compression, 1=best speed, 9=maximum

Returns:

true on success, false on error.

decompress_gz_file, compress_gz_data_block

bool compress_gz_data_block(
    const std::vector<uint8_t>& in_data,
    std::vector<uint8_t>& out_gz_data,
    const int compress_level = 9
    )

Compress a memory buffer in gz-file format and return it as a block a memory.

compress_level: 0=no compression, 1=best speed, 9=maximum If in_data is empty, an empty buffer is returned in out_gz_data and no error is reported.

Returns:

true on success, false on error.

compress_gz_file, de

bool decompress_gz_data_block(
    const std::vector<uint8_t>& in_gz_data,
    std::vector<uint8_t>& out_data
    )

Decompress an array of bytes storing a gz-compressed stream of data into a memory buffer.

If the input data is not recognized as a .gz file, the output data will be an exact copy of the input.

Returns:

true on success, false on error.
