    std.compress.xz

    The .xz format, over liblzma: LZMA2, in streams with a CRC64 check. Its Compress and Decompress work at once, and its Compressor and Decompressor take bytes in turn and give what came out of them so far, for data that comes in parts. Levels are xz's presets, from 0, the fastest, to 9, the smallest, and are 6 by default, as xz's; the higher ones take much more memory, up to 674 MiB to compress at 9, and 65 MiB to decompress. A Decompress reads streams one after another, and the padding between them, as xz does.

    Types

    XZ struct 

    Public Struct XZ

    The .xz format's streams.

    std/compress/xz.fb, line 24

    • @PanicsAtCaller Public Static Method Compress(data: UInt8[], level: Int = 6): UInt8[] static method #

      The data, compressed at the level. Panics when the level isn't from 0 to 9.

    • @PanicsAtCaller Public Static Method Decompress(data: UInt8[], limit: Int = MOST_BYTES): UInt8[] Throws IOError static method #

      The bytes the data is compressed from, each stream's after the last's, or an IOError when it isn't XZ's, ends too soon, or would come to more than limit bytes. Panics when the limit is negative.

    XZCompressor class 

    Public Class XZCompressor Implements Coder

    XZ's bytes made in turn: Add gives what compressing the bytes it takes has made so far, and Finish what's left, which ends a stream, and starts again.

    std/compress/xz.fb, line 54

    • @PanicsAtCaller Public New(level: Int = 6) constructor #

      Panics when the level isn't from 0 to 9.

    • Public Method Add(data: UInt8[]): UInt8[] method #

      What data comes to so far, which can be nothing yet.

      Doc from std.compress.codec.Coder.Add.

    • Public Method Finish(): UInt8[] method #

      What's left once all the bytes are added, which ends what it makes, and starts it again.

      Doc from std.compress.codec.Coder.Finish.

    XZDecompressor class 

    Public Class XZDecompressor Implements Coder

    XZ's bytes taken in turn, a stream after another: Add gives what the bytes it takes decompress to so far, and Finish what's left once they've all been added, and starts again. Each throws an IOError when the bytes aren't XZ's or would come to more than the limit, and Finish when they end too soon.

    std/compress/xz.fb, line 84

    • @PanicsAtCaller Public New(limit: Int = MOST_BYTES) constructor #

      Panics when the limit is negative.

    • Public Method Add(data: UInt8[]): UInt8[] Throws IOError method #

      What data comes to so far, which can be nothing yet.

      Doc from std.compress.codec.Coder.Add.

    • Public Method Finish(): UInt8[] Throws IOError method #

      What's left once all the bytes are added, which ends what it makes, and starts it again.
