Module zlib

ZLIB Compression and Decompression. Requires zlib feature, enabled by default

This module contains an implementation of the ZLIB compression scheme. This compression format is based on an underlying DEFLATE-encoded stream.

Example

use compress::zlib;
use std::fs::File;
use std::path::Path;
use std::io::Read;

let stream = File::open(&Path::new("path/to/file.zlib")).unwrap();
let mut decompressed = Vec::new();
zlib::Decoder::new(stream).read_to_end(&mut decompressed);

Decoder

Structure used to decode a ZLIB-encoded stream. The wrapped stream can be re-acquired through the unwrap() method.
