Methods

impl Filters
[src]

Creates a new filter chain with no filters.

Add an LZMA1 filter.

LZMA1 is the very same thing as what was called just LZMA in LZMA Utils, 7-Zip, and LZMA SDK. It's called LZMA1 here to prevent developers from accidentally using LZMA when they actually want LZMA2.

LZMA1 shouldn't be used for new applications unless you really know what you are doing. LZMA2 is almost always a better choice.

Add an LZMA2 filter.

Usually you want this instead of LZMA1. Compared to LZMA1, LZMA2 adds support for SyncFlush, uncompressed chunks (smaller expansion when trying to compress uncompressible data), possibility to change literal_context_bits/literal_position_bits/position_bits in the middle of encoding, and some other internal improvements.
