Class UncompressedGzipEncoder

Creates an uncompressed data stream that is compatible with gzip decoders expecting compressed data. This has a write and a read method, which should be used from different tasks to prevent deadlocks.

Class summary


Constructors

Methods

close -> none
Closes the writer.
Deprecated. Use out.close instead.

A reader that can be used to read the compressed or decompressed data output by the Encoder or Decoder.
By default the CompressionReader blocks until there is data available.
Use CompressionReader.read with the '--wait' flag set to false to get an empty ByteArray when the buffers are empty, and a call to the write method is needed.

operator == other/any -> bool
Whether this object is equal to the other.
By default, identical is used for equality.
Inheritance
Classes overwrite this operator to get an equality specific to their needs. Equality operators often compare the type and field contents. For example:

class Pin:
  number/int

  constructor .number:

  operator == other:
    if other is not Pin: return false
    return number == other.number
A class doesn't have to follow the above format, but it must keep the operator in sync with any hash-code method. That is, if a class has a hash-code member, then the equality and hash-code must agree. If two instances are equal (a == b), then their hash codes must also be equal (a.hash-code == b.hash-code).

A writer that can be used to write data to the Encoder or Decoder.
If the writers io.Writer.try-write returns 0, then that means that the read method must be called because the buffers are full.

Deprecated. Use in instead.

Stringifies this object.
Inheritance
Objects that need a human-friendly string representation should overwrite this method. The default string is based on the internal class-ID.

write --wait/bool=true data/Data from/int=0 to/int=data.byte-size -> int
Writes data to the compressor or decompressor.
If wait is false, it may return before all data has been written. If it returns zero, then that means the read method must be called because the buffers are full.
Deprecated. Use out.try-write or out.write instead.
