class LZ4CompressStream : public Stream

Provides LZ4 compression. LZ4 is extremely fast (400MB/s per CPU core) compression algorithm by Yann Collet, with average compression ration at around 60%. Compressed stream follows LZ4 frame format (and thus can be decompressed by commandline routines provided by LZ4 author, Yann Collet).

void Co(bool b = true)

Activates multithreaded mode. The parallelization is completely encapsulated, nothing special is required from calling thread.

void Open(Stream& out_)

LZ4CompressStream(Stream& out)

Sets the output stream where compressed data are stored.

class LZ4DecompressStream : public Stream

Provides LZ4 decompression. It is guaranteed to decompress stream compressed by plugin/lz4 and most (but not all) of lz4-frame format compliant streams.

void Co(bool b = true)

Activates multithreaded mode. The parallelization is completely encapsulated, nothing special is required from calling thread.

bool Open(Stream& in)

LZ4DecompressStream(Stream& in)

Sets the input stream from where compressed data are read.

String CoLZ4Decompress(const String& s, Gate<int64, int64> progress = Null)

Simple LZ4 compression/decompression functions. out in parameters are input / ouput streams and function returns the number of bytes stored to out, otherwise input is provided as memory block data of len bytes or as input String data and output is String return value. progress can be used to to track progress of operation and eventually interrupt it by returning true. Functions with Co prefix run multithreaded.

bool IsLZ4(Stream& s)

Checks the Stream for magic number identifying LZ4 stream. Seeks back after the check. Returns true if magic number was detected.
