LZMA demo

Description

This demo show how to use the LZMA encoder/decoder library of xz util (formerly known as lzma utils).

Requirements

• Unix system

• xz utils

Compile

Sorry, there is no makefile, but it is very simple to compile the demo. Make sure you have the xz utils library install and your compiler find the include files (lzma.h) and the libraries (liblzma.*). Then type in:

    
gcc lzmapack.c -o lzmapack -llzma
gcc lzmaunpack.c -o lzmaunpack -llzma

Test

The demo is very simple. lzmapack read data from stdin and compress the data with the LZMA library (compression level 9) and write the compressed data to stdout. lzmaunpack read data from stdin and decompress the data with the LZMA library and write the decompressed data to stdout. A simple test for this demo is:

cat file1|./lzmapack|tee file2|./lzmaunpack > file3

'file1' and 'file3' should be identical, while file2 is the compressed data.

License

Demo is currently under GPL version 2.
