class DeflateWriter
pub class DeflateWriter<W :: [Writer]> :: [Writer, Closeable]
Conforms to Writer, Closeable.
A Writer that compresses the bytes given into raw DEFLATE blocks written to inner; close
writes the final block. Level 0 stores, 1 uses the fixed tables over a greedy LZ77, 2 and up
dynamic tables, 4 and up lazy matching.
Methods
pub static fn new(inner: W, level: int = 6): DeflateWriter<W> throws CompressError
Returns a writer at the level 0..9; 6 is the default, and -1 means 6.
Errors
Throws CompressError for a level outside -1 to 9.
pub fn bytesIn(): int
Returns the number of bytes taken so far.
pub fn bytesOut(): int
Returns the number of bytes written so far (the block under way not counted).
pub mut fn write(from: Slice<uint8>): int throws [IoError, Cancelled]
pub mut fn flush(): void throws [IoError, Cancelled]
pub fn close(): void throws [IoError, Cancelled]
Writes the final block and flushes the inner writer. A second close does nothing.
Errors
Throws IoError where writing to inner fails, and Cancelled where the task is
cancelled during the write.
