LZ👌

A minimal, C++14 implementation of the LZO compression format.

Objective

The implementation provides compression behavior similar to the lzo1x_999_compress function in lzo2 (i.e. higher compression, lower speed). The implementation is fixed to the default parameters of the original and provides no facilities for various compression "levels" or an initialization dictionary.

The decompressor is compatible with data compressed by other LZO1X implementations.

Usage

#include <lzokay.hpp>
#include <cstring>

int compress_and_decompress(const uint8_t* data, std::size_t length) {
  lzokay::EResult error;

  /* This variable and 5th parameter of compress() is optional, but may
   * be reused across multiple compression runs; avoiding repeat
   * allocation/deallocation of the work memory used by the compressor.
   */
  lzokay::Dict<> dict;

  std::size_t compressed_size = lzokay::compress_worst_size(length);
  std::unique_ptr<uint8_t[]> compressed(new uint8_t[compressed_size]);
  error = lzokay::compress(data, length, compressed.get(), compressed_size, dict);
  if (error < lzokay::EResult::Success)
    return 1;

  std::unique_ptr<uint8_t[]> decompressed(new uint8_t[length]);
  std::size_t decompressed_size = length;
  error = lzokay::decompress(compressed.get(), compressed_size,
                             decompressed.get(), decompressed_size);
  if (error < lzokay::EResult::Success)
    return 1;

  if (std::memcmp(data, decompressed.get(), decompressed_size) != 0)
    return 1;

  return 0;
}
