C1ZStreamWriter Constructor(Stream,Boolean)

In This Topic

Initializes a new instance of the C1ZStreamWriter class.

Syntax

Public Function New( _
   ByVal baseStream As Stream, _
   ByVal zip As Boolean _
)

public C1ZStreamWriter( 
   Stream baseStream,
   bool zip
)

baseStream: Output stream that will contain the compressed data.
zip: Specifies whether the compressed stream should be compatible with zip files.

Remarks

Streams in zip files are different from regular zlib streams in two aspects:

(1) zip streams do not contain any local header information (the information is stored in the zip file headers instead) and

(2) zip streams use a CRC32 checksum instead of the adler32 checksum used by zlib streams.
