Field Documentation

compress

int(* msoab_compressor::compress) (struct msoab_compressor *self, const char *input, const char *output)

Compress a full OAB file.

The input file will be read and the compressed contents written to the output file.

Parameters

self	a self-referential pointer to the msoab_decompressor instance being called
input	the filename of the input file. This is passed directly to mspack_system::open().
output	the filename of the output file. This is passed directly to mspack_system::open().

Returns

an error code, or MSPACK_ERR_OK if successful

compress_incremental

int(* msoab_compressor::compress_incremental) (struct msoab_compressor *self, const char *input, const char *base, const char *output)

Generate a compressed incremental OAB patch file.

The two uncompressed files "input" and "base" will be read, and an incremental patch to generate "input" from "base" will be written to the output file.

Parameters

self	a self-referential pointer to the msoab_compressor instance being called
input	the filename of the input file containing the new version of its contents. This is passed directly to mspack_system::open().
base	the filename of the original base file containing the old version of its contents, against which the incremental patch shall generated. This is passed directly to mspack_system::open().
output	the filename of the output file. This is passed directly to mspack_system::open().

Returns

an error code, or MSPACK_ERR_OK if successful
