Ocamlnet 4 Reference Manual : Netgzip

# Module Netgzip

    module Netgzip: sig .. end

Gzip object channels

OPAM users: Note that the OPAM package for OCamlnet does not build with GZIP support by default. The trigger for this is the presence of the `camlzip` OPAM package, i.e. do `opam install camlzip` to include the `netzip` library in a rebuild.

    class input_gzip : Gzip.in_channel -> Netchannels.in_obj_channel

A `Gzip.in_channel` turned into a `Netchannels.in_obj_channel`

    class output_gzip : Gzip.out_channel -> Netchannels.out_obj_channel

A `Gzip.out_channel` turned into a `Netchannels.out_obj_channel`

    class inflating_pipe : unit -> Netchannels.io_obj_channel

An inflating (uncompressing) pipe for gzip data, to be used in filters

    class deflating_pipe : ?level:int -> unit -> Netchannels.io_obj_channel

A deflating (compressing) pipe for gzip data, to be used in filters

    class input_inflate : Netchannels.in_obj_channel -> Netchannels.in_obj_channel

`let ch' = new input_inflate ch`: Reading data from `ch'` inflates data read from `ch`.

    class input_deflate : ?level:int -> Netchannels.in_obj_channel -> Netchannels.in_obj_channel

`let ch' = new input_deflate ch`: Reading data from `ch'` deflates data read from `ch`.

    class output_inflate : Netchannels.out_obj_channel -> Netchannels.out_obj_channel

`let ch' = new output_inflate ch`: Data written to `ch'` is inflated and written to `ch`.

    class output_deflate : ?level:int -> Netchannels.out_obj_channel -> Netchannels.out_obj_channel

`let ch' = new output_deflate ch`: Data written to `ch'` is deflated and written to `ch`.

    val init : unit -> unit

By calling this function it is enforced that the (de)-compression algorithms are registered at `Netcompression`.
