int CalculateMaximumMemory

(

int

size

)

Given an input size calculate the maximum absolute worse case for the compressed output

Parameters:

size

the size of the data

Returns:

the worse case output length

bool Compress	(	void *	source_data,
		int	source_length,
		void *	destination_data,
		int *	destination_length,
		int	level = 10
	)

Compress a block of memory

Parameters:

	source_data	the source data
	source_length	the source data length in bytes
	destination_data	the destination data
	destination_length	the pointer to the destination data length in bytes to fill in
	level	the compression level to use. 1 is fast and 10 is best but slower. The default for this parameter is 10

Returns:

true is no error else false for an error

bool Decompress	(	void *	source_data,
		int	source_length,
		void *	destination_data,
		int *	destination_length
	)

Decompress a block of memory

Parameters:

	source_data	the source data
	source_length	the source data length in bytes
	destination_data	the destination data
	destination_length	the pointer to the destination data length in bytes to fill in

Returns:

true is no error else false for an error
