package java.util.zip;


This class provides support for general purpose compression using the
popular ZLIB compression library. The ZLIB compression library was
initially developed as part of the PNG graphics standard and is not
protected by patents. It is fully described in the specifications at
the java.util.zip
package description.

The following code fragment demonstrates a trivial compression
and decompression of a string using Deflater and
Inflater.

try {
    // Encode a String into bytes
    String inputString = "blahblahblah";
    byte[] input = inputString.getBytes("UTF-8");
    // Compress the bytes
    byte[] output = new byte[100];
    Deflater compresser = new Deflater();
    compresser.setInput(input);
    compresser.finish();
    int compressedDataLength = compresser.deflate(output);
    compresser.end();
    // Decompress the bytes
    Inflater decompresser = new Inflater();
    decompresser.setInput(output, 0, compressedDataLength);
    byte[] result = new byte[100];
    int resultLength = decompresser.inflate(result);
    decompresser.end();
    // Decode the bytes into a String
    String outputString = new String(result, 0, resultLength, "UTF-8");
} catch(java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException ex) {
    // handle
} catch (java.util.zip.DataFormatException ex) {

Compresses the input data and fills the specified buffer with compressed
data. Returns actual number of bytes of data compressed.

Compression flush mode is one of the following three modes:

    

  • NO_FLUSH: allows the deflater to decide how much data to accumulate, before producing output, in order to achieve the best compression (should be used in normal use scenario). A return value of 0 in this flush mode indicates that needsInput() should be called in order to determine if more input data is required. 
  • SYNC_FLUSH: all pending output in the deflater is flushed, to the specified output buffer, so that an inflater that works on compressed data can get all input data available so far (In particular the needsInput() returns true after this invocation if enough output space is provided). Flushing with SYNC_FLUSH may degrade compression for some compression algorithms and so it should be used only when necessary. 
  • FULL_FLUSH: all pending output is flushed out as with SYNC_FLUSH. The compression state is reset so that the inflater that works on the compressed output data can restart from this point if previous compressed data has been damaged or if random access is desired. Using FULL_FLUSH too often can seriously degrade compression. 


In the case of FULL_FLUSH or SYNC_FLUSH, if the return value is len, the space available in output buffer b, this method should be invoked again with the same flush parameter and more output space. 
Params:
  • b – the buffer for the compressed data
  • off – the start offset of the data
  • len – the maximum number of bytes of compressed data
  • flush – the compression flush mode
