README

1ZLIB DATA COMPRESSION LIBRARY
2
3zlib 1.2.11 is a general purpose data compression library.  All the code is
4thread safe.  The data format used by the zlib library is described by RFCs
5(Request for Comments) 1950 to 1952 in the files
6http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1950 (zlib format), rfc1951 (deflate format) and
7rfc1952 (gzip format).
8
9All functions of the compression library are documented in the file zlib.h
10(volunteer to write man pages welcome, contact zlib@gzip.org).  A usage example
11of the library is given in the file test/example.c which also tests that
12the library is working correctly.  Another example is given in the file
13test/minigzip.c.  The compression library itself is composed of all source
14files in the root directory.
15
16To compile all files and run the test program, follow the instructions given at
17the top of Makefile.in.  In short "./configure; make test", and if that goes
18well, "make install" should work for most flavors of Unix.  For Windows, use
19one of the special makefiles in win32/ or contrib/vstudio/ .  For VMS, use
20make_vms.com.
21
22Questions about zlib should be sent to <zlib@gzip.org>, or to Gilles Vollant
23<info@winimage.com> for the Windows DLL version.  The zlib home page is
24http://zlib.net/ .  Before reporting a problem, please check this site to
25verify that you have the latest version of zlib; otherwise get the latest
26version and check whether the problem still exists or not.
27
28PLEASE read the zlib FAQ http://zlib.net/zlib_faq.html before asking for help.
29
30Mark Nelson <markn@ieee.org> wrote an article about zlib for the Jan.  1997
31issue of Dr.  Dobb's Journal; a copy of the article is available at
32http://marknelson.us/1997/01/01/zlib-engine/ .
33
34The changes made in version 1.2.11 are documented in the file ChangeLog.
35
36Unsupported third party contributions are provided in directory contrib/ .
37
38zlib is available in Java using the java.util.zip package, documented at
39http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/Programming/compression/ .
40
41A Perl interface to zlib written by Paul Marquess <pmqs@cpan.org> is available
42at CPAN (Comprehensive Perl Archive Network) sites, including
43http://search.cpan.org/~pmqs/IO-Compress-Zlib/ .
44
45A Python interface to zlib written by A.M. Kuchling <amk@amk.ca> is
46available in Python 1.5 and later versions, see
47http://docs.python.org/library/zlib.html .
48
49zlib is built into tcl: http://wiki.tcl.tk/4610 .
50
51An experimental package to read and write files in .zip format, written on top
52of zlib by Gilles Vollant <info@winimage.com>, is available in the
53contrib/minizip directory of zlib.
54

56Notes for some targets:
57
58- For Windows DLL versions, please see win32/DLL_FAQ.txt
59
60- For 64-bit Irix, deflate.c must be compiled without any optimization. With
61  -O, one libpng test fails. The test works in 32 bit mode (with the -n32
62  compiler flag). The compiler bug has been reported to SGI.
63
64- zlib doesn't work with gcc 2.6.3 on a DEC 3000/300LX under OSF/1 2.1 it works
65  when compiled with cc.
66
67- On Digital Unix 4.0D (formely OSF/1) on AlphaServer, the cc option -std1 is
68  necessary to get gzprintf working correctly. This is done by configure.
69
70- zlib doesn't work on HP-UX 9.05 with some versions of /bin/cc. It works with
71  other compilers. Use "make test" to check your compiler.
72
73- gzdopen is not supported on RISCOS or BEOS.
74
75- For PalmOs, see http://palmzlib.sourceforge.net/

80  The deflate format used by zlib was defined by Phil Katz.  The deflate and
81  zlib specifications were written by L.  Peter Deutsch.  Thanks to all the
82  people who reported problems and suggested various improvements in zlib; they
83  are too numerous to cite here.

1# zlib fork for VTK
2
3This branch contains changes required to embed zlib into VTK. This includes
4changes made primarily to the build system to allow it to be embedded into
5another source tree as well as a header to facilitate mangling of the symbols
6to avoid conflicts with other copies of the library within a single process.
7
8  * Ignore whitespace problems for VTK's commit checks.
9  * Integration with VTK's module system.
10  * Mangle all exported symbols to have a `vtkzlib_` prefix.
