Class Deflater

java.lang.Object
  |
  +--java.util.zip.Deflater

public class Deflater
extends Object

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.

 // 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);

 // 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");

Constructor Detail

Deflater

public Deflater(int level,
                boolean nowrap)
Creates a new compressor using the specified compression level. If 'nowrap' is true then the ZLIB header and checksum fields will not be used in order to support the compression format used in both GZIP and PKZIP.

Parameters:
level - the compression level (0-9)
nowrap - if true then use GZIP compatible compression

Deflater

public Deflater(int level)
Creates a new compressor using the specified compression level. Compressed data will be generated in ZLIB format.

Parameters:
level - the compression level (0-9)

Deflater

public Deflater()
Creates a new compressor with the default compression level. Compressed data will be generated in ZLIB format.

Method Detail

setInput

public void setInput(byte[] b,
                     int off,
                     int len)
Sets input data for compression. This should be called whenever needsInput() returns true indicating that more input data is required.

Parameters:
b - the input data bytes
off - the start offset of the data
len - the length of the data
See Also:
needsInput()

setInput

public void setInput(byte[] b)
Sets input data for compression. This should be called whenever needsInput() returns true indicating that more input data is required.

Parameters:
b - the input data bytes
See Also:
needsInput()

setDictionary

public void setDictionary(byte[] b,
                          int off,
                          int len)
Sets preset dictionary for compression. A preset dictionary is used when the history buffer can be predetermined. When the data is later uncompressed with Inflater.inflate(), Inflater.getAdler() can be called in order to get the Adler-32 value of the dictionary required for decompression.

Parameters:
b - the dictionary data bytes
off - the start offset of the data
len - the length of the data
See Also:
Inflater.inflate(byte[], int, int), Inflater.getAdler()

setDictionary

public void setDictionary(byte[] b)
Sets preset dictionary for compression. A preset dictionary is used when the history buffer can be predetermined. When the data is later uncompressed with Inflater.inflate(), Inflater.getAdler() can be called in order to get the Adler-32 value of the dictionary required for decompression.

Parameters:
b - the dictionary data bytes
See Also:
Inflater.inflate(byte[], int, int), Inflater.getAdler()

setStrategy

public void setStrategy(int strategy)
Sets the compression strategy to the specified value.

Parameters:
strategy - the new compression strategy
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the compression strategy is invalid

setLevel

public void setLevel(int level)
Sets the current compression level to the specified value.

Parameters:
level - the new compression level (0-9)
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the compression level is invalid

needsInput

Returns true if the input data buffer is empty and setInput() should be called in order to provide more input.

Returns:
true if the input data buffer is empty and setInput() should be called in order to provide more input

finish

public void finish()
When called, indicates that compression should end with the current contents of the input buffer.


finished

public boolean finished()
Returns true if the end of the compressed data output stream has been reached.

Returns:
true if the end of the compressed data output stream has been reached

deflate

public int deflate(byte[] b,
                   int off,
                   int len)
Fills specified buffer with compressed data. Returns actual number of bytes of compressed data. A return value of 0 indicates that needsInput() should be called in order to determine if more input data is required.

Parameters:
b - the buffer for the compressed data
off - the start offset of the data
len - the maximum number of bytes of compressed data
Returns:
the actual number of bytes of compressed data

deflate

public int deflate(byte[] b)
Fills specified buffer with compressed data. Returns actual number of bytes of compressed data. A return value of 0 indicates that needsInput() should be called in order to determine if more input data is required.

Parameters:
b - the buffer for the compressed data
Returns:
the actual number of bytes of compressed data

getAdler

public int getAdler()
Returns the ADLER-32 value of the uncompressed data.

the ADLER-32 value of the uncompressed data

getTotalIn

public int getTotalIn()
Returns the total number of bytes input so far.

Returns:
the total number of bytes input so far

getTotalOut

public int getTotalOut()
Returns the total number of bytes output so far.

the total number of bytes output so far

reset

public void reset()
Resets deflater so that a new set of input data can be processed. Keeps current compression level and strategy settings.


end

public void end()
Closes the compressor and discards any unprocessed input. This method should be called when the compressor is no longer being used, but will also be called automatically by the finalize() method. Once this method is called, the behavior of the Deflater object is undefined.


finalize

protected void finalize()
Closes the compressor when garbage is collected.

Overrides:
finalize in class Object
