Notes:
Compress uses the zlib library in version 1.1.3. Compression level is going from 0 to 9, where 0 is no compression and 9 is best compression. | ||||
UnCompress(data as string,size as integer) as string | ||||
| global method, Compression | So, 28. Apr 2002 | |||
| Mac OS Classic: Works. | Mac OS Carbon: Works. | Windows: Works. | ||
|
Function:
Uncompresses the data and returns it as string. | ||||
|
Example:
s=uncompress(s,10000) | ||||
|
Notes:
Uncompress uses the zlib library in version 1.1.3. As Uncompress can't know the size of the uncompressed data you should give it a hint. Best is to save the size of the umcompressed data on compression. Else you must guess the size which can be 10 times the size of the compressed data. | ||||
