============================================================================ miniLZO -- mini subset of the LZO real-time data compression library ============================================================================ Author : Markus Franz Xaver Johannes Oberhumer <markus@oberhumer.com> http://www.oberhumer.com/opensource/lzo/ Version : 2.06 Date : 12 Aug 2011 I've created miniLZO for projects where it is inconvenient to include (or require) the full LZO source code just because you want to add a little bit of data compression to your application. miniLZO implements the LZO1X-1 compressor and both the standard and safe LZO1X decompressor. Apart from fast compression it also useful for situations where you want to use pre-compressed data files (which must have been compressed with LZO1X-999). miniLZO consists of one C source file and three header files: minilzo.c minilzo.h, lzoconf.h, lzodefs.h To use miniLZO just copy these files into your source directory, add minilzo.c to your Makefile and #include minilzo.h from your program. Note: you also must distribute this file ('README.LZO') with your project. minilzo.o compiles to about 6 KiB (using gcc or Visual C on an i386), and the sources are about 30 KiB when packed with zip - so there's no more excuse that your application doesn't support data compression :-) For more information, documentation, example programs and other support files (like Makefiles and build scripts) please download the full LZO package from http://www.oberhumer.com/opensource/lzo/ Have fun, Markus P.S. minilzo.c is generated automatically from the LZO sources and therefore functionality is completely identical Appendix A: building miniLZO ---------------------------- miniLZO is written such a way that it should compile and run out-of-the-box on most machines. If you are running on a very unusual architecture and lzo_init() fails then you should first recompile with '-DLZO_DEBUG' to see what causes the failure. The most probable case is something like 'sizeof(void *) != sizeof(size_t)'. After identifying the problem you can compile by adding some defines like '-DSIZEOF_VOID_P=8' to your Makefile. The best solution is (of course) using Autoconf - if your project uses Autoconf anyway just add '-DMINILZO_HAVE_CONFIG_H' to your compiler flags when compiling minilzo.c. See the LZO distribution for an example how to set up configure.ac.
