- 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.
