Revision as of 08:44, 12 July 2012

org.simantics.fastlz is a simple JNI wrapper for different open-source real-time data compression libraries. The native library contains pure C implementations. The library also contains pure Java ports of the algorithms which are employed by the front-end if the native library is not available or if arguments are java heap buffers instead of native direct buffers.

Current codecs:

FastLZ
Our version is based on SVN revision 12.
LZ4
Our version is based on SVN revision 68.

Dependencies

  • None, it is a self-sufficient JAR ready for deployment as OSGi bundle or POJO
  • Data to compress/decompress!

Manual

Use of both FastLZ and LZ4 codecs happens through the org.simantics.fastlz.CompressionCodec interface and the org.simantics.fastlz.Compressions facade class:

<syntaxhighlight lang="java"> public final class Compressions {

public static final String FASTLZ = "FastLZ"; public static final String LZ4 = "LZ4";

public static CompressionCodec get(String codec);

}

public interface CompressionCodec {

int compressBound(int inputSize); int compressBuffer(ByteBuffer input, int inputOffset, int length, ByteBuffer output, int outputOffset);

int decompressBuffer(ByteBuffer input, int inputOffset, int length, ByteBuffer output, int outputOffset, int maxout);

InputStream read(File file) throws FileNotFoundException; OutputStream write(File file) throws FileNotFoundException;

} </syntaxhighlight>

ByteBuffers used in this interface can be either heap (ByteBuffer.allocate) or direct (ByteBuffer.allocateDirect). Use the same buffer type for both arguments for best performance.

See the actual code for proper Javadoc.
