# CompressTool A tool to losslessly compress data, and expand the compressed data again.
Methods
static CompressTool | getInstance() Get a new instance.
static CompressTool | getInstance() Get a new instance. Each instance uses a separate buffer, so multiple instances can be used concurrently. However each instance alone is not multithreading safe. Returns: a new instance
static int | getVariableIntLength(int x) Get a variable size integer length using Rice coding.
static int | getVariableIntLength(int x) Get a variable size integer length using Rice coding. Negative values need 5 bytes. Parameters: x - the value Returns: the number of bytes needed (0-5)
static int | readVariableInt(byte[] buff, int pos) Read a variable size integer using Rice coding.
static int | readVariableInt(byte[] buff, int pos) Read a variable size integer using Rice coding. Parameters: buff - the buffer pos - the position Returns: the integer
static int | writeVariableInt(byte[] buff, int pos, int x) Write a variable size integer using Rice coding.
static int | writeVariableInt(byte[] buff, int pos, int x) Write a variable size integer using Rice coding. Negative values need 5 bytes. Parameters: buff - the buffer pos - the position x - the value Returns: the number of bytes written (0-5)
byte[] | compress(byte[] in, String algorithm) Compressed the data using the specified algorithm.
byte[] | compress(byte[] in, String algorithm) Compressed the data using the specified algorithm. If no algorithm is supplied, LZF is used Parameters: in - the byte array with the original data algorithm - the algorithm (LZF, DEFLATE) Returns: the compressed data
byte[] | expand(byte[] in) Expands the compressed data.
byte[] | expand(byte[] in) Expands the compressed data. Parameters: in - the byte array with the compressed data Returns: the uncompressed data
