I ran into problems with large streams, which is because the
ZStream
structure only takesUInt32
for e.g.avail_in
; and so does the zlib backend.I made some small adjustments to work around that, tests are passed with this modification.
I haven't added a test for the compression of large streams, as it might cause an OOM.
The decompressor wasn't modified, but in all cases I tested no problem occurred, maybe someone with a better understanding of the matter can have a look?
Cheers, Felix.
