Instead it uses the <code>IO::Compress::Gzip</code> and <code>IO::Uncompress::Gunzip</code> modules for reading/writing gzip files, and the <code>Compress::Raw::Zlib</code> module for some low-level zlib access.</p> <p>The interface provided by version 2 of this module should be 100% backward compatible with version 1. If you find a difference in the expected behaviour please contact the author (See <a href="#AUTHOR">"AUTHOR"</a>). See <a href="#GZIP-INTERFACE">"GZIP INTERFACE"</a></p> <p>With the creation of the <code>IO::Compress</code> and <code>IO::Uncompress</code> modules no new features are planned for <code>Compress::Zlib</code> - the new modules do everything that <code>Compress::Zlib</code> does and then some. Development on <code>Compress::Zlib</code> will be limited to bug fixes only.</p> <p>If you are writing new code, your first port of call should be one of the new <code>IO::Compress</code> or <code>IO::Uncompress</code> modules.</p> <h1 id="GZIP-INTERFACE"><a id="GZIP"></a>GZIP INTERFACE</h1> <p>A number of functions are supplied in <i>zlib</i> for reading and writing <i>gzip</i> files that conform to RFC 1952. This module provides an interface to most of them.</p> <p>If you have previously used <code>Compress::Zlib</code> 1.x, the following enhancements/changes have been made to the <code>gzopen</code> interface:</p> <ol> <li><p>If you want to open either STDIN or STDOUT with <code>gzopen</code>, you can now optionally use the special filename "<code>-</code>" as a synonym for <code>\*STDIN</code> and <code>\*STDOUT</code>.</p> </li> <li><p>In <code>Compress::Zlib</code> version 1.x, <code>gzopen</code> used the zlib library to open the underlying file. This made things especially tricky when a Perl filehandle was passed to <code>gzopen</code>. Behind the scenes the numeric C file descriptor had to be extracted from the Perl filehandle and this passed to the zlib library.</p> <p>Apart from being non-portable to some operating systems, this made it difficult to use <code>gzopen</code> in situations where you wanted to extract/create a gzip data stream that is embedded in a larger file, without having to resort to opening and closing the file multiple times.</p> <p>It also made it impossible to pass a perl filehandle that wasn't associated with a real filesystem file, like, say, an <code>IO::String</code>.</p> <p>In <code>Compress::Zlib</code> version 2.x, the <code>gzopen</code> interface has been completely rewritten to use the <a href="/pod/IO::Compress::Gzip">IO::Compress::Gzip</a> for writing gzip files and <a href="/pod/IO::Uncompress::Gunzip">IO::Uncompress::Gunzip</a> for reading gzip files. None of the limitations mentioned above apply.</p> </li> <li><p>Addition of <code>gzseek</code> to provide a restricted <code>seek</code> interface.</p> </li> <li><p>Added <code>gztell</code>.</p> </li> </ol> <p>A more complete and flexible interface for reading/writing gzip files/buffers is included with the module <code>IO-Compress-Zlib</code>. See <a href="/pod/IO::Compress::Gzip">IO::Compress::Gzip</a> and <a href="/pod/IO::Uncompress::Gunzip">IO::Uncompress::Gunzip</a> for more details.</p> <dl> <dt id="$gz-=-gzopen($filename,-$mode)"><a id="gz-gzopen-filename-mode"></a><b>$gz = gzopen($filename, $mode)</b></dt> <dd> </dd> <dt id="$gz-=-gzopen($filehandle,-$mode)"><a id="gz-gzopen-filehandle-mode"></a><b>$gz = gzopen($filehandle, $mode)</b></dt> <dd> <p>This function opens either the <i>gzip</i> file <code>$filename</code> for reading or writing or attaches to the opened filehandle, <code>$filehandle</code>. It returns an object on success and <code>undef</code> on failure.</p> <p>When writing a gzip file this interface will <i>always</i> create the smallest possible gzip header (exactly 10 bytes). If you want greater control over what gets stored in the gzip header (like the original filename or a comment) use <a href="/pod/IO::Compress::Gzip">IO::Compress::Gzip</a> instead. Similarly if you want to read the contents of the gzip header use <a href="/pod/IO::Uncompress::Gunzip">IO::Uncompress::Gunzip</a>.</p> <p>The second parameter, <code>$mode</code>, is used to specify whether the file is opened for reading or writing and to optionally specify a compression level and compression strategy when writing. The format of the <code>$mode</code> parameter is similar to the mode parameter to the 'C' function <code>fopen</code>, so "rb" is used to open for reading, "wb" for writing and "ab" for appending (writing at the end of the file).</p> <p>To specify a compression level when writing, append a digit between 0 and 9 to the mode string -- 0 means no compression and 9 means maximum compression. If no compression level is specified Z_DEFAULT_COMPRESSION is used.</p> <p>To specify the compression strategy when writing, append 'f' for filtered data, 'h' for Huffman only compression, or 'R' for run-length encoding. If no strategy is specified Z_DEFAULT_STRATEGY is used.</p> <p>So, for example, "wb9" means open for writing with the maximum compression using the default strategy and "wb4R" means open for writing with compression level 4 and run-length encoding.</p> <p>Refer to the <i>zlib</i> documentation for the exact format of the <code>$mode</code> parameter.</p> </dd> <dt id="$bytesread-=-$gz->gzread($buffer-[,-$size])-;"><a id="bytesread-gz-gzread-buffer-size"></a><b>$bytesread = $gz->gzread($buffer [, $size]) ;</b></dt> <dd> <p>Reads <code>$size</code> bytes from the compressed file into <code>$buffer</code>.

Other valid values for <code>$flush_type</code> are <code>Z_NO_FLUSH</code>, <code>Z_SYNC_FLUSH</code>, <code>Z_FULL_FLUSH</code> and <code>Z_BLOCK</code>. It is strongly recommended that you only set the <code>flush_type</code> parameter if you fully understand the implications of what it does - overuse of <code>flush</code> can seriously degrade the level of compression achieved.

Unlike <code>gzerror()</code> though, the error message will correspond to the <i>zlib</i> message when the error is associated with <i>zlib</i> itself, or the UNIX error message when it is not (i.e. <i>zlib</i> returned <code>Z_ERRORNO</code>).</p> <p>As there is an overlap between the error numbers used by <i>zlib</i> and UNIX, <code>$gzerrno</code> should only be used to check for the presence of <i>an</i> error in numeric context.
