Compression Libraries For C++
c++, compression
Solution
Most compression libraries that I know of are written in C for two reasons: one, the general age of good compression algorithms; and two, the high portability (and stability) of C across platforms.
I suggest any of the following. If you want good licenses select one of the top two, otherwise if you're open to using GPL code pick one of the last two.
- Bzip2
- Zlib
- LZO
- UCL
Problem
I was reading about compression in programs and I started to create a new simple project, a zipper (just a zipper, not an unzipper), but I only found zLib, and it's for C. I know that C libraries can be used in C++, but I like to use C++ libraries. Does anyone know a good one to suggest? Best Regards.
