Hi there I just have a simple question regarding the format of a zlib
archive. Somehow WinRar cannot read the archive. If I use the simple
example application provided in the zlib distribution WinRar is able
to read it. This makes me wondering what difference is in the archive
generated by boost::iostreams?
Here is my example code which works fine. I using VC7.1 and Boost 1.33
#include <iostream>
#define BOOST_IOSTREAMS_NO_LIB
#include
#include
#include
namespace io = boost::iostreams;
int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
{
io::filtering_ostream out;
out.push( io::zlib_compressor() );
out.push( io::file_sink( "hello.zip" ));
out << "Hello boost::iostreams";
//close the file
}
io::filtering_istream in;
in.push( io::zlib_decompressor() );
in.push( io::file_source( "hello.zip" ));
std::string strMessage;
std::getline( in, strMessage );
std::cout << strMessage << std::endl;
return 0;
}
Besides the problem, seems that boost::iostream is an amazing lib and
a huge contribution for the C++ community. Thanks,
Christian
