| 1 | MiniZip64 - Copyright (c) 2009-2010 - Mathias Svensson - Built from MiniZip by Gilles Vollant | ||
| 2 | |||
| 3 | Introduction | ||
| 4 | --------------------- | ||
| 5 | MiniZip64 is built from MiniZip by Gilles Vollant ( http://www.winimage.com/zLibDll/minizip.html ) | ||
| 6 | |||
| 7 | When adding ZIP64 support into minizip it would result into breaking compatibility with current minizip. | ||
| 8 | And since breaking compatibility in minizip is not wanted. I decided to create a fork of minizip | ||
| 9 | and create minizip64. | ||
| 10 | |||
| 11 | Even though MiniZip64 is build from MiniZip, all functions and struct's have changed name so that it | ||
| 12 | would not collide with each other. | ||
| 13 | |||
| 14 | |||
| 15 | Background | ||
| 16 | --------------------- | ||
| 17 | When adding ZIP64 support I found that Even Rouault have added ZIP64 support for unzip.c into minizip | ||
| 18 | for a open source project called gdal ( http://www.gdal.org/ ) | ||
| 19 | |||
| 20 | That was used as a starting point. And after that ZIP64 support was added to zip.c | ||
| 21 | some refactoring and code cleanup was also done. | ||
| 22 | |||
| 23 | |||
| 24 | Changed from MiniZip to MiniZip64 | ||
| 25 | ------------------------------------- | ||
| 26 | * Filenames has got a '64' at the end of them . eg unzip.c is now called unzip64.c | ||
| 27 | * Added ZIP64 support for unzip ( by Even Rouault ) | ||
| 28 | * Added ZIP64 support for zip ( by Mathias Svensson ) | ||
| 29 | * Reverted some changed that Even Rouault did. | ||
| 30 | * Bunch of patches received from Gulles Vollant that he received for MiniZip from various users. | ||
| 31 | * Added unzip patch for BZIP Compression method (patch create by Daniel Borca) | ||
| 32 | * Added BZIP Compress method for zip | ||
| 33 | * Did some refactoring and code cleanup | ||
| 34 | |||
