LZ4 Windows binary package
|
||||
====================================
|
||||
|
||||
#### The package contents
|
||||
|
||||
- `lz4.exe` : Command Line Utility, supporting gzip-like arguments
|
||||
- `dll\liblz4.dll` : The DLL of LZ4 library
|
||||
- `dll\liblz4.lib` : The import library of LZ4 library for Visual C++
|
||||
- `example\` : The example of usage of LZ4 library
|
||||
- `include\` : Header files required with LZ4 library
|
||||
- `static\liblz4_static.lib` : The static LZ4 library
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
#### Usage of Command Line Interface
|
||||
|
||||
Command Line Interface (CLI) supports gzip-like arguments.
|
||||
By default CLI takes an input file and compresses it to an output file:
|
||||
```
|
||||
Usage: lz4 [arg] [input] [output]
|
||||
```
|
||||
The full list of commands for CLI can be obtained with `-h` or `-H`. The ratio can
|
||||
be improved with commands from `-3` to `-16` but higher levels also have slower
|
||||
compression. CLI includes in-memory compression benchmark module with compression
|
||||
levels starting from `-b` and ending with `-e` with iteration time of `-i` seconds.
|
||||
CLI supports aggregation of parameters i.e. `-b1`, `-e18`, and `-i1` can be joined
|
||||
into `-b1e18i1`.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
#### The example of usage of static and dynamic LZ4 libraries with gcc/MinGW
|
||||
|
||||
Use `cd example` and `make` to build `fullbench-dll` and `fullbench-lib`.
|
||||
`fullbench-dll` uses a dynamic LZ4 library from the `dll` directory.
|
||||
`fullbench-lib` uses a static LZ4 library from the `lib` directory.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
#### Using LZ4 DLL with gcc/MinGW
|
||||
|
||||
The header files from `include\` and the dynamic library `dll\liblz4.dll`
|
||||
are required to compile a project using gcc/MinGW.
|
||||
The dynamic library has to be added to linking options.
|
||||
It means that if a project that uses LZ4 consists of a single `test-dll.c`
|
||||
file it should be linked with `dll\liblz4.dll`. For example:
|
||||
```
|
||||
gcc $(CFLAGS) -Iinclude\ test-dll.c -o test-dll dll\liblz4.dll
|
||||
```
|
||||
The compiled executable will require LZ4 DLL which is available at `dll\liblz4.dll`.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
#### The example of usage of static and dynamic LZ4 libraries with Visual C++
|
||||
|
||||
Open `example\fullbench-dll.sln` to compile `fullbench-dll` that uses a
|
||||
dynamic LZ4 library from the `dll` directory. The solution works with Visual C++
|
||||
2010 or newer. When one will open the solution with Visual C++ newer than 2010
|
||||
then the solution will upgraded to the current version.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
#### Using LZ4 DLL with Visual C++
|
||||
|
||||
The header files from `include\` and the import library `dll\liblz4.lib`
|
||||
are required to compile a project using Visual C++.
|
||||
|
||||
1. The header files should be added to `Additional Include Directories` that can
|
||||
be found in project properties `C/C++` then `General`.
|
||||
2. The import library has to be added to `Additional Dependencies` that can
|
||||
be found in project properties `Linker` then `Input`.
|
||||
If one will provide only the name `liblz4.lib` without a full path to the library
|
||||
the directory has to be added to `Linker\General\Additional Library Directories`.
|
||||
|
||||
The compiled executable will require LZ4 DLL which is available at `dll\liblz4.dll`.
