static Compression |
GZIP
A Compression object representing GZip compression. |
static int |
MAGIC_SIZE
Number of bytes needed to determine compression type (magic number). |
static Compression |
NONE
A Compression object representing no compression (or perhaps an unknown one). |
Method Summary | |

abstract InputStream |
decompress(InputStream raw)
Returns a stream which is a decompressed version of the input stream, according to this objects compression type. |
static InputStream |
decompressStatic(InputStream raw)
Returns a decompressed version of the given input stream. |
static Compression |
getCompression(byte[] magic)
Returns a Compression object characterising the compression (if any) represented by a given magic number. |
String |
toString()
