Gzip (String function)
Compress a longstring with GZIP (String class)
[Introduced in Sirius Mods 7.4]
Syntax
%outString = string:Gzip[( [FixedCode= boolean], [LazyMatch= boolean], - [MaxChain= number], [Filename= string], - [LastModified= number])]
Syntax terms
%outString | The result of the GZIP operation, compressing the method object string. |
---|---|
string | The string to be compressed by the GZIP operation. |
FixedCode | Boolean value ([under construction]]). |
LazyMatch | Boolean value ([under construction]]) |
MaxChain ([under construction]]) | number |
Filename | string ([under construction]]) |
LastModified | The date/time stamp to be stored as a component of %outString, expressed as the number of milliseconds since 12:00 AM, Jan 1, 1900. The default is the current date and time (that is, %(System):CurrentTimeMilliseconds).
After Gzip stores a value into %outString, the LastModified date/time stamp can be obtained with the GunzipDatetimeNS function, but note that its output is in seconds, not milliseconds. |
Usage notes
- The inverse of Gzip is Gunzip.
