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

%outStringThe 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 number (under construction)
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.
