The data format used by the zlib library is described by RFCs (Request for Comments) 1950
to 1952 in the files ftp://ds.internic.net/rfc/rfc1950.txt (zlib format), rfc1951.txt (deflate
format) and rfc1952.txt (gzip format).
The 'zlib' compression library provides in-memory compression and decompression
functions, including integrity checks of the uncompressed data. This version of the library
supports only one compression method (deflation) but other algorithms will be added later
and will have the same stream interface.
Compression can be done in a single step if the buffers are large enough (for example if an
input file is mmap'ed), or can be done by repeated calls of the compression function. In the
latter case, the application must provide more input and/or consume the output (providing
more output space) before each call.
The library also supports reading and writing files in gzip (.gz) format with an interface
similar to that of stdio.
The library does not install any signal handler. The decoder checks the consistency of the
compressed data, so the library should never crash even in case of corrupted input.
