Detailed Description

A class to compress/decompress QIODevice.

This class can be used to compress any data written to QIODevice or decompress it back. Compressing data sent over a QTcpSocket is a good example.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QuaZIODevice()

QuaZIODevice::QuaZIODevice ( QIODevice *  io,
QObject *  parent = nullptr 
)

Constructor.

Parameters
ioThe QIODevice to read/write.
parentThe parent object, as per QObject logic.

Member Function Documentation

◆ flush()

bool QuaZIODevice::flush ( )
virtual

Flushes data waiting to be written.

Unfortunately, as QIODevice doesn't support flush() by itself, the only thing this method does is write the compressed data into the device using Z_SYNC_FLUSH mode. If you need the compressed data to actually be flushed from the buffer of the underlying QIODevice, you need to call its flush() method as well, providing it supports it (like QTcpSocket does). Example:

QuaZIODevice dev(&sock);
dev.open(QIODevice::Write);
dev.write(yourDataGoesHere);
dev.flush();
sock->flush(); // this actually sends data to network
A class to compress/decompress QIODevice.
Definition: quaziodevice.h:41

This may change in the future versions of QuaZip by implementing an ugly hack: trying to cast the QIODevice using qobject_cast to known flush()-supporting subclasses, and calling flush if the resulting pointer is not zero.

◆ open()

bool QuaZIODevice::open ( QIODevice::OpenMode  mode)
virtual

Opens the device.

Parameters
modeNeither QIODevice::ReadWrite nor QIODevice::Append are not supported.

◆ close()

void QuaZIODevice::close ( )
virtual

Closes this device, but not the underlying one.

The underlying QIODevice is not closed in case you want to write something else to it.
