Name

Inflater

Synopsis

This class implements the general ZLIB data-decompression algorithm used by gzip, PKZip, and other data-compression applications. It decompresses or inflates data compressed through the Deflater class. The important methods of this class are setInput( ), which specifies input data to be decompressed, and inflate( ), which decompresses the input data into an output buffer. A number of other methods exist so that this class can be used for stream-based decompression, as it is in the higher-level classes, such as GZIPInputStream and ZipInputStream. These stream-based classes are sufficient in most cases. Most applications do not need to use Inflater directly.
