deflateSetDictionary Method (ZStream)

In This Topic

Initializes the compression dictionary from the given byte sequence without producing any compressed output.

Syntax

'Declaration
 
Public Function deflateSetDictionary( _
   ByVal dictionary() As Byte, _
   ByVal dictLength As Integer _
) As Integer

public int deflateSetDictionary( 
   byte[] dictionary,
   int dictLength
)

Zero on success, an error code on failure.

Remarks

This method must be called immediately after deflateInit(Int32), before any call to deflate.

The compressor and decompressor must use exactly the same dictionary (see inflateSetDictionary).
