============================================================================
miniLZO -- mini subset of the LZO real-time data compression library
============================================================================
Author : Markus Franz Xaver Johannes Oberhumer

Version : 2.02
Date : 17 Oct 2005
I've created miniLZO for projects where it is inconvenient to
include (or require) the full LZO source code just because you
want to add a little bit of data compression to your application.
miniLZO implements the LZO1X-1 compressor and both the standard and
safe LZO1X decompressor. Apart from fast compression it also useful
for situations where you want to use pre-compressed data files (which
must have been compressed with LZO1X-999).
miniLZO consists of one C source file and three header files:
minilzo.c
minilzo.h, lzoconf.h, lzodefs.h
To use miniLZO just copy these files into your source directory, add
minilzo.c to your Makefile and #include minilzo.h from your program.
Note: you also must distribute this file (`README.LZO') with your project.
minilzo.o compiles to about 6 kB (using gcc or Visual C on a i386), and
the sources are about 30 kB when packed with zip - so there's no more
excuse that your application doesn't support data compression :-)
For more information, documentation, example programs and other support
files (like Makefiles and build scripts) please download the full LZO
package from
http://www.oberhumer.com/opensource/lzo/
Have fun,
Markus
P.S. minilzo.c is generated automatically from the LZO sources and
therefore functionality is completely identical
Appendix A: building miniLZO
----------------------------
miniLZO is written such a way that it should compile and run
out-of-the-box on most machines.
If you are running on a very unusual architecture and lzo_init() fails then
you should first recompile with `-DLZO_DEBUG' to see what causes the failure.
The most probable case is something like `sizeof(char *) != sizeof(long)'.
After identifying the problem you can compile by adding some defines
like `-DSIZEOF_CHAR_P=8' to your Makefile.
The best solution is (of course) using Autoconf - if your project uses
Autoconf anyway just add `-DMINILZO_HAVE_CONFIG_H' to your compiler
flags when compiling minilzo.c. See the LZO distribution for an example
how to set up configure.in.
