brotli

2017-08-11 petasis: I have created a small wrapper for the Brotli compression format: [L1 ]

The code uses critcl:

package require Tcl 8.4
package require critcl 3.1

critcl::buildrequirement {
  package require critcl::class
}
# critcl::config language c++

critcl::license {Georgios Petasis} {BSD licensed}
critcl::summary {Brotli (de)compressor objects for Tcl.}
critcl::description {
    This package implements brotli (de)compression objects
    for Tcl.
}
critcl::subject brotli

::critcl::clibraries -lbrotlidec -lbrotlienc

critcl::class::define ::brotli {
  # include vector
  include brotli/decode.h
  include brotli/encode.h

    instance->mode=(BrotliEncoderMode) BROTLI_DEFAULT_MODE;
  }

  insvariable int lgblock {} {instance->lgblock = -1;}
  insvariable int quality {} {instance->quality = BROTLI_DEFAULT_QUALITY;}

package provide brotli 1.0

You can generate the package by saving the code in a file named "brotli.tcl" and then execute:

  critcl -pkg brotli.tcl
