VB6 compression library wrapper(s)
This project provides convenient VB6 wrappers for a variety of compression libraries, including...
- zLib -- https://github.com/madler/zlib
- zLib-ng -- https://github.com/Dead2/zlib-ng
- libdeflate -- https://github.com/ebiggers/libdeflate
- zstd -- https://github.com/facebook/zstd
- lz4 -- https://github.com/lz4/lz4
- brotli -- https://github.com/google/brotli
- ZipArchive (zero-dependency VB6 lib derived from PuTTY) -- https://github.com/wqweto/ZipArchive
- Microsoft Compression APIs (Win 8+ only) -- https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/cmpapi/-compression-portal
A small sample project allows you to compare compression time, decompression time, and compression ratio across all libraries. Drag+drop a file onto the text box to test it.
