Add File Access Functions

Open bryceredd opened this issue 9 years ago • 5 comments

zlib offers a set of file access functions: gzopen, gzread, gzwrite, and about 20 others. Essentially, these are convenience wrappers which compress, buffer, and interact with the filesystem.

Would love to see this in zstd.

Sure Bryce, it's a good point !

Indirectly relevant : in latest dev branch, @inikep added gz* access functions to zlib wrapper.

This thread is pretty old now. Is there still interest here @bryceredd?

I believe I can use it. I was moving a project from zlib to zstd and we didn't want to maintain zlib dependency

I would like to use this functionality (file access convenience functions for zstd files) for a large-scale project.
