Fast-lzma2 for xz?

Open andrews05 opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

Hi, would it be possible to add support for the fast-lzma2 method for xz files?

(Also, is there an easy way to disable some of the new formats when compiling? I just want to keep the binary as small as possible.)

Could you ask the author of flzma ? I would integrate it .... but I don't have the time for doing this.

@jinfeihan57 Appreciated, and I may end up using fxz (if I can get it to build on Mac), but I would much prefer to have the feature available in 7za if possible.

@conor42 Would you be willing to do this?

I can probably take a look on the weekend.

@conor42 - do you think this could happen in some time? I could also just close this issue - what do you think about this request?

@mcmilk I completely forgot about this. I'll look at what's required sometime in the next week.

Easy going :-)

I won't be doing this for the moment. Plugging the FLZMA2 encoder into the XZ container writer looks like it involves a lot of work.

@conor42 - no problem, I will close this issue ... with the result:

Fast-lzma fo xz? --> no
