module Netcompression

: sig

Registry for compression algorithms

This registry is initially empty. The [root:Netgzip] module can be used to register the gzip algorithm, just run

Netgzip.init()

to get this effect.

val register : iana_name:string -> ?encoder:(unit -> Netchannels.io_obj_channel) -> ?decoder:(unit -> Netchannels.io_obj_channel) -> unit -> unit

Registers a compression algorithm. The algorithm is given as a pair of functions returning Netchannels.io_obj_channel.

val lookup_encoder : iana_name:string -> unit -> Netchannels.io_obj_channel

Returns the encoder, or raises Not_found

val lookup_decoder : iana_name:string -> unit -> Netchannels.io_obj_channel

Returns the decoder, or raises Not_found

val all_encoders : unit -> string list

val all_decoders : unit -> string list

The iana names of all encoders and decoders, resp.
