Interface OutputCompressor

All Known Implementing Classes:

ZlibCompressor

public interface OutputCompressor

General interface for an operator that is able to produce an OutputStream that will output compressed data.

Method Summary

org.bouncycastle.asn1.x509.AlgorithmIdentifier	getAlgorithmIdentifier() Return the algorithm identifier describing the compression algorithm and parameters this compressor uses.
java.io.OutputStream	getOutputStream(java.io.OutputStream comOut) Wrap the passed in output stream comOut, returning an output stream that compresses anything passed in before sending on to comOut.

Method Detail

getAlgorithmIdentifier

public org.bouncycastle.asn1.x509.AlgorithmIdentifier getAlgorithmIdentifier()

Return the algorithm identifier describing the compression algorithm and parameters this compressor uses.

Returns:

algorithm oid and parameters.

getOutputStream

public java.io.OutputStream getOutputStream(java.io.OutputStream comOut)

Wrap the passed in output stream comOut, returning an output stream that compresses anything passed in before sending on to comOut.

Parameters:

comOut - output stream for compressed output.

Returns:

a compressing OutputStream
