V. Bzip2 Compression Functions

The bzip2 functions are used to transparently read and write bzip2 (.bz2) compressed files.

Requirements

This module uses the functions of the bzip2 library by Julian Seward

Installation

Bzip2 support in PHP is not enabled by default. You will need to use the --with-bz2 configuration option when compiling PHP to enable bzip2 support. This module requires bzip2/libbzip2 version >= 1.0.x.

Resource types

This extension defines one resource type: a file pointer identifying the bz2-file to work on.

Predefined constants

Example

This example opens a temporary file and writes a test string to it, then prints out the contents of the file.

P°φklad 1. Small bzip2 Example

<?php

$filename = "/tmp/testfile.bz2";
$str = "This is a test string.\n";

// open file for writing
$bz = bzopen($filename, "w");

// write string to file
bzwrite($bz, $str);

// close file
bzclose($bz);

// open file for reading
$bz = bzopen($filename, "r");

// read 10 characters
print bzread($bz, 10);

// output until end of the file (or the next 1024 char) and close it.  
print bzread($bz);

bzclose($bz);

?>

Obsah
bzclose — Close a bzip2 file pointer

bzdecompress — Decompresses bzip2 encoded data
bzerrno — Returns a bzip2 error number
bzerror — Returns the bzip2 error number and error string in an array
bzerrstr — Returns a bzip2 error string
bzflush — Force a write of all buffered data
bzopen — Open a bzip2 compressed file
bzread — Binary safe bzip2 file read
bzwrite — Binary safe bzip2 file write
