broken. API has changed a lot and it will still change a
little more here and there. The command line tool doesn't
have all the required changes to reflect the API changes, so
it's easy to get "internal error" or trigger assertions.
specification. Simplify things by removing most of the
support for known uncompressed size in most places.
There are some miscellaneous changes here and there too.
The API of liblzma has got many changes and still some
more will be done soon. While most of the code has been
updated, some things are not fixed (the command line tool
will choke with invalid filter chain, if nothing else).
Subblock filter is somewhat broken for now. It will be
updated once the encoded format of the Subblock filter
has been decided.
of the so called simple filters. If there is demand, limited
support for LZMA_SYNC_FLUSH may be added in future.
After this commit, using LZMA_SYNC_FLUSH shouldn't cause
undefined behavior in any situation.
in ia64_coder_init(). It triggered assert() in
simple_coder.c, and could have caused a buffer overflow.
This error was probably a copypaste mistake, since most
of the simple filters use unfiltered_max = 4.
It's not strictly needed there, and just complicates the
code. LZ encoder never even had this feature.
The primary reason to have uncompressed size tracking in
filter encoders was validating that the application
doesn't give different amount of input that it had
promised. A side effect was to validate internal workings
of liblzma.
Uncompressed size tracking is still present in the Block
encoder. Maybe it should be added to LZMA_Alone and raw
encoders too. It's simpler to have one coder just to
validate the uncompressed size instead of having it
in every filter.
