ZLIB Decompression - Client Side
I'll try to be clear and I'm sorry for my bad english. This is the question: In my web application i received a string that represent an image compressed with this algorithm, written in C#:
public static class Compression
{
public static string Compress(string text)
{
byte[] buffer = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(text);
MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();
using (GZipStream zip = new GZipStream(ms, CompressionMode.Compress, true))
{
zip.Write(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
}
ms.Position = 0;
MemoryStream outStream = new MemoryStream();
byte[] compressed = new byte[ms.Length];
ms.Read(compressed, 0, compressed.Length);
byte[] gzBuffer = new byte[compressed.Length + 4];
System.Buffer.BlockCopy(compressed, 0, gzBuffer, 4, compressed.Length);
System.Buffer.BlockCopy(BitConverter.GetBytes(buffer.Length), 0, gzBuffer, 0, 4);
return Convert.ToBase64String(gzBuffer);
}
public static string Decompress(string compressedText)
{
byte[] gzBuffer = Convert.FromBase64String(compressedText);
using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream())
{
int msgLength = BitConverter.ToInt32(gzBuffer, 0);
ms.Write(gzBuffer, 4, gzBuffer.Length - 4);
byte[] buffer = new byte[msgLength];
ms.Position = 0;
using (GZipStream zip = new GZipStream(ms, CompressionMode.Decompress))
{
zip.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
}
return Encoding.UTF8.GetString(buffer);
}
}
}
The Decompress method is used in the Server side application. I receive an xml file with the string that represent the image compressed with the Compress method and I want to be able to decompress the string I received in javascript within my web app. Is there a way to do that? Are there other solutions? Thank's to everyone!!
