Namespace AvroSharp.Codecs

The codecs of the AvroSharp.Codecs package: SnappyCodec, ZstandardCodec, Bzip2Codec and XzCodec. Each is an AvroCodec; give one to a writer through AvroFileWriterOptions.Codec. AvroCodecs.All holds all four with their default settings. Given to AvroFileReaderOptions.Codecs, it lets a reader read every codec in the specification, with the built-in null and deflate codecs. The files themselves are read and written with AvroSharp.Containers.

Classes

AvroCodecs

The codecs of this package, for readers of files whose codec is not known in advance.

Bzip2Codec

The bzip2 codec: each block is one bzip2 stream.

SnappyCodec

The snappy codec: each block is Snappy-compressed and followed by the 4-byte big-endian CRC-32 of the uncompressed data, as the specification requires. The checksum is verified on read.

XzCodec

The xz codec: each block is one XZ stream (LZMA2), with a CRC-64 check as Java's xz codec writes it. Reading accepts every XZ check type.

ZstandardCodec

The zstandard codec: each block is one or more Zstandard frames. Reading accepts frames with or without a content checksum and with or without the decompressed size, as Java's streaming writer produces them.
