'Usage
 
Dim buffer() As Byte

Dim value() As Byte

 

value = XceedCompressedStreamEx.Compress(buffer)

public new static byte[] Compress( 

   byte[] buffer

)

Parameters

buffer

The array of bytes to compress.

Return Value

The byte array will be compressed using the Xceed.Compression.CompressionMethod.Deflated compression method and the Xceed.Compression.CompressionLevel.Highest compression level.

If the data to compress is not a byte array, it will need to be converted into a byte array before it can be compressed. This can be done, in the case of a string, using the System.Text.Encoding.GetBytes(System.Char[]) method of the System.Text.Encoding class.

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
