Thanks, Daniel! > Compression with C++ DataFile > ----------------------------- > > Key: AVRO-1414 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1414 > Project: Avro > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: c++ > Reporter: Daniel Russel > Assignee: Daniel Russel > Fix For: 1.7.6 > > Attachments: AVRO-1414.patch, patch > > > There is no way to use compression with the C++ DataFileReader and C++ DataFileWriter, from what I can tell. Adding compression of the written blocks using boost streams is relatively straight forward and I can provide a patch if people are interested. > However, there are a couple caveats: > - the windows builds of boost don't currently include zlib support (required for compression) by default. You have to do extra work to get it. > - I don't know if doing it that way is compatible with other avro implementations -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
