MaskRay added a comment. Thanks for experimenting the refactoring. My gut feeling is that
- for inheritance `llvm/lib/Support/Compression.cpp` introduces quite a bit of complexity. - BestSpeedCompression/DefaultCompression/BestSizeCompression may be kinda weird. Not all algorithms may need all of three. - this new interface does not make parallel compression/decompression easier. I mentioned this on https://groups.google.com/g/generic-abi/c/satyPkuMisk/m/xRqMj8M3AwAJ > I know the paradox of choice:) Certainly that we should not add a plethora of > bzip2, xz, lzo, brotli, etc to generic-abi.

There is a possibility if a llvm-project use case needs an alternative (it needs very strong arguments not using zstd), it has the other approach that not using llvm/Support/Compression.h Repository: rG LLVM Github Monorepo CHANGES SINCE LAST ACTION https://reviews.llvm.org/D130516/new/ https://reviews.llvm.org/D130516 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org https://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
