Hi all. I'm trying to implement a structure which gzips multiple individually-inflatable messages in the same data stream. I've built an example implementation here: https://play.golang.org/p/hwdrVtI29t. While this works initially, eventually the gzip reader throws an "unexpected EOF" at me. I've tracked the problem down to L609 in compress/flate/inflate.go <https://golang.org/src/compress/flate/inflate.go#L609>; the value returned by f.dict.availWrite() reaches zero, causing the reader to transition from the nextBlock "state" to reading huffmanBlock, ending in an unexpected EOF. For what it's worth, I've also tested it with this <https://github.com/pierrec/lz4> LZ4 package which provides almost the same API as compress/gzip, and it works flawlessly.
Could someone provide some pointers here? Is this the result of my own limited understanding of gzip/DEFLATE's mechanics, or is this possible a flaw in compress/(flate|gzip)? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
