Martin Panter added the comment: Here is a patch with the following changes:
* Clarified that wbits affects the container format as well as windows size * Undid some word wrapping to make the diff simpler * Added zero and 32 + n for decompression * Added full list of options under decompressobj(), and link decompress() to that. Otherwise we end up saying decompression generates a header, when it really parses the header. * Added tests for various wbits values * Compressing with window bits = 8 not actually supported (Zlib bumps it to 9: <https://github.com/madler/zlib/commit/8e34b3a#diff-8940271ef2146523af486ca4408361daR264>. The change log says “Force windowBits > 8 to avoid a bug in the encoder for a window size of 256 bytes”.) * Updated doc strings ---------- keywords: +patch versions: +Python 3.5, Python 3.6 -Python 3.2, Python 3.3 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file41187/zlib-wbits.v3.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5784> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
