-----------------------------------
Summary: 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
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
