Two development notes for the 7zip-24.08+2 build: 1. Runtime Considerations
The 7za.exe and 7zr.exe files in this package are statically linked with HX, which provides the win32 interfaces that are used throughout the upstream codebase. When 7-Zip is patched down to the win32c api level, then HX seems to work perfectly as an external loader, but cross-platform compatibility is poor when HX is made internal. Depending on the DOS version and/or some build vagaries, sometimes 7-Zip just won't start. The downstream source tree has a DOS/32A target that can currently decompress most things, but it needs new DOS-specific code before compression will work properly. I'm doing coverage tests on the HX and DOS/32A variants, but it isn't yet apparent which will be better. 2. Supported Formats The `7z i` command prints a list of 7-Zip capabilities. This 7za.exe build recognizes these containers and codecs...
