The desktop format of PDB's is different to the format on Palm. It's
noted in the docs. So, it's very unlikely that DEFLATER compress a
desktop PDB, right? You should maybe ask the developer of DEFLATER how
he stores the record-information of the databases.

I'm using DEFLATER only in PALM, deflater compress whole .PDB and create a

in palm I compress/uncompress with DEFLATER utility without problems...
In windows I'am using ZLIB.DLL to compress the same .PDB and put a header in
compressed data using PAR to send this .pdb to PALM. (the .PDB in palm stay
with one record and this record have all compressed data) but I don't get
uncompress this data...

works fine...
But when I zlib a .PDB in Windows(and put header in .pdb using par) and
put this .PDB in PALM Os, deflater do not uncompress my deflated .PDB...
My question is???
- Data generated by zlib is platform independent???
- the version of zlib to uncompress a .PDB must be the same version of
that was compressed by zlib???
- if I compress in Windows I can use zlib 32-bits without problem??? or
I must to compress with zlib 16-bits because palm is 16 bits???
Thank very much

Areyou sure DEFLATER compress the whole PDB in desktop format? Or is it
not more likely (without having a look at DEFLATER) it just compress (or
compresses?) the record one by one?
