    UseUnsafeCompressionMethodVersions Property (ZipArchive)
    Gets or sets a System.Boolean value that indicates whether the currently selected compression and decompression methods can use "unsafe" techniques like pointers to increase speed.
    Syntax
    'Declaration
     
    Public Property UseUnsafeCompressionMethodVersions As Boolean
     
    'Usage
     
    Dim instance As ZipArchive
    Dim value As Boolean
     
    instance.UseUnsafeCompressionMethodVersions = value
     
    value = instance.UseUnsafeCompressionMethodVersions

    Property Value

    true if the currently selected compression and decompression methods can use unsafe techniques like pointers to increase speed. false otherwise.

    Tthe default value is false.

    Remarks

    This is currently an experimental feature. Speed increases cannot be guaranteed in all cases because of inefficiencies in the internal buffering system. Future versions of the component will increase performance in that area and introduce the usage of multiple processor cores to further improve performance.

    Currently, only the Deflated compression method is affected by this property. Future versions of the component will add more compression methods.

    Requirements

    Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
