    GZipCompressedStream Constructor(Stream,CompressionLevel)
    In This Topic
    Initializes a new instance of the GZipCompressedStream class specifying the inner stream to write to and read from as well as the compression level.
    Syntax
    'Declaration
     
    Public Function New( _
       ByVal inner As Stream, _
       ByVal level As CompressionLevel _
    )
    'Usage
     
    Dim inner As Stream
    Dim level As CompressionLevel
     
    Dim instance As New GZipCompressedStream(inner, level)
    public GZipCompressedStream( 
       Stream inner,
       CompressionLevel level
    )

    Parameters

    inner
    The stream to write to and read from.
    level
    A Xceed.Compression.CompressionLevel value representing the compression level to use.
    Remarks

    Because the GZip compression format only supports the Deflate compression method, all data compressed with the GZipCompressedStream class will be compressed using the Deflated compression method.

    If the inner stream is read-only, the compressed stream will read the header at construction.

    The compression level only applies to the Deflated and Deflated64 compression methods.  It does not apply to the BZip2, BWT, or PPMd 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
