1. Compression algorithm (deflate)
The deflation algorithm used by gzip (also zip and zlib) is a variation of
LZ77 (Lempel-Ziv 1977, see reference below). It finds duplicated strings in
the input data. The second occurrence of a string is replaced by a
pointer to the previous string, in the form of a pair (distance,
length). Distances are limited to 32K bytes, and lengths are limited
to 258 bytes. When a string does not occur anywhere in the previous
32K bytes, it is emitted as a sequence of literal bytes. (In this
description, `string' must be taken as an arbitrary sequence of bytes,
and is not restricted to printable characters.)
Literals or match lengths are compressed with one Huffman tree, and
match distances are compressed with another tree. The trees are stored
in a compact form at the start of each block. The blocks can have any
size (except that the compressed data for one block must fit in
available memory). A block is terminated when deflate() determines that
it would be useful to start another block with fresh trees. (This is
somewhat similar to the behavior of LZW-based _compress_.)
Duplicated strings are found using a hash table. All input strings of
length 3 are inserted in the hash table. A hash index is computed for
the next 3 bytes. If the hash chain for this index is not empty, all
strings in the chain are compared with the current input string, and
the longest match is selected.
The hash chains are searched starting with the most recent strings, to
favor small distances and thus take advantage of the Huffman encoding.
The hash chains are singly linked. There are no deletions from the
hash chains, the algorithm simply discards matches that are too old.
To avoid a worst-case situation, very long hash chains are arbitrarily
truncated at a certain length, determined by a runtime option (level
parameter of deflateInit). So deflate() does not always find the longest
possible match but generally finds a match which is long enough.
deflate() also defers the selection of matches with a lazy evaluation
mechanism. After a match of length N has been found, deflate() searches for
a longer match at the next input byte. If a longer match is found, the
previous match is truncated to a length of one (thus producing a single
literal byte) and the process of lazy evaluation begins again. Otherwise,
the original match is kept, and the next match search is attempted only N
steps later.
The lazy match evaluation is also subject to a runtime parameter. If
the current match is long enough, deflate() reduces the search for a longer
match, thus speeding up the whole process. If compression ratio is more
important than speed, deflate() attempts a complete second search even if
the first match is already long enough.
The lazy match evaluation is not performed for the fastest compression
modes (level parameter 1 to 3). For these fast modes, new strings
are inserted in the hash table only when no match was found, or
when the match is not too long. This degrades the compression ratio
but saves time since there are both fewer insertions and fewer searches.
2. Decompression algorithm (inflate)
2.1 Introduction
The key question is how to represent a Huffman code (or any prefix code) so
that you can decode fast. The most important characteristic is that shorter
codes are much more common than longer codes, so pay attention to decoding the
short codes fast, and let the long codes take longer to decode.
inflate() sets up a first level table that covers some number of bits of
input less than the length of longest code. It gets that many bits from the
stream, and looks it up in the table. The table will tell if the next
code is that many bits or less and how many, and if it is, it will tell
the value, else it will point to the next level table for which inflate()
grabs more bits and tries to decode a longer code.
How many bits to make the first lookup is a tradeoff between the time it
takes to decode and the time it takes to build the table. If building the
table took no time (and if you had infinite memory), then there would only
be a first level table to cover all the way to the longest code. However,
building the table ends up taking a lot longer for more bits since short
codes are replicated many times in such a table. What inflate() does is
simply to make the number of bits in the first table a variable, and then
to set that variable for the maximum speed.
For inflate, which has 286 possible codes for the literal/length tree, the size
of the first table is nine bits. Also the distance trees have 30 possible
values, and the size of the first table is six bits. Note that for each of
those cases, the table ended up one bit longer than the ``average'' code
length, i.e. the code length of an approximately flat code which would be a
little more than eight bits for 286 symbols and a little less than five bits
for 30 symbols.
2.2 More details on the inflate table lookup
Ok, you want to know what this cleverly obfuscated inflate tree actually
looks like. You are correct that it's not a Huffman tree. It is simply a
lookup table for the first, let's say, nine bits of a Huffman symbol. The
symbol could be as short as one bit or as long as 15 bits. If a particular
symbol is shorter than nine bits, then that symbol's translation is duplicated
in all those entries that start with that symbol's bits. For example, if the
symbol is four bits, then it's duplicated 32 times in a nine-bit table. If a
symbol is nine bits long, it appears in the table once.
If the symbol is longer than nine bits, then that entry in the table points
to another similar table for the remaining bits. Again, there are duplicated
entries as needed. The idea is that most of the time the symbol will be short
and there will only be one table look up. (That's whole idea behind data
compression in the first place.) For the less frequent long symbols, there
will be two lookups. If you had a compression method with really long
symbols, you could have as many levels of lookups as is efficient. For
inflate, two is enough.
So a table entry either points to another table (in which case nine bits in
the above example are gobbled), or it contains the translation for the symbol
and the number of bits to gobble. Then you start again with the next
ungobbled bit.
You may wonder: why not just have one lookup table for how ever many bits the
longest symbol is? The reason is that if you do that, you end up spending
more time filling in duplicate symbol entries than you do actually decoding.
At least for deflate's output that generates new trees every several 10's of
kbytes. You can imagine that filling in a 2^15 entry table for a 15-bit code
would take too long if you're only decoding several thousand symbols. At the
other extreme, you could make a new table for every bit in the code. In fact,
that's essentially a Huffman tree. But then you spend too much time
traversing the tree while decoding, even for short symbols.
So the number of bits for the first lookup table is a trade of the time to
fill out the table vs. the time spent looking at the second level and above of
the table.
Here is an example, scaled down:
The code being decoded, with 10 symbols, from 1 to 6 bits long:
A: 0
B: 10
C: 1100
D: 11010
E: 11011
F: 11100
G: 11101
H: 11110
I: 111110
J: 111111
Let's make the first table three bits long (eight entries):
000: A,1
001: A,1
010: A,1
011: A,1
100: B,2
101: B,2
110: -> table X (gobble 3 bits)
111: -> table Y (gobble 3 bits)
Each entry is what the bits decode as and how many bits that is, i.e. how
many bits to gobble. Or the entry points to another table, with the number of
bits to gobble implicit in the size of the table.
Table X is two bits long since the longest code starting with 110 is five bits
long:
00: C,1
01: C,1
10: D,2
11: E,2
Table Y is three bits long since the longest code starting with 111 is six
bits long:
000: F,2
001: F,2
010: G,2
011: G,2
100: H,2
101: H,2
110: I,3
111: J,3
So what we have here are three tables with a total of 20 entries that had to
be constructed. That's compared to 64 entries for a single table. Or
compared to 16 entries for a Huffman tree (six two entry tables and one four
entry table). Assuming that the code ideally represents the probability of
the symbols, it takes on the average 1.25 lookups per symbol. That's compared
to one lookup for the single table, or 1.66 lookups per symbol for the
Huffman tree.
There, I think that gives you a picture of what's going on. For inflate, the
meaning of a particular symbol is often more than just a letter. It can be a
byte (a "literal"), or it can be either a length or a distance which
indicates a base value and a number of bits to fetch after the code that is
added to the base value. Or it might be the special end-of-block code. The
data structures created in inftrees.c try to encode all that information
compactly in the tables.

Abstract
This specification defines a lossless compressed data format. The
data can be produced or consumed, even for an arbitrarily long
sequentially presented input data stream, using only an a priori
bounded amount of intermediate storage. The format presently uses
the DEFLATE compression method but can be easily extended to use
other compression methods. It can be implemented readily in a manner
not covered by patents. This specification also defines the ADLER-32
checksum (an extension and improvement of the Fletcher checksum),
used for detection of data corruption, and provides an algorithm for
computing it.

1. Introduction
1.1. Purpose
The purpose of this specification is to define a lossless
compressed data format that:
* Is independent of CPU type, operating system, file system,
and character set, and hence can be used for interchange;
* Can be produced or consumed, even for an arbitrarily long
sequentially presented input data stream, using only an a
priori bounded amount of intermediate storage, and hence can
be used in data communications or similar structures such as
Unix filters;
* Can use a number of different compression methods;
* Can be implemented readily in a manner not covered by
patents, and hence can be practiced freely.
The data format defined by this specification does not attempt to
allow random access to compressed data.
Deutsch & Gailly Informational [Page 2]
RFC 1950 ZLIB Compressed Data Format Specification May 1996
1.2. Intended audience
This specification is intended for use by implementors of software
to compress data into zlib format and/or decompress data from zlib
format.
The text of the specification assumes a basic background in
programming at the level of bits and other primitive data
representations.
1.3. Scope
The specification specifies a compressed data format that can be
used for in-memory compression of a sequence of arbitrary bytes.
1.4. Compliance
Unless otherwise indicated below, a compliant decompressor must be
able to accept and decompress any data set that conforms to all
the specifications presented here; a compliant compressor must
produce data sets that conform to all the specifications presented
here.
1.5. Definitions of terms and conventions used
byte: 8 bits stored or transmitted as a unit (same as an octet).
(For this specification, a byte is exactly 8 bits, even on
machines which store a character on a number of bits different
from 8.) See below, for the numbering of bits within a byte.
1.6. Changes from previous versions
Version 3.1 was the first public release of this specification.
In version 3.2, some terminology was changed and the Adler-32
sample code was rewritten for clarity. In version 3.3, the
support for a preset dictionary was introduced, and the
specification was converted to RFC style.
2. Detailed specification
2.1. Overall conventions
In the diagrams below, a box like this:
+---+
| | <-- the vertical bars might be missing
+---+
Deutsch & Gailly Informational [Page 3]
RFC 1950 ZLIB Compressed Data Format Specification May 1996
represents one byte; a box like this:
+==============+
| |
+==============+
represents a variable number of bytes.
Bytes stored within a computer do not have a "bit order", since
they are always treated as a unit. However, a byte considered as
an integer between 0 and 255 does have a most- and least-
significant bit, and since we write numbers with the most-
significant digit on the left, we also write bytes with the most-
significant bit on the left. In the diagrams below, we number the
bits of a byte so that bit 0 is the least-significant bit, i.e.,
the bits are numbered:
+--------+
|76543210|
+--------+
Within a computer, a number may occupy multiple bytes. All
multi-byte numbers in the format described here are stored with
the MOST-significant byte first (at the lower memory address).
For example, the decimal number 520 is stored as:
0 1
+--------+--------+
|00000010|00001000|
+--------+--------+
^ ^
| |
| + less significant byte = 8
+ more significant byte = 2 x 256
2.2. Data format
A zlib stream has the following structure:
0 1
+---+---+
|CMF|FLG| (more-->)
+---+---+
Deutsch & Gailly Informational [Page 4]
RFC 1950 ZLIB Compressed Data Format Specification May 1996
(if FLG.FDICT set)
0 1 2 3
+---+---+---+---+
| DICTID | (more-->)
+---+---+---+---+
+=====================+---+---+---+---+
|...compressed data...| ADLER32 |
+=====================+---+---+---+---+
Any data which may appear after ADLER32 are not part of the zlib
stream.
CMF (Compression Method and flags)
This byte is divided into a 4-bit compression method and a 4-
bit information field depending on the compression method.
bits 0 to 3 CM Compression method
bits 4 to 7 CINFO Compression info
CM (Compression method)
This identifies the compression method used in the file. CM = 8
denotes the "deflate" compression method with a window size up
to 32K. This is the method used by gzip and PNG (see
references [1] and [2] in Chapter 3, below, for the reference
documents). CM = 15 is reserved. It might be used in a future
version of this specification to indicate the presence of an
extra field before the compressed data.
CINFO (Compression info)
For CM = 8, CINFO is the base-2 logarithm of the LZ77 window
size, minus eight (CINFO=7 indicates a 32K window size). Values
of CINFO above 7 are not allowed in this version of the
specification. CINFO is not defined in this specification for
CM not equal to 8.
FLG (FLaGs)
This flag byte is divided as follows:
bits 0 to 4 FCHECK (check bits for CMF and FLG)
bit 5 FDICT (preset dictionary)
bits 6 to 7 FLEVEL (compression level)
The FCHECK value must be such that CMF and FLG, when viewed as
a 16-bit unsigned integer stored in MSB order (CMF*256 + FLG),
is a multiple of 31.
Deutsch & Gailly Informational [Page 5]
RFC 1950 ZLIB Compressed Data Format Specification May 1996
FDICT (Preset dictionary)
If FDICT is set, a DICT dictionary identifier is present
immediately after the FLG byte. The dictionary is a sequence of
bytes which are initially fed to the compressor without
producing any compressed output. DICT is the Adler-32 checksum
of this sequence of bytes (see the definition of ADLER32
below). The decompressor can use this identifier to determine
which dictionary has been used by the compressor.
FLEVEL (Compression level)
These flags are available for use by specific compression
methods. The "deflate" method (CM = 8) sets these flags as
follows:
0 - compressor used fastest algorithm
1 - compressor used fast algorithm
2 - compressor used default algorithm
3 - compressor used maximum compression, slowest algorithm
The information in FLEVEL is not needed for decompression; it
is there to indicate if recompression might be worthwhile.
compressed data
For compression method 8, the compressed data is stored in the
deflate compressed data format as described in the document
"DEFLATE Compressed Data Format Specification" by L. Peter
Deutsch. (See reference [3] in Chapter 3, below)
Other compressed data formats are not specified in this version
of the zlib specification.
ADLER32 (Adler-32 checksum)
This contains a checksum value of the uncompressed data
(excluding any dictionary data) computed according to Adler-32
algorithm. This algorithm is a 32-bit extension and improvement
of the Fletcher algorithm, used in the ITU-T X.224 / ISO 8073
standard. See references [4] and [5] in Chapter 3, below)
Adler-32 is composed of two sums accumulated per byte: s1 is
the sum of all bytes, s2 is the sum of all s1 values. Both sums
are done modulo 65521. s1 is initialized to 1, s2 to zero. The
Adler-32 checksum is stored as s2*65536 + s1 in most-
significant-byte first (network) order.
Deutsch & Gailly Informational [Page 6]
RFC 1950 ZLIB Compressed Data Format Specification May 1996
2.3. Compliance
A compliant compressor must produce streams with correct CMF, FLG
and ADLER32, but need not support preset dictionaries. When the
zlib data format is used as part of another standard data format,
the compressor may use only preset dictionaries that are specified
by this other data format. If this other format does not use the
preset dictionary feature, the compressor must not set the FDICT
flag.
A compliant decompressor must check CMF, FLG, and ADLER32, and
provide an error indication if any of these have incorrect values.
A compliant decompressor must give an error indication if CM is
not one of the values defined in this specification (only the
value 8 is permitted in this version), since another value could
indicate the presence of new features that would cause subsequent
data to be interpreted incorrectly. A compliant decompressor must
give an error indication if FDICT is set and DICTID is not the
identifier of a known preset dictionary. A decompressor may
ignore FLEVEL and still be compliant. When the zlib data format
is being used as a part of another standard format, a compliant
decompressor must support all the preset dictionaries specified by
the other format. When the other format does not use the preset
dictionary feature, a compliant decompressor must reject any
stream in which the FDICT flag is set.

8. Appendix: Rationale
8.1. Preset dictionaries
A preset dictionary is specially useful to compress short input
sequences. The compressor can take advantage of the dictionary
context to encode the input in a more compact manner. The
decompressor can be initialized with the appropriate context by
virtually decompressing a compressed version of the dictionary
without producing any output. However for certain compression
algorithms such as the deflate algorithm this operation can be
achieved without actually performing any decompression.
The compressor and the decompressor must use exactly the same
dictionary. The dictionary may be fixed or may be chosen among a
certain number of predefined dictionaries, according to the kind
of input data. The decompressor can determine which dictionary has
been chosen by the compressor by checking the dictionary
identifier. This document does not specify the contents of
predefined dictionaries, since the optimal dictionaries are
application specific. Standard data formats using this feature of
the zlib specification must precisely define the allowed
dictionaries.
8.2. The Adler-32 algorithm
The Adler-32 algorithm is much faster than the CRC32 algorithm yet
still provides an extremely low probability of undetected errors.
The modulo on unsigned long accumulators can be delayed for 5552
bytes, so the modulo operation time is negligible. If the bytes
are a, b, c, the second sum is 3a + 2b + c + 3, and so is position
and order sensitive, unlike the first sum, which is just a
checksum. That 65521 is prime is important to avoid a possible
large class of two-byte errors that leave the check unchanged.
(The Fletcher checksum uses 255, which is not prime and which also
makes the Fletcher check insensitive to single byte changes 0 <->
255.)
The sum s1 is initialized to 1 instead of zero to make the length
of the sequence part of s2, so that the length does not have to be
checked separately. (Any sequence of zeroes has a Fletcher
checksum of zero.)
Deutsch & Gailly Informational [Page 9]
RFC 1950 ZLIB Compressed Data Format Specification May 1996
9. Appendix: Sample code
The following C code computes the Adler-32 checksum of a data buffer.
It is written for clarity, not for speed. The sample code is in the
ANSI C programming language. Non C users may find it easier to read
with these hints:
& Bitwise AND operator.
>> Bitwise right shift operator. When applied to an
unsigned quantity, as here, right shift inserts zero bit(s)
at the left.
<< Bitwise left shift operator. Left shift inserts zero
bit(s) at the right.
++ "n++" increments the variable n.
% modulo operator: a % b is the remainder of a divided by b.
#define BASE 65521 /* largest prime smaller than 65536 */
/*
Update a running Adler-32 checksum with the bytes buf[0..len-1]
and return the updated checksum. The Adler-32 checksum should be
initialized to 1.
Usage example:
unsigned long adler = 1L;
while (read_buffer(buffer, length) != EOF) {
adler = update_adler32(adler, buffer, length);
}
if (adler != original_adler) error();
*/
unsigned long update_adler32(unsigned long adler,
unsigned char *buf, int len)
{
unsigned long s1 = adler & 0xffff;
unsigned long s2 = (adler >> 16) & 0xffff;
int n;
for (n = 0; n < len; n++) {
s1 = (s1 + buf[n]) % BASE;
s2 = (s2 + s1) % BASE;
}
return (s2 << 16) + s1;
}
/* Return the adler32 of the bytes buf[0..len-1] */

Abstract
This specification defines a lossless compressed data format that
compresses data using a combination of the LZ77 algorithm and Huffman
coding, with efficiency comparable to the best currently available
general-purpose compression methods. The data can be produced or
consumed, even for an arbitrarily long sequentially presented input
data stream, using only an a priori bounded amount of intermediate
storage. The format can be implemented readily in a manner not
covered by patents.

1. Introduction
1.1. Purpose
The purpose of this specification is to define a lossless
compressed data format that:
* Is independent of CPU type, operating system, file system,
and character set, and hence can be used for interchange;
* Can be produced or consumed, even for an arbitrarily long
sequentially presented input data stream, using only an a
priori bounded amount of intermediate storage, and hence
can be used in data communications or similar structures
such as Unix filters;
* Compresses data with efficiency comparable to the best
currently available general-purpose compression methods,
and in particular considerably better than the "compress"
program;
* Can be implemented readily in a manner not covered by
patents, and hence can be practiced freely;
Deutsch Informational [Page 2]
RFC 1951 DEFLATE Compressed Data Format Specification May 1996
* Is compatible with the file format produced by the current
widely used gzip utility, in that conforming decompressors
will be able to read data produced by the existing gzip
compressor.
The data format defined by this specification does not attempt to:
* Allow random access to compressed data;
* Compress specialized data (e.g., raster graphics) as well
as the best currently available specialized algorithms.
A simple counting argument shows that no lossless compression
algorithm can compress every possible input data set. For the
format defined here, the worst case expansion is 5 bytes per 32K-
byte block, i.e., a size increase of 0.015% for large data sets.
English text usually compresses by a factor of 2.5 to 3;
executable files usually compress somewhat less; graphical data
such as raster images may compress much more.
1.2. Intended audience
This specification is intended for use by implementors of software
to compress data into "deflate" format and/or decompress data from
"deflate" format.
The text of the specification assumes a basic background in
programming at the level of bits and other primitive data
representations. Familiarity with the technique of Huffman coding
is helpful but not required.
1.3. Scope
The specification specifies a method for representing a sequence
of bytes as a (usually shorter) sequence of bits, and a method for
packing the latter bit sequence into bytes.
1.4. Compliance
Unless otherwise indicated below, a compliant decompressor must be
able to accept and decompress any data set that conforms to all
the specifications presented here; a compliant compressor must
produce data sets that conform to all the specifications presented
here.
1.5. Definitions of terms and conventions used
Byte: 8 bits stored or transmitted as a unit (same as an octet).
For this specification, a byte is exactly 8 bits, even on machines
Deutsch Informational [Page 3]
RFC 1951 DEFLATE Compressed Data Format Specification May 1996
which store a character on a number of bits different from eight.
See below, for the numbering of bits within a byte.
String: a sequence of arbitrary bytes.
1.6. Changes from previous versions
There have been no technical changes to the deflate format since
version 1.1 of this specification. In version 1.2, some
terminology was changed. Version 1.3 is a conversion of the
specification to RFC style.
2. Compressed representation overview
A compressed data set consists of a series of blocks, corresponding
to successive blocks of input data. The block sizes are arbitrary,
except that non-compressible blocks are limited to 65,535 bytes.
Each block is compressed using a combination of the LZ77 algorithm
and Huffman coding. The Huffman trees for each block are independent
of those for previous or subsequent blocks; the LZ77 algorithm may
use a reference to a duplicated string occurring in a previous block,
up to 32K input bytes before.
Each block consists of two parts: a pair of Huffman code trees that
describe the representation of the compressed data part, and a
compressed data part. (The Huffman trees themselves are compressed
using Huffman encoding.) The compressed data consists of a series of
elements of two types: literal bytes (of strings that have not been
detected as duplicated within the previous 32K input bytes), and
pointers to duplicated strings, where a pointer is represented as a
pair <length, backward distance>. The representation used in the
"deflate" format limits distances to 32K bytes and lengths to 258
bytes, but does not limit the size of a block, except for
uncompressible blocks, which are limited as noted above.
Each type of value (literals, distances, and lengths) in the
compressed data is represented using a Huffman code, using one code
tree for literals and lengths and a separate code tree for distances.
The code trees for each block appear in a compact form just before
the compressed data for that block.

3. Detailed specification
3.1. Overall conventions In the diagrams below, a box like this:
+---+
| | <-- the vertical bars might be missing
+---+
represents one byte; a box like this:
+==============+
| |
+==============+
represents a variable number of bytes.
Bytes stored within a computer do not have a "bit order", since
they are always treated as a unit. However, a byte considered as
an integer between 0 and 255 does have a most- and least-
significant bit, and since we write numbers with the most-
significant digit on the left, we also write bytes with the most-
significant bit on the left. In the diagrams below, we number the
bits of a byte so that bit 0 is the least-significant bit, i.e.,
the bits are numbered:
+--------+
|76543210|
+--------+
Within a computer, a number may occupy multiple bytes. All
multi-byte numbers in the format described here are stored with
the least-significant byte first (at the lower memory address).
For example, the decimal number 520 is stored as:
0 1
+--------+--------+
|00001000|00000010|
+--------+--------+
^ ^
| |
| + more significant byte = 2 x 256
+ less significant byte = 8
3.1.1. Packing into bytes
This document does not address the issue of the order in which
bits of a byte are transmitted on a bit-sequential medium,
since the final data format described here is byte- rather than
Deutsch Informational [Page 5]
RFC 1951 DEFLATE Compressed Data Format Specification May 1996
bit-oriented. However, we describe the compressed block format
in below, as a sequence of data elements of various bit
lengths, not a sequence of bytes. We must therefore specify
how to pack these data elements into bytes to form the final
compressed byte sequence:
* Data elements are packed into bytes in order of
increasing bit number within the byte, i.e., starting
with the least-significant bit of the byte.
* Data elements other than Huffman codes are packed
starting with the least-significant bit of the data
element.
* Huffman codes are packed starting with the most-
significant bit of the code.
In other words, if one were to print out the compressed data as
a sequence of bytes, starting with the first byte at the
*right* margin and proceeding to the *left*, with the most-
significant bit of each byte on the left as usual, one would be
able to parse the result from right to left, with fixed-width
elements in the correct MSB-to-LSB order and Huffman codes in
bit-reversed order (i.e., with the first bit of the code in the
relative LSB position).
3.2. Compressed block format
3.2.1. Synopsis of prefix and Huffman coding
Prefix coding represents symbols from an a priori known
alphabet by bit sequences (codes), one code for each symbol, in
a manner such that different symbols may be represented by bit
sequences of different lengths, but a parser can always parse
an encoded string unambiguously symbol-by-symbol.
We define a prefix code in terms of a binary tree in which the
two edges descending from each non-leaf node are labeled 0 and
1 and in which the leaf nodes correspond one-for-one with (are
labeled with) the symbols of the alphabet; then the code for a
symbol is the sequence of 0's and 1's on the edges leading from
the root to the leaf labeled with that symbol. For example:
Deutsch Informational [Page 6]
RFC 1951 DEFLATE Compressed Data Format Specification May 1996
/\ Symbol Code
0 1 ------ ----
/ \ A 00
/\ B B 1
0 1 C 011
/ \ D 010
A /\
0 1
/ \
D C
A parser can decode the next symbol from an encoded input
stream by walking down the tree from the root, at each step
choosing the edge corresponding to the next input bit.
Given an alphabet with known symbol frequencies, the Huffman
algorithm allows the construction of an optimal prefix code
(one which represents strings with those symbol frequencies
using the fewest bits of any possible prefix codes for that
alphabet). Such a code is called a Huffman code. (See
reference [1] in Chapter 5, references for additional
information on Huffman codes.)
Note that in the "deflate" format, the Huffman codes for the
various alphabets must not exceed certain maximum code lengths.
This constraint complicates the algorithm for computing code
lengths from symbol frequencies. Again, see Chapter 5,
references for details.
3.2.2. Use of Huffman coding in the "deflate" format
The Huffman codes used for each alphabet in the "deflate"
format have two additional rules:
* All codes of a given bit length have lexicographically
consecutive values, in the same order as the symbols
they represent;
* Shorter codes lexicographically precede longer codes.
Deutsch Informational [Page 7]
RFC 1951 DEFLATE Compressed Data Format Specification May 1996
We could recode the example above to follow this rule as
follows, assuming that the order of the alphabet is ABCD:
Symbol Code
------ ----
A 10
B 0
C 110
D 111
I.e., 0 precedes 10 which precedes 11x, and 110 and 111 are
lexicographically consecutive.
Given this rule, we can define the Huffman code for an alphabet
just by giving the bit lengths of the codes for each symbol of
the alphabet in order; this is sufficient to determine the
actual codes. In our example, the code is completely defined
by the sequence of bit lengths (2, 1, 3, 3). The following
algorithm generates the codes as integers, intended to be read
from most- to least-significant bit. The code lengths are
initially in tree[I].Len; the codes are produced in
tree[I].Code.
1) Count the number of codes for each code length. Let
bl_count[N] be the number of codes of length N, N >= 1.
2) Find the numerical value of the smallest code for each
code length:
code = 0;
bl_count[0] = 0;
for (bits = 1; bits <= MAX_BITS; bits++) {
code = (code + bl_count[bits-1]) << 1;
next_code[bits] = code;
}
3) Assign numerical values to all codes, using consecutive
values for all codes of the same length with the base
values determined at step 2. Codes that are never used
(which have a bit length of zero) must not be assigned a
value.
for (n = 0; n <= max_code; n++) {
len = tree[n].Len;
if (len != 0) {
tree[n].Code = next_code[len];
next_code[len]++;
}
Deutsch Informational [Page 8]
RFC 1951 DEFLATE Compressed Data Format Specification May 1996
}
Example:
Consider the alphabet ABCDEFGH, with bit lengths (3, 3, 3, 3,
3, 2, 4, 4). After step 1, we have:
N bl_count[N]
- -----------
2 1
3 5
4 2
Step 2 computes the following next_code values:
N next_code[N]
- ------------
1 0
2 0
3 2
4 14
Step 3 produces the following code values:
Symbol Length Code
------ ------ ----
A 3 010
B 3 011
C 3 100
D 3 101
E 3 110
F 2 00
G 4 1110
H 4 1111
3.2.3. Details of block format
Each block of compressed data begins with 3 header bits
containing the following data:
first bit BFINAL
next 2 bits BTYPE
Note that the header bits do not necessarily begin on a byte
boundary, since a block does not necessarily occupy an integral
number of bytes.
Deutsch Informational [Page 9]
RFC 1951 DEFLATE Compressed Data Format Specification May 1996
BFINAL is set if and only if this is the last block of the data
set.
BTYPE specifies how the data are compressed, as follows:
00 - no compression
01 - compressed with fixed Huffman codes
10 - compressed with dynamic Huffman codes
11 - reserved (error)
The only difference between the two compressed cases is how the
Huffman codes for the literal/length and distance alphabets are
defined.
In all cases, the decoding algorithm for the actual data is as
follows:
do
read block header from input stream.
if stored with no compression
skip any remaining bits in current partially
processed byte
read LEN and NLEN (see next section)
copy LEN bytes of data to output
otherwise
if compressed with dynamic Huffman codes
read representation of code trees (see
subsection below)
loop (until end of block code recognized)
decode literal/length value from input stream
if value < 256
copy value (literal byte) to output stream
otherwise
if value = end of block (256)
break from loop
otherwise (value = 257..285)
decode distance from input stream
move backwards distance bytes in the output
stream, and copy length bytes from this
position to the output stream.
end loop
while not last block
Note that a duplicated string reference may refer to a string
in a previous block; i.e., the backward distance may cross one
or more block boundaries. However a distance cannot refer past
the beginning of the output stream. (An application using a
Deutsch Informational [Page 10]
RFC 1951 DEFLATE Compressed Data Format Specification May 1996
preset dictionary might discard part of the output stream; a
distance can refer to that part of the output stream anyway)
Note also that the referenced string may overlap the current
position; for example, if the last 2 bytes decoded have values
X and Y, a string reference with <length = 5, distance = 2>
adds X,Y,X,Y,X to the output stream.
We now specify each compression method in turn.
3.2.4. Non-compressed blocks (BTYPE=00)
Any bits of input up to the next byte boundary are ignored.
The rest of the block consists of the following information:
0 1 2 3 4...
+---+---+---+---+================================+
| LEN | NLEN |... LEN bytes of literal data...|
+---+---+---+---+================================+
LEN is the number of data bytes in the block. NLEN is the
one's complement of LEN.
3.2.5. Compressed blocks (length and distance codes)
As noted above, encoded data blocks in the "deflate" format
consist of sequences of symbols drawn from three conceptually
distinct alphabets: either literal bytes, from the alphabet of
byte values (0..255), or <length, backward distance> pairs,
where the length is drawn from (3..258) and the distance is
drawn from (1..32,768). In fact, the literal and length
alphabets are merged into a single alphabet (0..285), where
values 0..255 represent literal bytes, the value 256 indicates
end-of-block, and values 257..285 represent length codes
(possibly in conjunction with extra bits following the symbol
code) as follows:
Deutsch Informational [Page 11]
RFC 1951 DEFLATE Compressed Data Format Specification May 1996
Extra Extra Extra
Code Bits Length(s) Code Bits Lengths Code Bits Length(s)
---- ---- ------ ---- ---- ------- ---- ---- -------

265 1 11,12 275 3 51-58 285 0 258
266 1 13,14 276 3 59-66
The extra bits should be interpreted as a machine integer
stored with the most-significant bit first, e.g., bits 1110
represent the value 14.

3.2.6. Compression with fixed Huffman codes (BTYPE=01)
The Huffman codes for the two alphabets are fixed, and are not
represented explicitly in the data. The Huffman code lengths
for the literal/length alphabet are:
Lit Value Bits Codes
--------- ---- -----
0 - 143 8 00110000 through
10111111
144 - 255 9 110010000 through
111111111
256 - 279 7 0000000 through
0010111
280 - 287 8 11000000 through
11000111
Deutsch Informational [Page 12]
RFC 1951 DEFLATE Compressed Data Format Specification May 1996
The code lengths are sufficient to generate the actual codes,
as described above; we show the codes in the table for added
clarity. Literal/length values 286-287 will never actually
occur in the compressed data, but participate in the code
construction.
Distance codes 0-31 are represented by (fixed-length) 5-bit
codes, with possible additional bits as shown in the table
shown in Paragraph 3.2.5, above. Note that distance codes 30-
31 will never actually occur in the compressed data.
3.2.7. Compression with dynamic Huffman codes (BTYPE=10)
The Huffman codes for the two alphabets appear in the block
immediately after the header bits and before the actual
compressed data, first the literal/length code and then the
distance code. Each code is defined by a sequence of code
lengths, as discussed in Paragraph 3.2.2, above. For even
greater compactness, the code length sequences themselves are
compressed using a Huffman code. The alphabet for code lengths
is as follows:
0 - 15: Represent code lengths of 0 - 15
16: Copy the previous code length 3 - 6 times.
The next 2 bits indicate repeat length
(0 = 3, ... , 3 = 6)
Example: Codes 8, 16 (+2 bits 11),
16 (+2 bits 10) will expand to
12 code lengths of 8 (1 + 6 + 5)
17: Repeat a code length of 0 for 3 - 10 times.
(3 bits of length)
18: Repeat a code length of 0 for 11 - 138 times
(7 bits of length)
A code length of 0 indicates that the corresponding symbol in
the literal/length or distance alphabet will not occur in the
block, and should not participate in the Huffman code
construction algorithm given earlier. If only one distance
code is used, it is encoded using one bit, not zero bits; in
this case there is a single code length of one, with one unused
code. One distance code of zero bits means that there are no
distance codes used at all (the data is all literals).
We can now define the format of the block:
5 Bits: HLIT, # of Literal/Length codes - 257 (257 - 286)
5 Bits: HDIST, # of Distance codes - 1 (1 - 32)
4 Bits: HCLEN, # of Code Length codes - 4 (4 - 19)
Deutsch Informational [Page 13]
RFC 1951 DEFLATE Compressed Data Format Specification May 1996
(HCLEN + 4) x 3 bits: code lengths for the code length
alphabet given just above, in the order: 16, 17, 18,
0, 8, 7, 9, 6, 10, 5, 11, 4, 12, 3, 13, 2, 14, 1, 15
These code lengths are interpreted as 3-bit integers
(0-7); as above, a code length of 0 means the
corresponding symbol (literal/length or distance code
length) is not used.
HLIT + 257 code lengths for the literal/length alphabet,
encoded using the code length Huffman code
HDIST + 1 code lengths for the distance alphabet,
encoded using the code length Huffman code
The actual compressed data of the block,
encoded using the literal/length and distance Huffman
codes
The literal/length symbol 256 (end of data),
encoded using the literal/length Huffman code
The code length repeat codes can cross from HLIT + 257 to the
HDIST + 1 code lengths. In other words, all code lengths form
a single sequence of HLIT + HDIST + 258 values.
3.3. Compliance
A compressor may limit further the ranges of values specified in
the previous section and still be compliant; for example, it may
limit the range of backward pointers to some value smaller than
32K. Similarly, a compressor may limit the size of blocks so that
a compressible block fits in memory.
A compliant decompressor must accept the full range of possible
values defined in the previous section, and must accept blocks of
arbitrary size.
4. Compression algorithm details
While it is the intent of this document to define the "deflate"
compressed data format without reference to any particular
compression algorithm, the format is related to the compressed
formats produced by LZ77 (Lempel-Ziv 1977, see reference [2] below);
since many variations of LZ77 are patented, it is strongly
recommended that the implementor of a compressor follow the general
algorithm presented here, which is known not to be patented per se.
The material in this section is not part of the definition of the
Deutsch Informational [Page 14]
RFC 1951 DEFLATE Compressed Data Format Specification May 1996
specification per se, and a compressor need not follow it in order to
be compliant.
The compressor terminates a block when it determines that starting a
new block with fresh trees would be useful, or when the block size
fills up the compressor's block buffer.
The compressor uses a chained hash table to find duplicated strings,
using a hash function that operates on 3-byte sequences. At any
given point during compression, let XYZ be the next 3 input bytes to
be examined (not necessarily all different, of course). First, the
compressor examines the hash chain for XYZ. If the chain is empty,
the compressor simply writes out X as a literal byte and advances one
byte in the input. If the hash chain is not empty, indicating that
the sequence XYZ (or, if we are unlucky, some other 3 bytes with the
same hash function value) has occurred recently, the compressor
compares all strings on the XYZ hash chain with the actual input data
sequence starting at the current point, and selects the longest
match.
The compressor searches the hash chains starting with the most recent
strings, to favor small distances and thus take advantage of the
Huffman encoding. The hash chains are singly linked. There are no
deletions from the hash chains; the algorithm simply discards matches
that are too old. To avoid a worst-case situation, very long hash
chains are arbitrarily truncated at a certain length, determined by a
run-time parameter.
To improve overall compression, the compressor optionally defers the
selection of matches ("lazy matching"): after a match of length N has
been found, the compressor searches for a longer match starting at
the next input byte. If it finds a longer match, it truncates the
previous match to a length of one (thus producing a single literal
byte) and then emits the longer match. Otherwise, it emits the
original match, and, as described above, advances N bytes before
continuing.
Run-time parameters also control this "lazy match" procedure. If
compression ratio is most important, the compressor attempts a
complete second search regardless of the length of the first match.
In the normal case, if the current match is "long enough", the
compressor reduces the search for a longer match, thus speeding up
the process. If speed is most important, the compressor inserts new
strings in the hash table only when no match was found, or when the
match is not "too long". This degrades the compression ratio but
saves time since there are both fewer insertions and fewer searches.

6. Security Considerations
Any data compression method involves the reduction of redundancy in
the data. Consequently, any corruption of the data is likely to have
severe effects and be difficult to correct. Uncompressed text, on
the other hand, will probably still be readable despite the presence
of some corrupted bytes.
It is recommended that systems using this data format provide some
means of validating the integrity of the compressed data. See
reference [3], for example.

Abstract
This specification defines a lossless compressed data format that is
compatible with the widely used GZIP utility. The format includes a
cyclic redundancy check value for detecting data corruption. The
format presently uses the DEFLATE method of compression but can be
easily extended to use other compression methods. The format can be
implemented readily in a manner not covered by patents.

1. Introduction
1.1. Purpose
The purpose of this specification is to define a lossless
compressed data format that:
* Is independent of CPU type, operating system, file system,
and character set, and hence can be used for interchange;
* Can compress or decompress a data stream (as opposed to a
randomly accessible file) to produce another data stream,
using only an a priori bounded amount of intermediate
storage, and hence can be used in data communications or
similar structures such as Unix filters;
* Compresses data with efficiency comparable to the best
currently available general-purpose compression methods,
and in particular considerably better than the "compress"
program;
* Can be implemented readily in a manner not covered by
patents, and hence can be practiced freely;
* Is compatible with the file format produced by the current
widely used gzip utility, in that conforming decompressors
will be able to read data produced by the existing gzip
compressor.
Deutsch Informational [Page 2]
RFC 1952 GZIP File Format Specification May 1996
The data format defined by this specification does not attempt to:
* Provide random access to compressed data;
* Compress specialized data (e.g., raster graphics) as well as
the best currently available specialized algorithms.
1.2. Intended audience
This specification is intended for use by implementors of software
to compress data into gzip format and/or decompress data from gzip
format.
The text of the specification assumes a basic background in
programming at the level of bits and other primitive data
representations.
1.3. Scope
The specification specifies a compression method and a file format
(the latter assuming only that a file can store a sequence of
arbitrary bytes). It does not specify any particular interface to
a file system or anything about character sets or encodings
(except for file names and comments, which are optional).
1.4. Compliance
Unless otherwise indicated below, a compliant decompressor must be
able to accept and decompress any file that conforms to all the
specifications presented here; a compliant compressor must produce
files that conform to all the specifications presented here. The
material in the appendices is not part of the specification per se
and is not relevant to compliance.
1.5. Definitions of terms and conventions used
byte: 8 bits stored or transmitted as a unit (same as an octet).
(For this specification, a byte is exactly 8 bits, even on
machines which store a character on a number of bits different
from 8.) See below for the numbering of bits within a byte.
1.6. Changes from previous versions
There have been no technical changes to the gzip format since
version 4.1 of this specification. In version 4.2, some
terminology was changed, and the sample CRC code was rewritten for
clarity and to eliminate the requirement for the caller to do pre-
and post-conditioning. Version 4.3 is a conversion of the
specification to RFC style.

2. Detailed specification
2.1. Overall conventions
In the diagrams below, a box like this:
+---+
| | <-- the vertical bars might be missing
+---+
represents one byte; a box like this:
+==============+
| |
+==============+
represents a variable number of bytes.
Bytes stored within a computer do not have a "bit order", since
they are always treated as a unit. However, a byte considered as
an integer between 0 and 255 does have a most- and least-
significant bit, and since we write numbers with the most-
significant digit on the left, we also write bytes with the most-
significant bit on the left. In the diagrams below, we number the
bits of a byte so that bit 0 is the least-significant bit, i.e.,
the bits are numbered:
+--------+
|76543210|
+--------+
This document does not address the issue of the order in which
bits of a byte are transmitted on a bit-sequential medium, since
the data format described here is byte- rather than bit-oriented.
Within a computer, a number may occupy multiple bytes. All
multi-byte numbers in the format described here are stored with
the least-significant byte first (at the lower memory address).
For example, the decimal number 520 is stored as:
0 1
+--------+--------+
|00001000|00000010|
+--------+--------+
^ ^
| |
| + more significant byte = 2 x 256
+ less significant byte = 8
Deutsch Informational [Page 4]
RFC 1952 GZIP File Format Specification May 1996
2.2. File format
A gzip file consists of a series of "members" (compressed data
sets). The format of each member is specified in the following
section. The members simply appear one after another in the file,
with no additional information before, between, or after them.
2.3. Member format
Each member has the following structure:
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
|ID1|ID2|CM |FLG| MTIME |XFL|OS | (more-->)
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
(if FLG.FEXTRA set)
+---+---+=================================+
| XLEN |...XLEN bytes of "extra field"...| (more-->)
+---+---+=================================+
(if FLG.FNAME set)
+=========================================+
|...original file name, zero-terminated...| (more-->)
+=========================================+
(if FLG.FCOMMENT set)
+===================================+
|...file comment, zero-terminated...| (more-->)
+===================================+
(if FLG.FHCRC set)
+---+---+
| CRC16 |
+---+---+
+=======================+
|...compressed blocks...| (more-->)
+=======================+
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
| CRC32 | ISIZE |
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
Deutsch Informational [Page 5]
RFC 1952 GZIP File Format Specification May 1996
2.3.1. Member header and trailer
ID1 (IDentification 1)
ID2 (IDentification 2)
These have the fixed values ID1 = 31 (0x1f, \037), ID2 = 139
(0x8b, \213), to identify the file as being in gzip format.
CM (Compression Method)
This identifies the compression method used in the file. CM
= 0-7 are reserved. CM = 8 denotes the "deflate"
compression method, which is the one customarily used by
gzip and which is documented elsewhere.
FLG (FLaGs)
This flag byte is divided into individual bits as follows:
bit 0 FTEXT
bit 1 FHCRC
bit 2 FEXTRA
bit 3 FNAME
bit 4 FCOMMENT
bit 5 reserved
bit 6 reserved
bit 7 reserved
If FTEXT is set, the file is probably ASCII text. This is
an optional indication, which the compressor may set by
checking a small amount of the input data to see whether any
non-ASCII characters are present. In case of doubt, FTEXT
is cleared, indicating binary data. For systems which have
different file formats for ascii text and binary data, the
decompressor can use FTEXT to choose the appropriate format.
We deliberately do not specify the algorithm used to set
this bit, since a compressor always has the option of
leaving it cleared and a decompressor always has the option
of ignoring it and letting some other program handle issues
of data conversion.
If FHCRC is set, a CRC16 for the gzip header is present,
immediately before the compressed data. The CRC16 consists
of the two least significant bytes of the CRC32 for all
bytes of the gzip header up to and not including the CRC16.
[The FHCRC bit was never set by versions of gzip up to
1.2.4, even though it was documented with a different
meaning in gzip 1.2.4.]
If FEXTRA is set, optional extra fields are present, as
described in a following section.
Deutsch Informational [Page 6]
RFC 1952 GZIP File Format Specification May 1996
If FNAME is set, an original file name is present,
terminated by a zero byte. The name must consist of ISO
8859-1 (LATIN-1) characters; on operating systems using
EBCDIC or any other character set for file names, the name
must be translated to the ISO LATIN-1 character set. This
is the original name of the file being compressed, with any
directory components removed, and, if the file being
compressed is on a file system with case insensitive names,
forced to lower case. There is no original file name if the
data was compressed from a source other than a named file;
for example, if the source was stdin on a Unix system, there
is no file name.
If FCOMMENT is set, a zero-terminated file comment is
present. This comment is not interpreted; it is only
intended for human consumption. The comment must consist of
ISO 8859-1 (LATIN-1) characters. Line breaks should be
denoted by a single line feed character (10 decimal).
Reserved FLG bits must be zero.
MTIME (Modification TIME)
This gives the most recent modification time of the original
file being compressed. The time is in Unix format, i.e.,
seconds since 00:00:00 GMT, Jan. 1, 1970. (Note that this
may cause problems for MS-DOS and other systems that use
local rather than Universal time.) If the compressed data
did not come from a file, MTIME is set to the time at which
compression started. MTIME = 0 means no time stamp is
available.
XFL (eXtra FLags)
These flags are available for use by specific compression
methods. The "deflate" method (CM = 8) sets these flags as
follows:
XFL = 2 - compressor used maximum compression,
slowest algorithm
XFL = 4 - compressor used fastest algorithm
OS (Operating System)
This identifies the type of file system on which compression
took place. This may be useful in determining end-of-line
convention for text files. The currently defined values are
as follows:
Deutsch Informational [Page 7]
RFC 1952 GZIP File Format Specification May 1996
0 - FAT filesystem (MS-DOS, OS/2, NT/Win32)
1 - Amiga
2 - VMS (or OpenVMS)
3 - Unix
4 - VM/CMS
5 - Atari TOS
6 - HPFS filesystem (OS/2, NT)
7 - Macintosh
8 - Z-System
9 - CP/M
10 - TOPS-20
11 - NTFS filesystem (NT)
12 - QDOS
13 - Acorn RISCOS
255 - unknown
XLEN (eXtra LENgth)
If FLG.FEXTRA is set, this gives the length of the optional
extra field. See below for details.
CRC32 (CRC-32)
This contains a Cyclic Redundancy Check value of the
uncompressed data computed according to CRC-32 algorithm
used in the ISO 3309 standard and in section 8.1.1.6.2 of
ITU-T recommendation V.42. (See http://www.iso.ch for
ordering ISO documents. See gopher://info.itu.ch for an
online version of ITU-T V.42.)
ISIZE (Input SIZE)
This contains the size of the original (uncompressed) input
data modulo 2^32.
2.3.1.1. Extra field
If the FLG.FEXTRA bit is set, an "extra field" is present in
the header, with total length XLEN bytes. It consists of a
series of subfields, each of the form:
+---+---+---+---+==================================+
|SI1|SI2| LEN |... LEN bytes of subfield data ...|
+---+---+---+---+==================================+
SI1 and SI2 provide a subfield ID, typically two ASCII letters
with some mnemonic value. Jean-Loup Gailly
<gzip@prep.ai.mit.edu> is maintaining a registry of subfield
IDs; please send him any subfield ID you wish to use. Subfield
IDs with SI2 = 0 are reserved for future use. The following
IDs are currently defined:
Deutsch Informational [Page 8]
RFC 1952 GZIP File Format Specification May 1996
SI1 SI2 Data
---------- ---------- ----
0x41 ('A') 0x70 ('P') Apollo file type information
LEN gives the length of the subfield data, excluding the 4
initial bytes.
2.3.1.2. Compliance
A compliant compressor must produce files with correct ID1,
ID2, CM, CRC32, and ISIZE, but may set all the other fields in
the fixed-length part of the header to default values (255 for
OS, 0 for all others). The compressor must set all reserved
bits to zero.
A compliant decompressor must check ID1, ID2, and CM, and
provide an error indication if any of these have incorrect
values. It must examine FEXTRA/XLEN, FNAME, FCOMMENT and FHCRC
at least so it can skip over the optional fields if they are
present. It need not examine any other part of the header or
trailer; in particular, a decompressor may ignore FTEXT and OS
and always produce binary output, and still be compliant. A
compliant decompressor must give an error indication if any
reserved bit is non-zero, since such a bit could indicate the
presence of a new field that would cause subsequent data to be
interpreted incorrectly.

4. Security Considerations
Any data compression method involves the reduction of redundancy in
the data. Consequently, any corruption of the data is likely to have
severe effects and be difficult to correct. Uncompressed text, on
the other hand, will probably still be readable despite the presence
of some corrupted bytes.
It is recommended that systems using this data format provide some
means of validating the integrity of the compressed data, such as by
setting and checking the CRC-32 check value.

7. Appendix: Jean-Loup Gailly's gzip utility
The most widely used implementation of gzip compression, and the
original documentation on which this specification is based, were
created by Jean-Loup Gailly <gzip@prep.ai.mit.edu>. Since this
implementation is a de facto standard, we mention some more of its
features here. Again, the material in this section is not part of
the specification per se, and implementations need not follow it to
be compliant.
When compressing or decompressing a file, gzip preserves the
protection, ownership, and modification time attributes on the local
file system, since there is no provision for representing protection
attributes in the gzip file format itself. Since the file format
includes a modification time, the gzip decompressor provides a
command line switch that assigns the modification time from the file,
rather than the local modification time of the compressed input, to
the decompressed output.
8. Appendix: Sample CRC Code
The following sample code represents a practical implementation of
the CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check). (See also ISO 3309 and ITU-T V.42
for a formal specification.)
The sample code is in the ANSI C programming language. Non C users
may find it easier to read with these hints:
& Bitwise AND operator.
^ Bitwise exclusive-OR operator.
>> Bitwise right shift operator. When applied to an
unsigned quantity, as here, right shift inserts zero
bit(s) at the left.
! Logical NOT operator.
++ "n++" increments the variable n.
0xNNN 0x introduces a hexadecimal (base 16) constant.
Suffix L indicates a long value (at least 32 bits).
/* Table of CRCs of all 8-bit messages. */

/* Flag: has the table been computed? Initially false. */
int crc_table_computed = 0;

A Fast Method for Identifying Plain Text Files
==============================================
Introduction
------------
Given a file coming from an unknown source, it is sometimes desirable
to find out whether the format of that file is plain text. Although
this may appear like a simple task, a fully accurate detection of the
file type requires heavy-duty semantic analysis on the file contents.
It is, however, possible to obtain satisfactory results by employing
various heuristics.
Previous versions of PKZip and other zip-compatible compression tools
were using a crude detection scheme: if more than 80% (4/5) of the bytes
found in a certain buffer are within the range [7..127], the file is
labeled as plain text, otherwise it is labeled as binary. A prominent
limitation of this scheme is the restriction to Latin-based alphabets.
Other alphabets, like Greek, Cyrillic or Asian, make extensive use of
the bytes within the range [128..255], and texts using these alphabets
are most often misidentified by this scheme; in other words, the rate
of false negatives is sometimes too high, which means that the recall
is low. Another weakness of this scheme is a reduced precision, due to
the false positives that may occur when binary files containing large
amounts of textual characters are misidentified as plain text.
In this article we propose a new, simple detection scheme that features
a much increased precision and a near-100% recall. This scheme is
designed to work on ASCII, Unicode and other ASCII-derived alphabets,
and it handles single-byte encodings (ISO-8859, MacRoman, KOI8, etc.)
and variable-sized encodings (ISO-2022, UTF-8, etc.). Wider encodings
(UCS-2/UTF-16 and UCS-4/UTF-32) are not handled, however.
The Algorithm
-------------
The algorithm works by dividing the set of bytecodes [0..255] into three
categories:
- The white list of textual bytecodes:
9 (TAB), 10 (LF), 13 (CR), 32 (SPACE) to 255.
- The gray list of tolerated bytecodes:
7 (BEL), 8 (BS), 11 (VT), 12 (FF), 26 (SUB), 27 (ESC).
- The black list of undesired, non-textual bytecodes:
0 (NUL) to 6, 14 to 31.
If a file contains at least one byte that belongs to the white list and
no byte that belongs to the black list, then the file is categorized as
plain text; otherwise, it is categorized as binary. (The boundary case,
when the file is empty, automatically falls into the latter category.)
Rationale
---------
The idea behind this algorithm relies on two observations.
The first observation is that, although the full range of 7-bit codes
[0..127] is properly specified by the ASCII standard, most control
characters in the range [0..31] are not used in practice. The only
widely-used, almost universally-portable control codes are 9 (TAB),
10 (LF) and 13 (CR). There are a few more control codes that are
recognized on a reduced range of platforms and text viewers/editors:
7 (BEL), 8 (BS), 11 (VT), 12 (FF), 26 (SUB) and 27 (ESC); but these
codes are rarely (if ever) used alone, without being accompanied by
some printable text. Even the newer, portable text formats such as
XML avoid using control characters outside the list mentioned here.
The second observation is that most of the binary files tend to contain
control characters, especially 0 (NUL). Even though the older text
detection schemes observe the presence of non-ASCII codes from the range
[128..255], the precision rarely has to suffer if this upper range is
labeled as textual, because the files that are genuinely binary tend to
contain both control characters and codes from the upper range. On the
other hand, the upper range needs to be labeled as textual, because it
is used by virtually all ASCII extensions. In particular, this range is
used for encoding non-Latin scripts.
Since there is no counting involved, other than simply observing the
presence or the absence of some byte values, the algorithm produces
consistent results, regardless what alphabet encoding is being used.
(If counting were involved, it could be possible to obtain different
results on a text encoded, say, using ISO-8859-16 versus UTF-8.)
There is an extra category of plain text files that are "polluted" with
one or more black-listed codes, either by mistake or by peculiar design
considerations. In such cases, a scheme that tolerates a small fraction
of black-listed codes would provide an increased recall (i.e. more true
positives). This, however, incurs a reduced precision overall, since
false positives are more likely to appear in binary files that contain
large chunks of textual data. Furthermore, "polluted" plain text should
be regarded as binary by general-purpose text detection schemes, because
general-purpose text processing algorithms might not be applicable.
Under this premise, it is safe to say that our detection method provides
a near-100% recall.
Experiments have been run on many files coming from various platforms
and applications. We tried plain text files, system logs, source code,
formatted office documents, compiled object code, etc. The results
confirm the optimistic assumptions about the capabilities of this
algorithm.

can then be looked up with \fBTcl_GetCommandTypeName\fR, which in turn is
called with a command token that information is wanted for and which returns

.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
These functions provide an interface to the function stack that an interpreter
iterates through to evaluate commands. The routine behind a command is
implemented by an initial function and any additional functions that the
routine pushes onto the stack as it progresses. The interpreter itself pushes
functions onto the stack to react to the end of a routine and to exercise other
forms of control such as switching between in-progress stacks and the
evaluation of other scripts at additional levels without adding frames to the C
stack. To execute a routine, the initial function for the routine is called
and then a small bit of code called a \fItrampoline\fR iteratively takes
functions off the stack and calls them, using the value of the last call as the
value of the routine.
This series of C functions provides an interface whereby commands that
are implemented in C can be evaluated, and invoke Tcl commands scripts
and scripts, without consuming space on the C stack. The non-recursive
evaluation is done by installing a \fItrampoline\fR, a small piece of
code that invokes a command or script, and then executes a series of
callbacks when the command or script returns.
.PP
\fBTcl_NRCallObjProc\fR calls \fInreProc\fR using a new trampoline.
The \fBTcl_NRCreateCommand\fR function creates a Tcl command in the
interpreter designated by \fIinterp\fR that is prepared to handle
nonrecursive evaluation with a trampoline. The \fIcmdName\fR argument
gives the name of the new command. If \fIcmdName\fR contains any
namespace qualifiers, then the new command is added to the specified
namespace; otherwise, it is added to the global namespace. \fIproc\fR
gives the procedure that will be called when the interpreter wishes to
evaluate the command in an unoptimized manner, and \fInreProc\fR is
the procedure that will be called when the interpreter wishes to
evaluate the command using a trampoline. \fIdeleteProc\fR is a
function that will be called before the command is deleted from the
interpreter. When any of the three functions is invoked, it is passed
the \fIclientData\fR parameter.
.PP
\fBTcl_NRCreateCommand\fR, an alternative to \fBTcl_CreateObjCommand\fR,
resolves \fIcmdName\fR, which may contain namespace qualifiers, relative to the
current namespace, creates a command by that name, and returns a token for the
command which may be used in subsequent calls to \fBTcl_GetCommandName\fR.
Except for a few cases noted below any existing command by the same name is
first deleted. If \fIinterp\fR is in the process of being deleted
\fBTcl_NRCreateCommand\fR does not create any command, does not delete any
command, and returns NULL.
\fBTcl_NRCreateCommand\fR deletes any existing command
\fIname\fR already associated with the interpreter
(however see below for an exception where the existing command
is not deleted).
It returns a token that may be used to refer
to the command in subsequent calls to \fBTcl_GetCommandName\fR.
If \fBTcl_NRCreateCommand\fR is called for an interpreter that is in
the process of being deleted, then it does not create a new command,
does not delete any existing command of the same name, and returns NULL.
.PP
\fBTcl_NREvalObj\fR pushes a function that is like \fBTcl_EvalObjEx\fR but
consumes no space on the C stack.
The \fIproc\fR and \fInreProc\fR function are expected to conform to

.PP
\fBTcl_NREvalObjv\fR pushes a function that is like \fBTcl_EvalObjv\fR but
consumes no space on the C stack.
When a command that is written to cope with evaluation via trampoline
is invoked without a trampoline on the stack, it will usually respond
to the invocation by creating a trampoline and calling the
trampoline-enabled implementation of the same command. This call is done by
means of \fBTcl_NRCallObjProc\fR. In the call to
\fBTcl_NRCallObjProc\fR, the \fIinterp\fR, \fIclientData\fR,
\fIobjc\fR and \fIobjv\fR parameters should be the same ones that were
passed to \fIproc\fR. The \fInreProc\fR parameter should designate the
trampoline-enabled implementation of the command.
.PP
\fBTcl_NRCmdSwap\fR is like \fBTcl_NREvalObjv\fR, but uses \fIcmd\fR, a token
previously returned by \fBTcl_CreateObjCommand\fR or
\fBTcl_GetCommandFromObj\fR, instead of resolving the first word of \fIobjv\fR.
. The name of this command must be the same as \fIobjv[0]\fR.
\fBTcl_NREvalObj\fR arranges for the script contained in \fIobjPtr\fR
to be evaluated in the interpreter designated by \fIinterp\fR after
the current command (which must be trampoline-enabled) returns. It is
the method by which a command may invoke a script without consuming
space on the C stack. Similarly, \fBTcl_NREvalObjv\fR arranges to
invoke a single Tcl command whose words have already been separated
and substituted. The \fIobjc\fR and \fIobjv\fR parameters give the
words of the command to be evaluated when execution reaches the
trampoline.
.PP
\fBTcl_NRExprObj\fR pushes a function that evaluates \fIobjPtr\fR as an
expression in the same manner as \fBTcl_ExprObj\fR but without consuming space
on the C stack.
\fBTcl_NRCmdSwap\fR allows for trampoline evaluation of a command whose
resolution is already known. The \fIcmd\fR parameter gives a
\fBTcl_Command\fR token (returned from \fBTcl_CreateObjCommand\fR or
\fBTcl_GetCommandFromObj\fR) identifying the command to be invoked in
the trampoline; this command must match the word in \fIobjv[0]\fR.
The remaining arguments are as for \fBTcl_NREvalObjv\fR.
.PP
All of the functions return \fBTCL_OK\fR if the evaluation of the script,
command, or expression has been scheduled successfully. Otherwise (for example
if the command name cannot be resolved), they return \fBTCL_ERROR\fR and store
a message as the interpreter's result.
\fBTcl_NREvalObj\fR, \fBTcl_NREvalObjv\fR and \fBTcl_NRCmdSwap\fR
all accept a \fIflags\fR parameter, which is an OR-ed-together set of
bits to control evaluation. At the present time, the only supported flag
available to callers is \fBTCL_EVAL_GLOBAL\fR.
.\" TODO: Again, this is a lie. Do we want to explain TCL_EVAL_INVOKE

\fBTcl_NRPostProc\fR is:
\fBTcl_NRExprObj\fR arranges for the expression contained in \fIobjPtr\fR
to be evaluated in the interpreter designated by \fIinterp\fR after
the current command (which must be trampoline-enabled) returns. It is
the method by which a command may evaluate a Tcl expression without consuming
space on the C stack. The argument \fIresultPtr\fR is a pointer to an
unshared Tcl_Obj where the result of expression evaluation is to be written.
If expression evaluation returns any code other than TCL_OK, the
\fIresultPtr\fR value is left untouched.
.PP
All of the routines return \fBTCL_OK\fR if command or expression invocation
has been scheduled successfully. If for any reason the scheduling cannot
be completed (for example, if the interpreter is unable to find
the requested command), they return \fBTCL_ERROR\fR with an
appropriate message left in the interpreter's result.
.PP
\fBTcl_NRAddCallback\fR arranges to have a C function called when the
current trampoline-enabled command in the Tcl interpreter designated

.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
These routines save the state of an interpreter before a call to a routine such
as \fBTcl_Eval\fR, and restore the state afterwards.
These routines allows a C procedure to take a snapshot of the current
state of an interpreter so that it can be restored after a call
to \fBTcl_Eval\fR or some other routine that modifies the interpreter
state. There are two triplets of routines meant to work together.
.PP
\fBTcl_SaveInterpState\fR saves the parts of \fIinterp\fR that comprise the
result of a script, including the resulting value, the return code passed as
\fIstatus\fR, and any options such as \fB\-errorinfo\fR and \fB\-errorcode\fR.
It returns a token for the saved state. The interpreter result is not reset
and no interpreter state is changed.
The first triplet stores the snapshot of interpreter state in
an opaque token returned by \fBTcl_SaveInterpState\fR. That token
value may then be passed back to one of \fBTcl_RestoreInterpState\fR
or \fBTcl_DiscardInterpState\fR, depending on whether the interp
state is to be restored. So long as one of the latter two routines
is called, Tcl will take care of memory management.
.PP
\fBTcl_RestoreInterpState\fR restores the state indicated by \fIstate\fR and
returns the \fIstatus\fR originally passed in the corresponding call to
\fBTcl_SaveInterpState\fR.
The second triplet stores the snapshot of only the interpreter
result (not its complete state) in memory allocated by the caller.
These routines are passed a pointer to a \fBTcl_SavedResult\fR structure
that is used to store enough information to restore the interpreter result.
This structure can be allocated on the stack of the calling
procedure. These routines do not save the state of any error
information in the interpreter (e.g. the \fB\-errorcode\fR or
\fB\-errorinfo\fR return options, when an error is in progress).
.PP
If a saved state is not restored, \fBTcl_DiscardInterpState\fR must be called
to release it. A token used to discard or restore state must not be used
again.
Because the routines \fBTcl_SaveInterpState\fR,
\fBTcl_RestoreInterpState\fR, and \fBTcl_DiscardInterpState\fR perform
a superset of the functions provided by the other routines,
any new code should only make use of the more powerful routines.
The older, weaker routines \fBTcl_SaveResult\fR, \fBTcl_RestoreResult\fR,
and \fBTcl_DiscardResult\fR continue to exist only for the sake
of existing programs that may already be using them.
.PP
\fBTcl_SaveResult\fR, \fBTcl_RestoreResult\fR, and \fBTcl_DiscardResult\fR are
deprecated. Instead use \fBTcl_SaveInterpState\fR,
\fBTcl_RestoreInterpState\fR, and \fBTcl_DiscardInterpState\fR, which are more
capable.
\fBTcl_SaveInterpState\fR takes a snapshot of those portions of
interpreter state that make up the full result of script evaluation.
This include the interpreter result, the return code (passed in
as the \fIstatus\fR argument, and any return options, including
\fB\-errorinfo\fR and \fB\-errorcode\fR when an error is in progress.
This snapshot is returned as an opaque token of type \fBTcl_InterpState\fR.
The call to \fBTcl_SaveInterpState\fR does not itself change the
state of the interpreter. Unlike \fBTcl_SaveResult\fR, it does
not reset the interpreter.
.PP
\fBTcl_SaveResult\fR moves the result of \fIinterp\fR to the location
\fIstatePtr\fR points to and returns the interpreter result to its initial
state. It does not save options such as \fB\-errorcode\fR or
\fB\-errorinfo\fR.
\fBTcl_RestoreInterpState\fR accepts a \fBTcl_InterpState\fR token
previously returned by \fBTcl_SaveInterpState\fR and restores the
state of the interp to the state held in that snapshot. The return
value of \fBTcl_RestoreInterpState\fR is the status value originally
passed to \fBTcl_SaveInterpState\fR when the snapshot token was
created.
.PP
\fBTcl_RestoreResult\fR clears any existing result or error in \fIinterp\fR and
moves the result from \fIstatePtr\fR back to \fIinterp\fR. \fIstatePtr\fR is
then in an undefined state and must not be used until passed again to
\fBTcl_DiscardInterpState\fR is called to release a \fBTcl_InterpState\fR
token previously returned by \fBTcl_SaveInterpState\fR when that
snapshot is not to be restored to an interp.
.PP
The \fBTcl_InterpState\fR token returned by \fBTcl_SaveInterpState\fR
must eventually be passed to either \fBTcl_RestoreInterpState\fR
or \fBTcl_DiscardInterpState\fR to avoid a memory leak. Once
the \fBTcl_InterpState\fR token is passed to one of them, the
token is no longer valid and should not be used anymore.
.PP
\fBTcl_SaveResult\fR moves the string and value results
of \fIinterp\fR into the location specified by \fIstatePtr\fR.
\fBTcl_SaveResult\fR clears the result for \fIinterp\fR and
leaves the result in its normal empty initialized state.
.PP
\fBTcl_RestoreResult\fR moves the string and value results from
\fIstatePtr\fR back into \fIinterp\fR. Any result or error that was
already in the interpreter will be cleared. The \fIstatePtr\fR is left
in an uninitialized state and cannot be used until another call to
\fBTcl_SaveResult\fR.
.PP
\fBTcl_DiscardResult\fR releases the state stored at \fBstatePtr\fR, which is
then in an undefined state and must not be used until passed again to
\fBTcl_DiscardResult\fR releases the saved interpreter state
stored at \fBstatePtr\fR. The state structure is left in an
uninitialized state and cannot be used until another call to
\fBTcl_SaveResult\fR.
.PP
If a saved result is not restored, \fBTcl_DiscardResult\fR must be called to
release it.
Once \fBTcl_SaveResult\fR is called to save the interpreter
result, either \fBTcl_RestoreResult\fR or
\fBTcl_DiscardResult\fR must be called to properly clean up the
memory associated with the saved state.

.SH DESCRIPTION
Abstract classes are classes that can contain definitions, but which cannot be
directly manufactured; they are intended to only ever be inherited from and
instantiated indirectly. The characteristic methods of \fBoo::class\fR
(\fBcreate\fR and \fBnew\fR) are not exported by an instance of
\fBoo::abstract\fR.
.PP
Note that \fBoo::abstract\fR is not itself an instance of \fBoo::abstract\fR.
.SS CONSTRUCTOR
The \fBoo::abstract\fR class does not define an explicit constructor; this
means that it is effectively the same as the constructor of the
\fBoo::class\fR class.
.SS DESTRUCTOR
The \fBoo::abstract\fR class does not define an explicit destructor;
destroying an instance of it is just like destroying an ordinary class (and
will destroy all its subclasses).
.SS "EXPORTED METHODS"
The \fBoo::abstract\fR class defines no new exported methods.
.SS "NON-EXPORTED METHODS"
The \fBoo::abstract\fR class explicitly states that \fBcreate\fR,
\fBcreateWithNamespace\fR, and \fBnew\fR are unexported.
.SH EXAMPLES
.PP
This example defines a simple class hierarchy and creates a new instance of
it. It then invokes a method of the object before destroying the hierarchy and
showing that the destruction is transitive.

script fragment that will invoke the method, \fImethodName\fR, on the current
object (as reported by \fBself\fR) when executed. Any additional arguments
provided will be provided as leading arguments to the callback. The resulting
script fragment shall be a proper list.
.PP
Note that it is up to the caller to ensure that the current object is able to
handle the call of \fImethodName\fR; this command does not check that.
\fImethodName\fR may refer to any exported or unexported method, but may not
refer to a private method as those can only be invoked directly from within
methods. If there is no such method present at the point when the callback is
invoked, the standard \fBunknown\fR method handler will be called.
.SH EXAMPLE
This is a simple echo server class. The \fBcallback\fR command is used in two
places, to arrange for the incoming socket connections to be handled by the
\fIAccept\fR method, and to arrange for the incoming bytes on those
connections to be handled by the \fIReceive\fR method.

The \fBclassvariable\fR command is available within methods. It takes a series
of one or more variable names and makes them available in the method's scope;
those variable names must not be qualified and must not refer to array
elements. The originating scope for the variables is the namespace of the
class that the method was defined by. In other words, the referenced variables
are shared between all instances of that class.
.PP
Note: This command is equivalent to the command \fBtypevariable\fR provided by
the snit package in tcllib for approximately the same purpose. If used in a
method defined directly on a class instance (e.g., through the
\fBoo::objdefine\fR \fBmethod\fR definition) this is very much like just

.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
The cookiejar package provides an implementation of the http package's cookie
jar protocol using an SQLite database. It provides one main command,
\fB::http::cookiejar\fR, which is a TclOO class that should be instantiated to
create a cookie jar that manages a particular HTTP session.
.PP
The database management policy can be controlled at the package level by the
\fBconfigure\fR method on the \fB::http::cookiejar\fR class object:
.TP
\fB::http::cookiejar configure\fR ?\fIoptionName\fR? ?\fIoptionValue\fR?
.
If neither \fIoptionName\fR nor \fIoptionValue\fR are supplied, this returns a
copy of the configuration as a Tcl dictionary. If just \fIoptionName\fR is
supplied, just the value of the named option is returned. If both
\fIoptionName\fR and \fIoptionValue\fR are given, the named option is changed
to be the given value.
.RS
.PP
Supported options are:
.TP
\fB\-domainfile \fIfilename\fR
.
A file (defaulting to within the cookiejar package) with a description of the
list of top-level domains (e.g., \fB.com\fR or \fB.co.jp\fR). Such domains
\fImust not\fR accept cookies set upon them. Note that the list of such
domains is both security-sensitive and \fInot\fR constant and should be
periodically refetched. Cookie jars maintain their own cache of the domain
list.
.TP
\fB\-domainlist \fIurl\fR
.
A URL to fetch the list of top-level domains (e.g., \fB.com\fR or
\fB.co.jp\fR) from. Such domains \fImust not\fR accept cookies set upon
them. Note that the list of such domains is both security-sensitive and
\fInot\fR constant and should be periodically refetched. Cookie jars maintain
their own cache of the domain list.
.TP
\fB\-domainrefresh \fIintervalMilliseconds\fR
.
The number of milliseconds between checks of the \fI\-domainlist\fR for new
domains.
.TP
\fB\-loglevel \fIlevel\fR
.
The logging level of this package. The logging level must be (in order of
decreasing verbosity) one of \fBdebug\fR, \fBinfo\fR, \fBwarn\fR, or
\fBerror\fR.
.TP
\fB\-offline \fIflag\fR
.
Allows the cookie managment engine to be placed into offline mode. In offline
mode, the list of domains is read immediately from the file configured in the
\fB\-domainfile\fR option, and the \fB\-domainlist\fR option is not used; it
also makes the \fB\-domainrefresh\fR option be effectively ignored.
.TP
\fB\-purgeold \fIintervalMilliseconds\fR
.
The number of milliseconds between checks of the database for expired
cookies; expired cookies are deleted.
.TP
\fB\-retain \fIcookieCount\fR
.
The maximum number of cookies to retain in the database.
.TP
\fB\-vacuumtrigger \fIdeletionCount\fR
.
A count of the number of persistent cookie deletions to go between vacuuming
the database.
.RE
.PP
Cookie jar instances may be made with any of the standard TclOO instance
creation methods (\fBcreate\fR or \fBnew\fR).
.TP
\fB::http::cookiejar new\fR ?\fIfilename\fR?
.
If a \fIfilename\fR argument is provided, it is the name of a file containing
an SQLite database that will contain the persistent cookies maintained by the
cookie jar; the database will be created if the file does not already
exist. If \fIfilename\fR is not supplied, the database will be held entirely within
memory, which effectively forces all cookies within it to be session cookies.
.SS "INSTANCE METHODS"
.PP
The following methods are supported on the instances:
.TP
\fIcookiejar\fR \fBdestroy\fR
.
This is the standard TclOO destruction method. It does \fInot\fR delete the
SQLite database if it is written to disk. Callers are responsible for ensuring
that the cookie jar is not in use by the http package at the time of
destruction.
.TP
\fIcookiejar\fR \fBforceLoadDomainData\fR
.
This method causes the cookie jar to immediately load (and cache) the domain
list data. The domain list will be loaded from the \fB\-domainlist\fR
configured a the package level if that is enabled, and otherwise will be
obtained from the \fB\-domainfile\fR configured at the package level.
.TP
\fIcookiejar\fR \fBgetCookies\fR \fIprotocol host path\fR
.
This method obtains the cookies for a particular HTTP request. \fIThis
implements the http cookie jar protocol.\fR
.TP
\fIcookiejar\fR \fBpolicyAllow\fR \fIoperation domain path\fR
.
This method is called by the \fBstoreCookie\fR method to get a decision on
whether to allow \fIoperation\fR to be performed for the \fIdomain\fR and
\fIpath\fR. This is checked immediately before the database is updated but
after the built-in security checks are done, and should return a boolean
value; if the value is false, the operation is rejected and the database is
not modified. The supported \fIoperation\fRs are:
.RS
.TP
\fBdelete\fR
.
The \fIdomain\fR is seeking to delete a cookie.
.TP
\fBsession\fR
.
The \fIdomain\fR is seeking to create or update a session cookie.
.TP
\fBset\fR
.
The \fIdomain\fR is seeking to create or update a persistent cookie (with a
defined lifetime).
.PP
The default implementation of this method just returns true, but subclasses of
this class may impose their own rules.
.RE
.TP
\fIcookiejar\fR \fBstoreCookie\fR \fIoptions\fR
.
This method stores a single cookie from a particular HTTP response. Cookies
that fail security checks are ignored. \fIThis implements the http cookie jar
protocol.\fR
.TP
\fIcookiejar\fR \fBlookup\fR ?\fIhost\fR? ?\fIkey\fR?
.
This method looks a cookie by exact host (or domain) matching. If neither
\fIhost\fR nor \fIkey\fR are supplied, the list of hosts for which a cookie is
stored is returned. If just \fIhost\fR (which may be a hostname or a domain
name) is supplied, the list of cookie keys stored for that host is returned.
If both \fIhost\fR and \fIkey\fR are supplied, the value for that key is
returned; it is an error if no such host or key match exactly.

See RFC 7230 Sec 6, which supersedes RFC 2616 Sec 8.1.
.PP
A persistent connection allows multiple HTTP/1.1 transactions to be
carried over the same TCP connection. Pipelining allows a
client to make multiple requests over a persistent connection without
waiting for each response. The server sends responses in the same order
that the requests were received.
.PP
If a POST request fails to complete, typically user confirmation is
needed before sending the request again. The user may wish to verify
whether the server was modified by the failed POST request, before
sending the same request again.
.PP
A HTTP request will use a persistent socket if the call to
\fBhttp::geturl\fR has the option \fB-keepalive true\fR. It will use
pipelining where permitted if the \fBhttp::config\fR option
\fB-pipeline\fR is boolean \fBtrue\fR (its default value).
.PP
The http package maintains no more than one persistent connection to each
server (i.e. each value of
.QW "domain:port" ).
If \fBhttp::geturl\fR is called to make a request over a persistent
connection while the connection is busy with another request, the new
request will be held in a queue until the connection is free.
.PP
The http package does not support HTTP/1.0 persistent connections
controlled by the \fBKeep-Alive\fR header.
.SS "SPECIAL CASES"
.PP
This subsection discusses issues related to closure of the
persistent connection by the server, automatic retry of failed requests,
the special treatment necessary for POST requests, and the options for
dealing with these cases.
.PP
In accordance with RFC 7230, \fBhttp::geturl\fR does not pipeline
requests that use the POST method. If a POST uses a persistent
connection and is not the first request on that connection,
\fBhttp::geturl\fR waits until it has received the response for the previous
request; or (if \fBhttp::config\fR option \fB-postfresh\fR is boolean \fBtrue\fR) it
uses a new connection for each POST.
.PP
If the server is processing a number of pipelined requests, and sends a
response header
.QW "\fBConnection: close\fR"
with one of the responses (other than the last), then subsequent responses
are unfulfilled. \fBhttp::geturl\fR will send the unfulfilled requests again
over a new connection.
.PP
A difficulty arises when a HTTP client sends a request over a persistent
connection that has been idle for a while. The HTTP server may
half-close an apparently idle connection while the client is sending a
request, but before the request arrives at the server: in this case (an
.QW "asynchronous close event" )
the request will fail. The difficulty arises because the client cannot
be certain whether the POST modified the state of the server. For HEAD or
GET requests, \fBhttp::geturl\fR opens another connection and retransmits
the failed request. However, if the request was a POST, RFC 7230 forbids
automatic retry by default, suggesting either user confirmation, or
confirmation by user-agent software that has semantic understanding of
the application. The \fBhttp::config\fR option \fB-repost\fR allows for
either possibility.
.PP
Asynchronous close events can occur only in a short interval of time. The
\fBhttp\fR package monitors each persistent connection for closure by the
server. Upon detection, the connection is also closed at the client end,
and subsequent requests will use a fresh connection.
.PP
If the \fBhttp::geturl\fR command is called with option \fB-keepalive true\fR,
then it will both try to use an existing persistent connection
(if one is available), and it will send the server a
.QW "\fBConnection: keep-alive\fR"
request header asking to keep the connection open for future requests.
.PP
The \fBhttp::config\fR options \fB-pipeline\fR, \fB-postfresh\fR, and
\fB-repost\fR relate to persistent connections.
.PP
Option \fB-pipeline\fR, if boolean \fBtrue\fR, will pipeline GET and HEAD requests
made
over a persistent connection. POST requests will not be pipelined - if the
POST is not the first transaction on the connection, its request will not
be sent until the previous response has finished. GET and HEAD requests
made after a POST will not be sent until the POST response has been
delivered, and will not be sent if the POST fails.
.PP
Option \fB-postfresh\fR, if boolean \fBtrue\fR, will override the \fBhttp::geturl\fR option
\fB-keepalive\fR, and always open a fresh connection for a POST request.
.PP
Option \fB-repost\fR, if \fBtrue\fR, permits automatic retry of a POST request
that fails because it uses a persistent connection that the server has
half-closed (an
.QW "asynchronous close event" ).
Subsequent GET and HEAD requests in a failed pipeline will also be retried.
\fIThe -repost option should be used only if the application understands
that the retry is appropriate\fR - specifically, the application must know
that if the failed POST successfully modified the state of the server, a repeat POST
would have no adverse effect.
.VS TIP406
.SH "COOKIE JAR PROTOCOL"
.PP
Cookies are short key-value pairs used to implement sessions within the
otherwise-stateless HTTP protocol. (See RFC 6265 for details; Tcl does not
implement the Cookie2 protocol as that is rarely seen in the wild.)
.PP
Cookie storage managment commands \(em
.QW "cookie jars"
\(em must support these subcommands which form the HTTP cookie storage
management protocol. Note that \fIcookieJar\fR below does not have to be a
command name; it is properly a command prefix (a Tcl list of words that will
be expanded in place) and admits many possible implementations.
.PP
Though not formally part of the protocol, it is expected that particular
values of \fIcookieJar\fR will correspond to sessions; it is up to the caller
of \fB::http::config\fR to decide what session applies and to manage the
deletion of said sessions when they are no longer desired (which should be
when they not configured as the current cookie jar).
.TP
\fIcookieJar \fBgetCookies \fIprotocol host requestPath\fR
.
This command asks the cookie jar what cookies should be supplied for a
particular request. It should take the \fIprotocol\fR (typically \fBhttp\fR or
\fBhttps\fR), \fIhost\fR name and \fIrequestPath\fR (parsed from the \fIurl\fR
argument to \fB::http::geturl\fR) and return a list of cookie keys and values
that describe the cookies to supply to the remote host. The list must have an
even number of elements.
.RS
.PP
There should only ever be at most one cookie with a particular key for any
request (typically the one with the most specific \fIhost\fR/domain match and
most specific \fIrequestPath\fR/path match), but there may be many cookies
with different names in any request.
.RE
.TP
\fIcookieJar \fBstoreCookie \fIcookieDictionary\fR
.
This command asks the cookie jar to store a particular cookie that was
returned by a request; the result of this command is ignored. The cookie
(which will have been parsed by the http package) is described by a
dictionary, \fIcookieDictionary\fR, that may have the following keys:
.RS
.TP
\fBdomain\fR
.
This is always present. Its value describes the domain hostname \fIor
prefix\fR that the cookie should be returned for. The checking of the domain
against the origin (below) should be careful since sites that issue cookies
should only do so for domains related to themselves. Cookies that do not obey
a relevant origin matching rule should be ignored.
.TP
\fBexpires\fR
.
This is optional. If present, the cookie is intended to be a persistent cookie
and the value of the option is the Tcl timestamp (in seconds from the same
base as \fBclock seconds\fR) of when the cookie expires (which may be in the
past, which should result in the cookie being deleted immediately). If absent,
the cookie is intended to be a session cookie that should be not persisted
beyond the lifetime of the cookie jar.
.TP
\fBhostonly\fR
.
This is always present. Its value is a boolean that describes whether the
cookie is a single host cookie (true) or a domain-level cookie (false).
.TP
\fBhttponly\fR
.
This is always present. Its value is a boolean that is true when the site
wishes the cookie to only ever be used with HTTP (or HTTPS) traffic.
.TP
\fBkey\fR
.
This is always present. Its value is the \fIkey\fR of the cookie, which is
part of the information that must be return when sending this cookie back in a
future request.
.TP
\fBorigin\fR
.
This is always present. Its value describes where the http package believes it
received the cookie from, which may be useful for checking whether the
cookie's domain is valid.
.TP
\fBpath\fR
.
This is always present. Its value describes the path prefix of requests to the
cookie domain where the cookie should be returned.
.TP
\fBsecure\fR
.
This is always present. Its value is a boolean that is true when the cookie
should only used on requests sent over secure channels (typically HTTPS).
.TP
\fBvalue\fR
.
This is always present. Its value is the value of the cookie, which is part of
the information that must be return when sending this cookie back in a future
request.

.SH DESCRIPTION
This package provides an implementation of the punycode scheme used in
Internationalised Domain Names, and some access commands. (See RFC 3492 for a
description of punycode.)
.TP
\fBtcl::idna decode\fR \fIhostname\fR
.
This command takes the name of a host that potentially contains
punycode-encoded character sequences, \fIhostname\fR, and returns the hostname
as might be displayed to the user. Note that there are often UNICODE
characters that have extremely similar glyphs, so care should be taken with
displaying hostnames to users.
.TP
\fBtcl::idna encode\fR \fIhostname\fR
.
This command takes the name of a host as might be displayed to the user,
\fIhostname\fR, and returns the version of the hostname with characters not
permitted in basic hostnames encoded with punycode.
.TP
\fBtcl::idna puny\fR \fIsubcommand ...\fR

This command provides direct access to the basic punycode encoder and
decoder. It supports two \fIsubcommand\fRs:
.RS
.TP
\fBtcl::idna puny decode\fR \fIstring\fR ?\fIcase\fR?
.
This command decodes the punycode-encoded string, \fIstring\fR, and returns
the result. If \fIcase\fR is provided, it is a boolean to make the case be
folded to upper case (if \fIcase\fR is true) or lower case (if \fIcase\fR is
false) during the decoding process; if omitted, no case transformation is
applied.
.TP
\fBtcl::idna puny encode\fR \fIstring\fR ?\fIcase\fR?
.
This command encodes the string, \fIstring\fR, and returns the
punycode-encoded version of the string. If \fIcase\fR is provided, it is a
boolean to make the case be folded to upper case (if \fIcase\fR is true) or
lower case (if \fIcase\fR is false) during the encoding process; if omitted,
no case transformation is applied.

.SH NAME
link \- create link from command to method of object
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
package require TclOO
\fBlink\fR \fImethodName\fR ?\fI...\fR?
\fBlink\fR \fB{\fIcommandName methodName\fB}\fR ?\fI...\fR?
.fi
.BE
.SH DESCRIPTION
The \fBlink\fR command is available within methods. It takes a series of one
or more method names (\fImethodName ...\fR) and/or pairs of command- and
method-name (\fB{\fIcommandName methodName\fB}\fR) and makes the named methods
available as commands without requiring the explicit use of the name of the
object or the \fBmy\fR command. The method does not need to exist at the time
that the link is made; if the link command is invoked when the method does not
exist, the standard \fBunknown\fR method handling system is used.
.PP
The command name under which the method becomes available defaults to the
method name, except where explicitly specified through an alias/method pair.
Formally, every argument must be a list; if the list has two elements, the
first element is the name of the command to create and the second element is
the name of the method of the current object to which the command links;
otherwise, the name of the command and the name of the method are the same
string (the first element of the list).
.PP
If the name of the command is not a fully-qualified command name, it will be
resolved with respect to the current namespace (i.e., the object namespace).
.SH EXAMPLES
This demonstrates linking a single method in various ways. First it makes a
simple link, then a renamed link, then an external link. Note that the method
itself is unexported, but that it can still be called directly from outside
the class.

.PP
The \fBlpop\fR command accepts a parameter, \fIvarName\fR, which
it interprets as the name of a variable containing a Tcl list.
It also accepts one or more \fIindices\fR into
the list. If no indices are presented, it defaults to "end".
.PP
When presented with a single index, the \fBlpop\fR command
addresses the \fIindex\fR'th element in it, removes if from the list
and returns the element.
.PP
If \fIindex\fR is negative or greater or equal than the number
of elements in \fI$varName\fR, then an error occurs.
.PP
The interpretation of each simple \fIindex\fR value is the same as
for the command \fBstring index\fR, supporting simple index
arithmetic and indices relative to the end of the list.
.PP
If additional \fIindex\fR arguments are supplied, then each argument is
used in turn to address an element within a sublist designated
by the previous indexing operation,
allowing the script to remove elements in sublists.

and private methods of the object or class when used within another method

.VE TIP500
superclasses, including those that are not exported. The object upon which the
method is invoked is always the one that is the current context of the method
(i.e. the object that is returned by \fBself object\fR) from which the
\fBmy\fR command is invoked.
.PP
The object upon which the method is invoked via \fBmy\fR is the one that owns
the namespace that the \fBmy\fR command is contained in initially (\fBNB:\fR the link
remains if the command is renamed), which is the currently invoked object by
default.
.VS TIP478
Similarly, the object on which the method is invoked via \fBmyclass\fR is the
object that is the current class of the object that owns the namespace that
the \fBmyclass\fR command is contained in initially. As with \fBmy\fR, the
link remains even if the command is renamed into another namespace, and
defaults to being the manufacturing class of the current object.

tcl::process \- Subprocess management
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fB::tcl::process \fIoption \fR?\fIarg arg ...\fR?
.BE
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
This command provides a way to manage subprocesses created by the \fBopen\fR
and \fBexec\fR commands, as identified by the process identifiers (PIDs) of
those subprocesses. The legal \fIoptions\fR (which may be abbreviated) are:
.TP
\fB::tcl::process autopurge\fR ?\fIflag\fR?
.
Automatic purge facility. If \fIflag\fR is specified as a boolean value then
it activates or deactivate autopurge. In all cases it returns the current
status as a boolean value. When autopurge is active,
\fBTcl_ReapDetachedProcs\fR is called each time the \fBexec\fR command is
executed or a pipe channel created by \fBopen\fR is closed. When autopurge is
inactive, \fB::tcl::process\fR purge must be called explicitly. By default
autopurge is active.
.TP
\fB::tcl::process list\fR
.
Returns the list of subprocess PIDs. This includes all currently executing
subprocesses and all terminated subprocesses that have not yet had their
corresponding process table entries purged.
.TP
\fB::tcl::process purge\fR ?\fIpids\fR?
.
Cleans up all data associated with terminated subprocesses. If \fIpids\fR is
specified as a list of PIDs then the command only cleanup data for the matching
subprocesses if they exist, and raises an error otherwise. If a process listed is
still active, this command does nothing to that process.
.TP
\fB::tcl::process status\fR ?\fIswitches\fR? ?\fIpids\fR?
.
Returns a dictionary mapping subprocess PIDs to their respective status. If
\fIpids\fR is specified as a list of PIDs then the command only returns the
status of the matching subprocesses if they exist, and raises an error
otherwise. For active processes, the status is an empty value. For terminated
processes, the status is a list with the following format:
.QW "\fB{\fIcode\fR ?\fImsg errorCode\fR?\fB}\fR" ,
where:
.RS
.TP
\fIcode\fR\0
.
is a standard Tcl return code, i.e., \fB0\fR for TCL_OK and \fB1\fR
for TCL_ERROR,
.TP
\fImsg\fR\0
.
is the human-readable error message,
.TP
\fIerrorCode\fR\0
.
uses the same format as the \fBerrorCode\fR global variable
.PP
Note that \fBmsg\fR and \fBerrorCode\fR are only present for abnormally
terminated processes (i.e. those where the \fIcode\fR is nonzero). Under the
hood this command calls \fBTcl_WaitPid\fR with the \fBWNOHANG\fR flag set for
non-blocking behavior, unless the \fB\-wait\fR switch is set (see below).
.PP
Additionally, \fB::tcl::process status\fR accepts the following switches:
.TP
\fB\-wait\fR\0
.
By default the command returns immediately (the underlying \fBTcl_WaitPid\fR is
called with the \fBWNOHANG\fR flag set) unless this switch is set. If \fIpids\fR
is specified as a list of PIDs then the command waits until the status of the
matching subprocesses are available. If \fIpids\fR was not specified, this
command will wait for all known subprocesses.
.TP
\fB\-\|\-\fR
.
Marks the end of switches. The argument following this one will
be treated as the first \fIarg\fR even if it starts with a \fB\-\fR.
