lzstring4j - LZString for Java

lzstring4j is an easy to use implementation of JavaScript LZString Library for Java.

This idea is inspired by lz-string-java.

Features:

How to use

Using lzstring4j is quite simple. But lets see:

Checkout and compile the project:

git clone https://github.com/diogoduailibe/lzstring4j.git
cd lzstring4j
ant jar
mv jar/lzstring4j.jar /path/to/your/libs/project

If you're using ant, change your build.xml to include lzstring4j.jar. If you're eclipse, add the jar to your project buildpath.

Afterwards, you'll be able to use this library:

Normal Compression and Decompression:


        // Normal Compression and Decompression
        String test = "Lets see how much we can compress this string!";

        String output = LZString.compress(test);

        System.out.println("Compressed: " + output);

        String decompressed = LZString.decompress(output);

        System.out.println("Decompressed: " + decompressed);

UTF-16 Compression and Decompression:

        //UTF-16 Compression and Decompression 
        String testUTF16 = "Lets see how much we can compress this string!";

        String outputUTF16 = LZString.compressToUTF16(testUTF16);

        System.out.println("Compressed: " + outputUTF16);

        String decompressedUTF16 = LZString.decompressFromUTF16(outputUTF16);

        System.out.println("Decompressed: " + decompressedUTF16);

Checkout

git clone https://github.com/diogoduailibe/lzstring4j.git

Building

to build a jar-file:

cd $PATH_TO_LZSTRING4J
ant jar
ls jar/lzstring4j.jar

You'll find the lzstring4j-jar in jar/lzstring4j.jar
