- PROJECT
- The zziplib provides read access to zipped files in a zip-archive,
- using compression based solely on free algorithms provided by zlib.
- It also provides a functionality to overlay the archive filesystem
- with the filesystem of the operating system environment.
- AUTHOR
- The project was originally written by Tomi Ollila, later largely
- rewritten by Guido Draheim, and extended with contributions in
- the years to follow. Guido Draheim <guidod@gmx.de> holds the full
- copyright to the zziplib sources.
- COPYING
- The zziplib may be used freely under the restrictions of the
- GNU Lesser General Public License version 2 or later. Alternativly
- the Mozilla Public license can be chosen. The sources are under
- a dual license, as long as the MPL hint is not removed, the modified
- files will be again under a dual license for the final recipient.
- LICENSING
- If you can not use a dynalinked library according to LGPL rules,
- then look at docs/copying.htm for a few hints. Generally the LGPL
- has a way for staticlinking as well as the MPL has a way. Anyway,
- special (paid) licenses can be negotiated with the copyright holder.
- HOMEPAGE
- The zziplib project is hosted at SourceForge, the complete
- documentation can be found at http://zziplib.sf.net - the
- SourceForge servers are also used to distribute the sources
- of the zziplib project. Releases are announced via the
- freshmeat services on http://freshmeat.net/projects/zziplib
- INSTALLATION
- The zziplib sources are built with gnu autotools and they should
- be easy to install on unixish systems via the usual sequence of
- `configure && make && make check && make install`. Many distributors
- ship prebuilt packages e.g. in rpm format. Additionally there are
- MSVC project files shipped along for usage with the Microsoft
- VisualC series of compilers. There should be no problem either
- when crosscompiling the zziplib for a third host platform.
- MAINTAINANCE
- The zziplib library is intentionally a lightweight interface to
- zip files. The author take patches but please consider to put
- complex extensions into separate modules rather than implanting them
- right into the core of the library engine. All Patches and Bug Reports
- should be sent to Guido Draheim <guidod@gmx.de>.
