Compress String Feed to Base64

See more Compression Examples

This example receives incoming text data in chunks, compresses as a stream, and accumulates the compressed data in base64. C++

    // This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    compress.put_Algorithm("deflate");

    }

    std::cout << "The base64 encoded compressed text:" << "\r\n";
    std::cout << bdCompressed.getEncoded("base64") << "\r\n";

    // Decompress in one call:
