Compatibility notes

|
===================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Although the name "zlib" would have been more normal for the
|
||
|
|
zlibpas unit, this name is already taken by Borland's ZLib unit.
|
||
|
|
This is somehow unfortunate, because that unit is not a genuine
|
||
|
|
interface to the full-fledged zlib functionality, but a suite of
|
||
|
|
class wrappers around zlib streams. Other essential features,
|
||
|
|
such as checksums, are missing.
|
||
|
|
It would have been more appropriate for that unit to have a name
|
||
|
|
like "ZStreams", or something similar.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The C and zlib-supplied types int, uInt, long, uLong, etc. are
|
||
|
|
translated directly into Pascal types of similar sizes (Integer,
|
||
|
|
LongInt, etc.), to avoid namespace pollution. In particular,
|
||
|
|
there is no conversion of unsigned int into a Pascal unsigned
|
||
|
|
integer. The Word type is non-portable and has the same size
|
||
|
|
(16 bits) both in a 16-bit and in a 32-bit environment, unlike
|
||
|
|
Integer. Even if there is a 32-bit Cardinal type, there is no
|
||
|
|
real need for unsigned int in zlib under a 32-bit environment.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Except for the callbacks, the zlib function interfaces are
|
||
|
|
assuming the calling convention normally used in Pascal
|
||
|
|
(__pascal for DOS and Windows16, __fastcall for Windows32).
|
||
|
|
Since the cdecl keyword is used, the old Turbo Pascal does
|
||
|
|
not work with this interface.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The gz* function interfaces are not translated, to avoid
|
||
|
|
interfacing problems with the C runtime library. Besides,
|
||
|
|
gzprintf(gzFile file, const char *format, ...)
|
||
|
|
cannot be translated into Pascal.
