Initializes a new instance of the GZipStream class.

Overloads

GZipStream(Stream, CompressionLevel)

Initializes a new instance of the GZipStream class by using the specified stream and compression level.
GZipStream(Stream, CompressionMode)

Initializes a new instance of the GZipStream class by using the specified stream and compression mode.
GZipStream(Stream, CompressionLevel, Boolean)

Initializes a new instance of the GZipStream class by using the specified stream and compression level, and optionally leaves the stream open.
GZipStream(Stream, CompressionMode, Boolean)

Initializes a new instance of the GZipStream class by using the specified stream and compression mode, and optionally leaves the stream open.
GZipStream(Stream, ZLibCompressionOptions, Boolean)

Initializes a new instance of the GZipStream class by using the specified stream, compression options, and optionally leaves the stream open.

GZipStream(Stream, CompressionLevel)

Source:
GZipStream.cs
Source:
GZipStream.cs
Source:
GZipStream.cs

Initializes a new instance of the GZipStream class by using the specified stream and compression level.

public:
 GZipStream(System::IO::Stream ^ stream, System::IO::Compression::CompressionLevel compressionLevel);
public GZipStream (System.IO.Stream stream, System.IO.Compression.CompressionLevel compressionLevel);
new System.IO.Compression.GZipStream : System.IO.Stream * System.IO.Compression.CompressionLevel -> System.IO.Compression.GZipStream
Public Sub New (stream As Stream, compressionLevel As CompressionLevel)

Parameters

stream
Stream

The stream to which compressed data is written.

compressionLevel
CompressionLevel

One of the enumeration values that indicates whether to emphasize speed or compression efficiency when compressing data to the stream.

Exceptions

ArgumentNullException

stream is null.

ArgumentException

The stream does not support write operations such as compression. (The CanWrite property on the stream object is false.)

Remarks

You use this constructor when you want to specify whether compression efficiency or speed is more important for an instance of the GZipStream class.

This constructor overload uses the compression mode Compress. To set the compression mode to another value, use the GZipStream(Stream, CompressionMode) or GZipStream(Stream, CompressionMode, Boolean) overload.

Remarks

By default, GZipStream owns the underlying stream, so closing the stream parameter also closes the underlying stream. Note that the state of the underlying stream can affect the usability of the stream. Also, no explicit checks are performed, so no additional exceptions are thrown when the new instance is created.

If an instance of the GZipStream class is created with the mode parameter equal to Compress and no further action occurs, the stream will appear as a valid, empty compressed file.

By default, the compression level is set to Optimal when the compression mode is Compress.
