does anybody know, which Compression-Method the WinDev-Function Compress() uses and maybe, how to decompress the result in php?
The API of WinDev only says "binary" compression, but no further details about it. http://doc.windev.com/en-US/?3024012&product=WD&productversion=XXA150
In php I can use unpack(), but have to say which format. Without knowlegde it's a search of a needle in a haystack.
Maybe there's anyone, who has already done this, and could help me out.
Sample: zip-File containing a sample-Result of the Compress()-Function and the plain content for comparison
PCSOFT use their WDZ format for most of anything and it's not standard so you wont be able to open it with the usual tools. I heard they used some of the usual libs like zlib but put their little twist to it so you probably could only work with their tool WDZIP.EXE to work with that.
You should look at other functions like zipCreate() for creating archives and using some standard formats: http://doc.windev.com/en-US/?3082007
Hope this helps :)
