Deflate decompression in C++23.
This started with the goal of implenting deflate decompression on a GPU, but it turns out that is basically impossible to parallelize. Compression is possible to parallelize, but I have not yet implemented it.
Blog post with some reflections on this project.
Should work on Linux x86_64 and MacOS.
-
Install bazelisk.
-
Verify that you can build and test:
bazel test //...Install the recommended extensions. Type @recommended in the extensions search, or see .vscode/extensions.json.
For the Bazel extension to auto-format .bazel files, you need to install buildifier.
On MacOS, just brew install buildifier.
Create a compilation database:
bazel build //... && bazel run @hedron_compile_commands//:refresh_all && bazel build //...Then configure clangd. If you're using VS Code, the .vscode/settings does this for you, and .vscode/extensions.json already recommends installing the clangd extension.
Otherwise, copy the clangd args from the .vscode/settings.json.
