Missing ipp_zlib in IPP 9.0 Update 3?

[Jaroslaw_T_]

Hi,

I've decided to try out the IPP version of zlib, but its <ipp directory>/interfaces/data-compression/ipp_zlib folder (according to the documentation seems to be missing in IPP 9.0 Update 3 (both Linux and Windows).  I'd be very grateful for any advice.

Thanks!

Hi Jaroslaw,

Zlib package for IPP comes with 2017 product (Parallel Studio XE 2017, or other 2017 developer tools).
So, there should be no ZLIB libraries in IPP 9.0.3.

Where in IPP 9.0.x documentation have you seen info about ZLIB interface?

Hi Sergey,

it's in the ZLIB Coding Functions section of Vol 1, under the diagrams with zlib data structure etc.  I'll wait for the 2017 release then.

Cheers!

Hi Jaroslaw, 

Just let you know IPP 2017 update 1 was released in the week. You may get it from IPP webpage  and the Zlib library as well.

Here is one answer for your reference. .

Hi Ying,

thank you for letting me know.  I will test the patched zlib 1.2.8 later this month.

Cheers,

Jaroslaw
