val output_value : out_channel -> 'a -> unit

Compression.output_value chan v writes the representation of v on channel chan. If compression is supported, the marshaled data representing value v is compressed before being written to channel chan. If compression is not supported, this function behaves like Stdlib.output_value.

val input_value : in_channel -> 'a

Compression.input_value chan reads from channel chan the byte representation of a structured value, as produced by Compression.output_value, and reconstructs and returns the corresponding value. If compression is not supported, this function behaves like Stdlib.input_value.

val compression_supported : bool

Reports whether compression is supported.
