Hi Miniz (https://code.google.com/p/miniz/ ) is very small and performant implementation of zlib compression with api compatibility and it is public domain... Miniz can be integrated directly into the llvm source code. So it could be a good replacement or alternative to avoid zlib dependency... If someone is interested i can provide a patch.

What is the downside of Zlib dependency? I'm curious! :-) -Filip> On Sep 16, 2014, at 2:45 PM, Christophe Duvernois <christophe.duvernois at gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi > > Miniz (https://code.google.com/p/miniz/ ) is very small and performant implementation of zlib compression with api compatibility and it is public domain... > Miniz can be integrated directly into the llvm source code. > So it could be a good replacement or alternative to avoid zlib dependency... > > If someone is interested i can provide a patch. > > Regards > Christophe > > _______________________________________________ > LLVM Developers mailing list > LLVMdev at cs.uiuc.edu http://llvm.cs.uiuc.edu > http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/mailman/listinfo/llvmdev-------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

It might not be available, so all codepaths have to recover from zlib unavailability. For example, I don't think compressed DWARF works on Windows.
