If you are not going to increase the size of your library a lot, even if it does not serve to increase performance, it could include support for all the most used methods that would dispense with the use of other CLS.


Does your cls-mtx.dll library allow me to extract using executables in folders?
I want to include a mode with decompressors in folders in the CIU and I think that the other CLS don't work the way I need.

Creating folder structures as:

Compressors\PRECOMP\<precomp files>
Compressors\MPZAPI\<mpz files>
Compressors\RAZOR\<rz files>

In the Arc.ini file informing the folder containing the executables, like this:

[External compressor:precomp]
header    = 0
unpackcmd = "PRECOMP\{compressor}" -r -o$$arcdatafile$$.tmp $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp

[External compressor:mpz]
header    = 0
unpackcmd = "MPZAPI\{compressor}" d <stdin> <stdout>

[External compressor:rz]
header    = 0
unpackcmd = "RAZOR\{compressor}" e -y $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp $$arcdatafile$$.tmp

Using in the Inno Setup script like this:

[Files]
Source: cls-mtx.dll; Flags: dontcopy;
Source: CLS.ini; Flags: dontcopy;
Source: Arc.ini; Flags: dontcopy;
Source: UnARC.dll; Flags: dontcopy;
Source: ISDone.dll; Flags: dontcopy;
Source: "Compressors\*"; Flags: dontcopy createallsubdirs recursesubdirs;

[code ]
function InitializeSetup(): Boolean;
begin
   ExtractTemporaryFile('cls-mtx.dll');
   ExtractTemporaryFile('CLS.ini');
   ExtractTemporaryFile('Arc.ini');
   ExtractTemporaryFile('UnARC.dll');
   ExtractTemporaryFile('ISDone.dll');

   ExtractTemporaryFiles('{tmp}\Compressors\*');
end;

Cesar,
"cls-mtx.dll" supports this feature, since v2.0.0.3.

and unpackcmd should be like, ( without inverted commas (") ) (i'll fix this issue in the next update.)

[External compressor:bcm]
header    = 0 
unpackcmd = Res\Bcm\{compressor} -d $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp $$arcdatafile$$.tmp

not

unpackcmd = "Res\Bcm\{compressor}" -d $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp $$arcdatafile$$.tmp

here is the full example,

not

unpackcmd = "Res\Bcm\{compressor}" -d $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp $$arcdatafile$$.tmp

Without double quotes (") in the path names, if the path has spaces then I think it will detect the path to the space and the rest will be interpreted as another parameter causing errors.

[External compressor:bcm]
header    = 0 
unpackcmd = Res\Bcm Compressor\{compressor} -d $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp $$arcdatafile$$.tmp

I will look forward to future updates.
Thank you.

Thank you.

that's not a problem. you can set the path without ("). (note that: for cls-mtx )


like this..

[External compressor:bcm]
header    = 0 
packcmd   = Res\Bcm Compressor\{compressor} -9 $$arcdatafile$$.tmp $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp
unpackcmd = Res\Bcm Compressor\{compressor} -d $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp $$arcdatafile$$.tmp

works well....

unpackcmd = Res\Bcm Compressor\{compressor} -d $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp $$arcdatafile$$.tmp

Thank you!
But if the path was something like that, would it work too?

[External compressor:bcm]
header    = 0 
packcmd   = Res\Bcm compressor\bcm -9 $$arcdatafile$$.tmp $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp
unpackcmd = Res\Bcm -decompressor\bcm -d $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp $$arcdatafile$$.tmp

unpackcmd = Res\Bcm -decompressor\bcm -d $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp $$arcdatafile$$.tmp

yup, of course .
those characters must be valid characters.


but this is wrong.

packcmd   = Res\Bcm compressor\bcm -9 $$arcdatafile$$.tmp $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp

for cls-mtx:

[External compressor:bcm]
header    = 0
packcmd   = Res\Bcm compressor\{compressor} -9 $$arcdatafile$$.tmp $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp

I understand what you said, but it would be useful to be able to use it as used in arc.ini for other compressors that do not use CLS-MTX.dll.

Currently in CIU it uses this configuration mode that allows the user to inform the command in more than one way.

[External compressor:rz,RZ,razor,RAZOR]
header    = 0
packcmd   = "RAZOR\RZ_x64" a -y -d {option} $stdio$ <stdin> <stdout>
unpackcmd = "RAZOR\RZ_x64" e -y $stdio$ <stdin> <stdout>

For 32-bit version the executables are "RZ_x86.exe"

If possible, it would be very useful to be able to configure this way (in the next update of CLS-MTX.dll).
It also needed to allow the use of compressors without the CLS-MTX, such as using for mtx: [External compressor: mtxrz, mtxrazor, mtx_razor, mtx_rz]
and for RAZOR norml to use [External compressor:rz,RZ,razor,RAZOR]
This same name variation would be used for other executables like mpzapi and perhaps some others.

@BLACKFIRE69

Thank you for the update, however a huge bug has been introduced. Nothing has changed in my arc.ini since I added the new version to my compressor:

Compressed 119 files, 13,245,186,961 => 1,672 bytes. Ratio 0.00%
Compression time: cpu 14.33 sec/real 483.57 sec = 3%. Speed 27.39 mB/s
All OK

Using method: mtx:c64m:t16:rz

The folder being compressed is ~700MB and sometimes it says all 700MB becomes 1kb, other times like the above it only recognises some of the data.
