The application has been tested on these platforms:
- Windows 10
- Ubuntu (20.04)
Note, that it should work on newer versions of these operating systems as well if a compatible JRE is used, but it is not guaranteed. The same is true for different Linux distributions.
In order to quickly launch the application, run either of the following scripts:
run_gzipper.bat
run_gzipper.sh
On Linux-based systems, make sure that the script file is executable by running the following:
chmod +x run_gzipper.sh
You may want to alter the script to point to a different Java home directory.
The scripts assume that a compatible Java version is available in PATH
.
If there is a JAVA_HOME
environment variable set, then the script run_gzipper.bat
may e.g. be altered to:
start /min PowerShell.exe -WindowStyle Hidden "& "$env:JAVA_HOME\bin\java" --module-path ..."
--launch_mode
application
- Default. Launches the entire application.
hashview
- Launches hash (message digest) view only.
For compression and decompression this application uses parts of the commons-compress library by Apache Foundation as well as 'XZ for Java' by Tukaani. Their source code and documentation can be found here:
This application is built for Java 11 and higher and supports Kotlin.
