Bz2

Set this property to true to request cancellation of the compression or decompression operation currently executing on this object. Long-running operations check the request periodically; an operation that finishes quickly may complete before the request is observed.

A synchronous call can be cancelled by setting this property from another thread. After cancellation is processed, Chilkat resets the property to false. If no operation is running, a previously set value is cleared when the next method begins.

If set to a file path, this property logs the LastErrorText of each Chilkat method or property call to the specified file. This logging helps identify the context and history of Chilkat calls leading up to any crash or hang, aiding in debugging.

Enabling the VerboseLogging property provides more detailed information. This property is mainly used for debugging rare instances where a Chilkat method call causes a hang or crash, which should generally not happen.

Possible causes of hangs include:

• A timeout property set to 0, indicating an infinite timeout.
• A hang occurring within an event callback in the application code.
• An internal bug in the Chilkat code causing the hang.

Provides HTML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

Provides plain text information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

Provides XML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

Indicates the success or failure of the most recent method call: true means success, false means failure. This property remains unchanged by property setters or getters. This method is present to address challenges in checking for null or Nothing returns in certain programming languages. Note: This property does not apply to methods that return integer values or to boolean-returning methods where the boolean does not indicate success or failure.

If set to true, then the contents of LastErrorText (or LastErrorXml, or LastErrorHtml) may contain more verbose information. The default value is false. Verbose logging should only be used for debugging. The potentially large quantity of logged information may adversely affect peformance.

Version of the component/library, such as "10.1.0"

Compresses the current contents of bd in place. On success, the BinData no longer contains the original bytes; it contains the complete standard BZip2 stream that may be saved with a .bz2 extension.

Returns true for success, false for failure.

Reads the file at inFilename and writes its compressed bytes as a standard BZip2 stream to the file at toPath. The output is conventionally given a .bz2 extension.

Both arguments must identify files, not directories. They may be absolute or relative paths, for example data/report.txt and data/report.txt.bz2.

Returns true for success, false for failure.

Decompresses the BZip2 stream currently contained in bd in place. On success, the BinData is replaced with the original uncompressed bytes.

Returns true for success, false for failure.

Reads the BZip2 stream from the file at inFilename, decompresses it, and writes the original uncompressed bytes to the file at toPath.

Both arguments must identify files, not directories. Chilkat does not derive the destination name from the .bz2 filename because the BZip2 stream does not contain the original filename.

Returns true for success, false for failure.
