Re: [Wikitech-l] Phonegap and Wikimedia mobile apps
Hi Arunesh,
Firstly, thank you again for doing the java port.
I've one question regarding the features of the port:
Is there or do you plan to add a feature for iterating over the index? (Similar to find/findByTitle in C++ zimlib)
This would be required to add some auto complete feature to the phonegap app.
Best regards,
Christian

Yes, images are not compressed in ZIM files, as Emmanuel pointed out.
Also, I have tried decompressing a LZMA compressed file on an Android phone (HTC Wildfire to be precise), and the decompression speed is not a problem.
LZMA-Java is under frequent development by Lasse Collin, so we should make sure that the latest code is used.On Sat, Sep 24, 2011 at 6:00 PM, Emmanuel Engelhart <emmanuel-dU3mOXAlhucBXFe83j6qeQ@public.gmane.org> wrote:On 24/09/2011 14:24, Christian Pühringer wrote:

Images should not be compressed in ZIM files for the obvious reasons
they mainly are already compressed. This is the case for all ZIM files I
made. As far as I know this is also the case for Mediawiki:Collection
build ZIM files.
