Hello,

Say I have a file that is 20 gigs or whatever god-awful size, and I need to compress it into some number of 630 mb chunks(or whatever size I choose). Is there a DLL or something I can use to write the data to a compression routine until the size of the compressed file equals 630mbs, and keep doing it until the entire data file has been compressed into chunks?

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Sean

Split file (with optional compression), Following code is used : CoolBorder, Encryption (to ini), Check if file exists, FileString Manipulation, ProgressBar Deluxe 1.01, Huffman Compression Class (by F.Q). Very low memory usage when splitting/joining files. See the about tab for additional Credits.

You can find sources for this at planet-source-code

You may take advantage of the "Huffman Compression Class" code...
