This is a fork of the snappy-go library from code.google.com. It has been changed to use the C++ snappy library for encoding and decoding.
This package is also a go-gettable version of the C++ snappy library for use in
Go code that needs to link against the C++ snappy library but wants to
integrate with go get
and go build
. The snappy source is currently pinned
to the 1.1.1 release.
To use in your project you need to import the package and set appropriate cgo flag directives:
import _ "github.com/cockroachdb/c-snappy"
// #cgo CXXFLAGS: -std=c++11
// #cgo CPPFLAGS: -I <relative-path>/c-snappy/internal
// #cgo darwin LDFLAGS: -Wl,-undefined -Wl,dynamic_lookup
// #cgo !darwin LDFLAGS: -Wl,-unresolved-symbols=ignore-all
import "C"
