I'd like to save KCite database files 'tar | zipped'. I had a look at
KTarGz, but the only function I could find to add files takes a buffer
containing the whole file as argument. In my case, however, the files
contains a data base which can potentially be huge so that trying to load
it into memory is probably not a good idea. I think what I am looking for
is a way to bind an output stream to KTarGz.
- Is that possible? Or does KTarGz require that all files are fully loaded
into memory?
- If KTarGz will not work as I need it, is there another solution you could
suggest? For the moment I try to run the systems tar over a KProcess, but
this involves other problems.
Pascal
PS: This may be a bit off-topic, but since KCite is a tool for KWord and
KOffice uses tar|gzipped files koffice-devel is probably not so bad ;-)
