Amiga Events : XAD 7-Zip plug-in supports PPMd
Posted by Chris on 2009/2/6 12:20:44 (3670 reads) News by the same author
Amiga Events

By popular demand, I have updated the xadmaster.library plug-in for 7-Zip to support archives compressed with PPMd.

This support is currently only built into the OS4 compile due to unforeseen problems with the 68k build.

Download or update using AmiUpdate.

Does it means that with OS4 is possible to open 7zip files?
This is great!

Does it support multi-coder and/or multi-packet stream?

@Allanon

It has done for a while, I've just updated it to support another of the popular compression methods.

@mailman

I have absolutely no idea what that means!

This is good news!

good work!

I think he means, split archives, exactly like split rar archives usually associated with distributions available from Rapidshare and alike.

Hello,

Thanks a lot for this new version.

@Chris

I can test some 7z archives which has some strong or sophisticated compression methods if the plug-in supports them. So far, none of the tools for classic Amiga can handle them.

Totally different question concerning AmigaOS 3.x: if XAD is 68k, can the plug-ins be PPC (eg. WarpOS)? If yes, is it possible to have the compilation of 7-zip plugin for WarpOS?

@Mrodfr

I have it compiled for 68k (in fact the code is there in this release, just disabled) but for some reason it isn't working - appears to get stuck in a loop before it starts. I need to build the standalone decompressor and see what happens, but thought it was a good idea to release the OS4 version now as I don't know how long that will take or whether I will be able to get it working.

@mailman

Probably, I'll see what I can do.

Multi stream works! So far I haven't encountered archive which can not be dearchived (before there were). Thank you.

Could consider the WarpOS version of the plugin (if it is possible at all)? It could probably speed up the unarchiving process.

Hi Chris,

I have a 300 Mo 7z file which contains a 1.6 G iso file.

Whatever I use your pugin or 7zdec, I have the same error : not enough memory.

I have a A1, 1Gb and use JFXS to decompress on.

Have you an hint to resolve this ?

Thanks
