@@ -95,12 +95,6 @@ following exceptions. The code *almost* complies with RFC 1951, with the following exceptions. -* zlib-deflate-nostdlib assumes that Huffman codes are limited to a length - of 12 bits and that there are no more than 255 codes per length. This appears - to be a reasonable assumption for embedded devices, whose decompression - abilities are limited by the amount of RAM anyways. I have not yet determined - whether longer Huffman codes can appear in practice or not, and if so, under - which conditions. * zlib-deflate-nostdlib does not yet support compressed items consisting of more than one deflate block. I intend to fix this. |
