I agree that `Zlib::GzipReader.open` should behave like zcat, but `each_file` is a useful additional feature to have. And it's already implemented. I was at the meeting @ko1 is talking about. Devs at the meeting were not sure if "`each_file` is a useful additional feature to have" you say is real or not. Do you know if there are cases when taking a random member of such gzip file is actually useful? ---------------------------------------- Bug #9790: Zlib::GzipReader only decompressed the first of concatenated files https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/9790#change-83941 * Author: quainjn (Jake Quain) * Status: Feedback * Priority: Normal * Assignee: drbrain (Eric Hodel) * Target version: * ruby -v: 2.1.1 * Backport: 2.0.0: UNKNOWN, 2.1: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- There is a similar old issue in Node that I came across that perfectly describes the situation in ruby: https://github.com/joyent/node/issues/6032 In ruby given the following setup: ``` echo "1" > 1.txt echo "2" > 2.txt gzip 1.txt gzip 2.txt cat 1.txt.gz 2.txt.gz > 3.txt.gz ``` Calling: ``` Zlib::GzipReader.open("3.txt.gz") do |gz| print gz.read end ``` would just print: ``` 1 ``` ---Files-------------------------------- zlib-gzreader-each_file-9790.patch (3.47 KB) -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
