class
   Compress::Deflate::Writer
  
  
  Overview
A write-only IO object to compress data in the DEFLATE format.
Instances of this class wrap another IO object. When you write to this instance, it compresses the data and writes it to the underlying IO.
NOTE  unless created with a block, #close must be invoked after all
data has been written to a Flate::Writer instance.

        .new(output : IO, level : Int32 = Compress::Deflate::DEFAULT_COMPRESSION, strategy : Compress::Deflate::Strategy = Compress::Deflate::Strategy::DEFAULT, sync_close : Bool = false, dict : Bytes | Nil = nil)
        
          Creates an instance of Flate::Writer. 
Class Method Summary
- 
        .open(io : IO, level : Int32 = Compress::Deflate::DEFAULT_COMPRESSION, strategy : Compress::Deflate::Strategy = Compress::Deflate::Strategy::DEFAULT, sync_close : Bool = false, dict : Bytes | Nil = nil, &)
        
          Creates a new writer for the given io, yields it to the given block, and closes it at its end. 
Instance Method Summary
- 
        #close : Nil
        
          Closes this writer. 
- 
        #closed? : Bool
        
          Returns trueif this IO is closed.
- 
        #flush : Nil
        
          See IO#flush.
- 
        #inspect(io : IO) : Nil
        
          Appends a String representation of this object which includes its class name, its object address and the values of all instance variables. 
- #read(slice : Bytes) : NoReturn
- 
        #sync_close=(sync_close : Bool)
        
          If #sync_close?istrue, closing this IO will close the underlying IO.
- 
        #sync_close? : Bool
        
          If #sync_close?istrue, closing this IO will close the underlying IO.
- 
        #write(slice : Bytes) : Nil
        
          See IO#write.
