From d09c5753e33ff96ee57edb6d1e98e34041203695 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lasse Collin Date: Thu, 21 Oct 2010 23:06:31 +0300 Subject: liblzma: Update the comments in the API headers. Adding support for LZMA_FINISH for Index encoding and decoding needed tiny additions to the relevant .c files too. --- src/liblzma/api/lzma/vli.h | 31 +++++++++++++++---------------- 1 file changed, 15 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) (limited to 'src/liblzma/api/lzma/vli.h') diff --git a/src/liblzma/api/lzma/vli.h b/src/liblzma/api/lzma/vli.h index 57e3d388..9ad13f2e 100644 --- a/src/liblzma/api/lzma/vli.h +++ b/src/liblzma/api/lzma/vli.h @@ -29,7 +29,7 @@ /** - * \brief Maximum supported value of variable-length integer + * \brief Maximum supported value of a variable-length integer */ #define LZMA_VLI_MAX (UINT64_MAX / 2) @@ -39,11 +39,10 @@ #define LZMA_VLI_UNKNOWN UINT64_MAX /** - * \brief Maximum supported length of variable length integers + * \brief Maximum supported encoded length of variable length integers */ #define LZMA_VLI_BYTES_MAX 9 - /** * \brief VLI constant suffix */ @@ -53,19 +52,19 @@ /** * \brief Variable-length integer type * - * This will always be unsigned integer.
