22 * 7-Zip, and LZMA SDK. It's called LZMA1 here to prevent developers from
23 * accidentally using LZMA when they actually want LZMA2.

27/**
28 * \brief LZMA1 Filter ID with extended options (for raw encoder/decoder)
29 *
30 * This is like LZMA_FILTER_LZMA1 but with this ID a few extra options
31 * are supported in the lzma_options_lzma structure:
32 *
33 * - A flag to tell the encoder if the end of payload marker (EOPM) alias
34 * end of stream (EOS) marker must be written at the end of the stream.
35 * In contrast, LZMA_FILTER_LZMA1 always writes the end marker.
36 *
37 * - Decoder needs to be told the uncompressed size of the stream
38 * or that it is unknown (using the special value UINT64_MAX).
39 * If the size is known, a flag can be set to allow the presence of
40 * the end marker anyway. In contrast, LZMA_FILTER_LZMA1 always
41 * behaves as if the uncompressed size was unknown.
42 *
43 * This allows handling file formats where LZMA1 streams are used but where
44 * the end marker isn't allowed or where it might not (always) be present.
45 * This extended LZMA1 functionality is provided as a Filter ID for raw
46 * encoder and decoder instead of adding new encoder and decoder initialization
47 * functions because this way it is possible to also use extra filters,
48 * for example, LZMA_FILTER_X86 in a filter chain with LZMA_FILTER_LZMA1EXT,
49 * which might be needed to handle some file formats.

542 * \brief Set a compression preset to lzma_options_lzma structure
543 *
544 * 0 is the fastest and 9 is the slowest. These match the switches -0 .. -9
545 * of the xz command line tool. In addition, it is possible to bitwise-or
546 * flags to the preset. Currently only LZMA_PRESET_EXTREME is supported.
547 * The flags are defined in container.h, because the flags are used also
548 * with lzma_easy_encoder().
549 *
550 * The preset levels are subject to changes between liblzma versions.
551 *
552 * This function is available only if LZMA1 or LZMA2 encoder has been enabled
553 * when building liblzma.
554 *
555 * If features (like certain match finders) have been disabled at build time,
556 * then the function may return success (false) even though the resulting
557 * LZMA1/LZMA2 options may not be usable for encoder initialization
558 * (LZMA_OPTIONS_ERROR).
559 *
560 * \param[out] options Pointer to LZMA1 or LZMA2 options to be filled
561 * \param preset Preset level bitwse-ORed with preset flags
562 *
563 * \return lzma_bool:
564 * - true if the preset is not supported (failure).
565 * - false otherwise (success).
