XZ.NET is a .NET wrapper for liblzma.dll

Licensed under MIT license. See LICENSE, AUTHORS.

This project uses a public domain compression library liblzma from XZ Utils and build tools for Windows (MinGW-w64), which were used by creators of XZ Utils. See LICENSE-Notices for information.

The intentions of this library is to provide basic operations with .xz file format to .NET (C#, F#, VB) developers.

The library was tested with i686-sse2 and x86-64 version of liblzma 5.2.1 (these versions are included in project under names liblzma.dll and liblzma64.dll).

You can find some basic examples in 'Examples' folder of project.
