Author compress/decompress database functions in Ultralite?

We're running 9.0.2.3249

It looks like the compress/uncompress functions are not supported in
Ultralite for .Net, is this correct?

If so, does anyone know of a good compression library that is
compatible with the ASA compress function? ASA uses lzw/zip algorithm
by default, so in theory it should be available somewhere.

All we really need is the decompression.

It looks like the zip compression is compatible with the Java
Inflator/Deflater classes, which is borrowed from zlib.

I ran a test and it uncompresses correctly, in case anyone needs
to do the same thing.

Now back to you regularly scheduled newsgroup...
