How to compress XML data that returns a webservice

[Jose L. Velazquez]

Hi all,

I have made a webservice that returns an XML, but sometimes the connection
is so slow and there is a lot of data to be returned. I would like to know if
it is possible to send this data compressed, and how to do it.

Thanks.

Jose Luis.

Hi,
Using System.IO.Compression namespace in .Net 2.0 you can achieve this.
Create the DeflateStream and pass the file's stream and set the compression
mode to Compress. See the below code to compress and decompress.

Compress :
outfile = New FileStream("test.xmd", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write)
DefStream = New DeflateStream(outfile, CompressionMode.Compress, False)
ds.WriteXml(DefStream)

DeCompress:
infile = New FileStream("test.xmd", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read)
DefStream = New DeflateStream(infile, CompressionMode.Decompress, False)
ds.ReadXml(DefStream)
