[Zlib-devel] [PATCH] Move gzflags to zutil.c

[jbowler at acm.org]

I second that suggestion.  At present to build libpng with my prior Visual Studio project I have to add:

#define gzflags() 0

In a pre-include file; otherwise the build pulls in gzwrite.obj, which needs gz_error, which pulls in gzlib.obj, yet nothing is used from this object modules except gzflags().

I did try Z_SOLO; this almost worked, but it causes a non-ANSI compliant declaration of ptrdiff_t to be made in zutil.h.

Hi,

I find it a little bit weird that gzflags() belongs to gzwrite.c.  Is there a reason behind this?  I'd like to propose the attached patch.

Cheers,
