GZIP without using IIS ?

Question

Hi Guys,

I was wondering whether anyone knew of any ASP.NET compression modules that can use GZIP without relying on the IIS dynamic compression module ?

We have some content which we want serve up as GZIPPED but we dont want to rely on IIS compression.

Anyone have any ideas?

Answer 1

If you want to do this in code the .NET 7Zip library supports GZip compression. You could write an HTTPModule ot HTTPHandler that wraps the 7Zip compression library and handle this in code.

Answer 2

Do you want to compress aspx output, using code you contro? How about this module?
