#include <openssl/cms.h> CMS_ContentInfo *CMS_compress(BIO *in, int comp_nid, unsigned int flags);
If zlib support is not compiled into OpenSSL then CMS_compress() will return an error.
If the CMS_TEXT flag is set MIME headers for type text/plain are prepended to the data.
Normally the supplied content is translated into MIME canonical format (as required by the S/MIME specifications) if CMS_BINARY is set no translation occurs. This option should be used if the supplied data is in binary format otherwise the translation will corrupt it. If CMS_BINARY is set then CMS_TEXT is ignored.
If the CMS_STREAM flag is set a partial CMS_ContentInfo structure is returned suitable for streaming I/O: no data is read from the BIO in.
The compressed data is included in the CMS_ContentInfo structure, unless CMS_DETACHED is set in which case it is omitted. This is rarely used in practice and is not supported by SMIME_write_CMS().
Several functions including SMIME_write_CMS(), i2d_CMS_bio_stream(), PEM_write_bio_CMS_stream() finalize the structure. Alternatively finalization can be performed by obtaining the streaming ASN1 BIO directly using BIO_new_CMS().
Additional compression parameters such as the zlib compression level cannot currently be set.
