## Constructor Details

### GZIPOutputStream

public GZIPOutputStream(OutputStream out, int size) throws IOException
Creates a new output stream with the specified buffer size.

The new output stream instance is created as if by invoking the 3-argument constructor GZIPOutputStream(out, size, false).

Parameters:
  `out` - the output stream
  `size` - the output buffer size
Throws:
  `IOException` - If an I/O error has occurred.
  `IllegalArgumentException` - if `size <= 0`

### GZIPOutputStream

public GZIPOutputStream(OutputStream out, int size, boolean syncFlush) throws IOException
Creates a new output stream with the specified buffer size and flush mode.

Parameters:
  `out` - the output stream
  `size` - the output buffer size
  `syncFlush` - if `true` invocation of the inherited `flush()` method of this instance flushes the compressor with flush mode `Deflater.SYNC_FLUSH` before flushing the output stream, otherwise only flushes the output stream
Throws:
  `IOException` - If an I/O error has occurred.
  `IllegalArgumentException` - if `size <= 0`
Since:
  1.7

### GZIPOutputStream

public GZIPOutputStream(OutputStream out) throws IOException
Creates a new output stream with a default buffer size.

The new output stream instance is created as if by invoking the 2-argument constructor GZIPOutputStream(out, false).

Parameters:
  `out` - the output stream
Throws:
  `IOException` - If an I/O error has occurred.

### GZIPOutputStream

public GZIPOutputStream(OutputStream out, boolean syncFlush) throws IOException
Creates a new output stream with a default buffer size and the specified flush mode.

Parameters:
  `out` - the output stream
  `syncFlush` - if `true` invocation of the inherited `flush()` method of this instance flushes the compressor with flush mode `Deflater.SYNC_FLUSH` before flushing the output stream, otherwise only flushes the output stream
Throws:
  `IOException` - If an I/O error has occurred.
Since:
  1.7

## Method Details

### write

public void write(byte[] buf, int off, int len) throws IOException
Writes array of bytes to the compressed output stream. This method will block until all the bytes are written.

Overrides:
  `write` in class `DeflaterOutputStream`
Parameters:
  `buf` - the data to be written
  `off` - the start offset of the data
  `len` - the length of the data
Throws:
  `IOException` - If an I/O error has occurred.
See Also:
  - `FilterOutputStream.write(int)`

### finish

public void finish() throws IOException
Finishes writing compressed data to the output stream without closing the underlying stream. Use this method when applying multiple filters in succession to the same output stream.

Overrides:
  `finish` in class `DeflaterOutputStream`
Throws:
  `IOException` - if an I/O error has occurred
