Compression LZMA2 (SWCompression)

I don’t have any insight into the third-party library you’re using. If you need help with that, you should raise a question via its support channel.

is there any other way to achieve LZMA2 compression for my data in SwiftUI?

Apple’s Compression framework supports LZMA. According to the Fount of All Knowledge™ [1]:

LZMA2 is a simple container format that can include both uncompressed data and LZMA data

Compression framework only supports compressed streams; it doesn’t work with container formats at all. However, you could potentially use its LZMA compression to build support for that container format, either into that third-party library or in your own code.

If you’re not wedded to the LZMA2 container format, check out the Apple Archive container format.

[1] A DevForums bug (r. 139710861) prevents me from including the link properly, so here it is in plain text:

https://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lempel–Ziv–Markov_chain_algorithm

I have integrated LZMA2 compression into my iOS app, Hogs, and successfully implemented compression. However, when attempting to upload the app for TestFlight, I encountered an error:

"The app references non-public symbols in Payload/Hogs.app/Hogs: _lzma_code, _lzma_end."

These functions are part of the LZMA compression library (specifically LZMA2). Here's a detailed description of the issue:

What I Have Done: LZMA2 Integration: I integrated LZMA2 compression into the app and created a wrapper around the LZMA functions (_lzma_code, _lzma_end) to prevent direct references. App Build Configuration: I ensured the LZMA2 library is linked correctly with the -lzma flag in the linker settings. I wrapped the LZMA functions in custom functions (my_lzma_code, my_lzma_end) in an attempt to avoid using the non-public symbols directly. Error Message: During the app submission process, I received the following error:

"The app references non-public symbols in Payload/Hogs.app/Hogs: _lzma_code, _lzma_end." Steps Taken to Resolve: Checked if any LZMA functions were exposed incorrectly. Ensured that all non-public symbols were properly encapsulated in a wrapper. Verified linker settings to ensure the proper inclusion of the LZMA2 library. Request: Could anyone provide suggestions or best practices to resolve this issue and avoid references to non-public symbols? Should I use a different method for linking LZMA2 or encapsulating these symbols?

Thank You: I appreciate your help in resolving this issue so I can move forward with submitting the app for TestFlight.
