NAME
       CMS_uncompress - uncompress a CMS CompressedData structure


SYNOPSIS
        #include <openssl/cms.h>

        int CMS_uncompress(CMS_ContentInfo *cms, BIO *dcont, BIO *out, unsigned int flags);


DESCRIPTION
       CMS_uncompress() extracts and uncompresses the content from a CMS CompressedData structure cms. data is a
       BIO to write the content to and flags is an optional set of flags.

       The dcont parameter is used in the rare case where the compressed content is detached. It will normally
       be set to NULL.


NOTES
       The only currently supported compression algorithm is zlib: if the structure indicates the use of any
       other algorithm an error is returned.

       If zlib support is not compiled into OpenSSL then CMS_uncompress() will always return an error.

       The following flags can be passed in the flags parameter.

       If the CMS_TEXT flag is set MIME headers for type text/plain are deleted from the content. If the content
       is not of type text/plain then an error is returned.


RETURN VALUES
       CMS_uncompress() returns either 1 for success or 0 for failure. The error can be obtained from
       ERR_get_error(3)


BUGS
       The lack of single pass processing and the need to hold all data in memory as mentioned in CMS_verify()
       also applies to CMS_decompress().
