I have a program that compresses and encrypts thousands of individual chunks 
of data.  Each chunk must be compressed and encrypted separately. 
 Everything works, but there must be a more optimal way to go about it than 
I am currently.  Here is the code I execute for each chunk to compress it.

// Create the compressor and load it up

CryptoPP::ZlibCompressor compressor;

compressor.Put( buffer, sizeB );

compressor.MessageEnd();

// Get the new size

newSizeB = compressor.MaxRetrievable();

// Get the data

compressor.Get( newBuffer, newSizeB); 

As you can see, I allocate a new compressor for each chunk.  This is done in 
a big loop, so I figured that I could "new" a compressor before the loop to 
save on the cost of creating the compressor for each chunk.  But, this does 
not work.  The first chunk that passes through the compressor works fine, 
but I always get a MaxRetrievable of 0 for all later chunks.  I have tried 
putting Flush(true) in all over the place but nothing seems to work yet. 
 The same issue holds for the encryption pass.  Any ideas?

One other thing.  I am working on OS X 10.6 with XCode 3.2.2.  I compiled 
Crypto++ as a static lib and everything went well.  When I compile my app I 
get two warnings from the included Crypto++ header files:

../../Include/cryptopp/algparam.h:26:0 ../../Include/cryptopp/algparam.h:26: 
warning: unused variable 'cryptopp_assert_26'

from line 26 of algparam.h


../../Include/cryptopp/algparam.h:322:0 
../../Include/cryptopp/algparam.h:322: warning: unused variable 'p'

from line 322 of algparam.h


I have seen some other posts along these lines.  What should I change to get 
rid of these?


Thanks,

   Graham
