I am using QNetworkManager to fetch files from a server, however what I cannot figure out is if the files are compressed during the transfer with the standard gzip compression and if not how to get them to download compressed.
How would I go about checking?
I just ran a quick test by adding:
to the QNetworkRequest and the data returns what look compressed (because its ~20% smaller and unusable).
It appears that the QNetworkManager and the QNetworkReply are not intelligent as far as decompression is concerned. It looks like I have to implement a gzip and/or deflate on the returned QByteArray.
