I would like to encode/decode some text with deflate/gzip, but I'm having trouble. Decoding values from a rawConnection is fairly straightforward, but I'm having trouble encoding values and then retrieving them.
gz_out <- gzcon(raw_out <- rawConnection(raw(0),open="wb"))
writeLines("test",con=gz_out)
flush(gz_out)
rawConnectionValue(raw_out)
Error: cannot allocate vector of size 131069.2 Gb
