public class BZip2CompressorOutputStream
extends CompressorOutputStream

An output stream that compresses into the BZip2 format into another stream.

The compression requires large amounts of memory. Thus you should call the close() method as soon as possible, to force BZip2CompressorOutputStream to release the allocated memory.

You can shrink the amount of allocated memory and maybe raise the compression speed by choosing a lower blocksize, which in turn may cause a lower compression ratio. You can avoid unnecessary memory allocation by avoiding using a blocksize which is bigger than the size of the input.

You can compute the memory usage for compressing by the following formula:

 <code>400k + (9 * blocksize)</code>.

To get the memory required for decompression by BZip2CompressorInputStream use

 <code>65k + (5 * blocksize)</code>.

Memory usage by blocksize
Blocksize	Compression memory usage	Decompression memory usage
100k	1300k	565k
200k	2200k	1065k
300k	3100k	1565k
400k	4000k	2065k
500k	4900k	2565k
600k	5800k	3065k
700k	6700k	3565k
800k	7600k	4065k
900k	8500k	4565k

For decompression BZip2CompressorInputStream allocates less memory if the bzipped input is smaller than one block.

Instances of this class are not threadsafe.

public BZip2CompressorOutputStream(OutputStream out)
                            throws IOException
```
    Constructs a new CBZip2OutputStream with a blocksize of 900k.
    
    Parameters:
    out - the destination stream.
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException - if an I/O error occurs in the specified stream.
    
    NullPointerException - if out == null.

                            throws IOException
```
    Constructs a new CBZip2OutputStream with specified blocksize.
    
    Parameters:
    out - the destination stream.
    blockSize - the blockSize as 100k units.
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException - if an I/O error occurs in the specified stream.
    
    IllegalArgumentException - if (blockSize < 1) || (blockSize > 9).
    
    NullPointerException - if out == null.

public static int chooseBlockSize(long inputLength)
```
    Chooses a blocksize based on the given length of the data to compress.
    
    Parameters:
    inputLength - The length of the data which will be compressed by CBZip2OutputStream.
