Provides TIBCO BusinessWorks with the ability to gzip/gunzip Strings directly within the BusinessWorks mapper. Particularly useful if you want to store large strings - such as XML Payloads in a database or other store but want it compressed to save space.
Works for TIBCO BusinessWorks 6.x. Built using BW 6.4.1 but should work with all previous and upcoming BW 6.x versions.
You will need to be using JRE 1.8 as it utilises java.util.zip.GZIPInputStream and java.util.zip.GZIPOutputStream
