B<data> is a BIO to write the content to and +B<flags> is an optional set of flags. + +The B<dcont> parameter is used in the rare case where the compressed content +is detached. It will normally be set to NULL. + +=head1 NOTES + +The only currently supported compression algorithm is zlib: if the structure +indicates the use of any other algorithm an error is returned. + +If zlib support is not compiled into OpenSSL then CMS_uncompress() will always +return an error. + +The following flags can be passed in the B<flags> parameter. + +If the B<CMS_TEXT> flag is set MIME headers for type B<text/plain> are deleted +from the content. If the content is not of type B<text/plain> then an error is +returned. + +=head1 RETURN VALUES + +CMS_uncompress() returns either 1 for success or 0 for failure. The error can +be obtained from ERR_get_error(3) + +=head1 BUGS + +The lack of single pass processing and the need to hold all data in memory as +mentioned in CMS_verify() also applies to CMS_decompress(). + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L<ERR_get_error(3)>, L<CMS_compress(3)> + +=head1 COPYRIGHT + +Copyright 2008-2016 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
