#33 unable to decode created exi file
Using the EXIficient GUI, with Alignment set to "COMPRESSED" I can create an exi file from the attached XML. However it is unable to decode the created file back into XML, getting an error message about "invalid stored block lengths".
I have tried decoding the generated EXI file using the OpenEXI library and it works there, so I think the generated EXI file is ok, and it is probably a problem with the way EXIficient is decoding it.

In case it matters: I also get errors when I try to decode this file my own java code. I'm using EXIficient 0.9.4. I've run about 50 other files though with no problems.
Hi,
I can confirm the issue in GUI and library.
It seems to be the case that in some very rare cases the deflate process seems to add additional bytes. The EXIficient decoder did not handle this properly.
Now both, the GUI and the library (source code) has been updated.
Note: The idea behind Java Web Start is that the library gets updated out-of-the box. In my case it did not work (or maybe I did not wait enough). Anyhow, launching exificient.sourceforge.net/exificient.jnlp once again noticed the update (You should see "EXIficient (0.9.5-SNAPHSOT)" as title).
Please let me know whether the fix works for you as well.

I can confirm the GUI is now working for that file.
Thank you.
Great!
