I did a little test about isal_deflate_set_dict, the test looks below: (small change of igzip/igzip_example.c)

}

I used this test to compress the same data, the only difference is isal_deflate_set_dict.
When using dictionary, the result looks below:

On the other hand, the result looks below:

Therefore, the zlib header is the same in both cases. I don't think that's correct, since the zlib header should contains the dictionary message.

Does isa-l deflater don't write the zlib header correctly when using dictionary?
