Hi @mmuthukrishnan95 , thanks for contributing this PR.

Before we approve, can you add a test that fails on the old snappy lib, and succeeds on the new version? The current tests don't catch this error.

If you were trying to ping Zach Tellman by @-ing zac1st1k, that's not him 😄 .

But regardless, Zach has long since moved on from byte-transforms and the whole Clojure community, so we don't usually involve him unless he's the only person on the planet who knows the answer to something.

Don't worry about the CI failure, since it's for deploying to clojars. Last deploy was 3 years ago, so it might have bitrotted.

@KingMob I can certainly write the new test cases for this. However, before proceeding, could you publish a dummy version of my changes and share the version details with me? This will allow me to verify the changes locally before finalizing the test cases.

No need to publish globally.

If you need a different version of byte-transforms for testing in another project, you can update the byte-transforms version in project.clj to "0.2.2-SNAPSHOT" and run lein install, which will add it to your local maven lib (usually ~/.m2/). Then, in the other project, you'll depend on version "0.2.2-SNAPSHOT", which will use the local maven version.

If you want to override the version used, with leiningen, you can put [org.xerial.snappy/snappy-java "1.1.10.7"] ahead of the byte-streams dep, and it'll take precedence when resolving.

You can check what versions are ultimately used with lein deps :tree, lein deps :why, and lein classpath.

If you're using tools.deps, the resolution process is different, because it prioritizes newer versions, but you should still be able to override it for newer versions. Verification commands are clj -X:deps list and clj -X:deps tree.
