Can one use Python 3.4 lzma library to initialize file_reader for a 7z file?

[Anmol Dalmia]

Hello all.

I am trying to read lines from a compressed xml file in a 7z format contained archive. The native lzma library of Python 3.4 allows to do so, but I am not sure it does so for 7z files. I explored many threads and found very unsatisfactory answers such as this one.

Can anyone please clear this out to me once? Or if it doesn't, can anyone help on how to do it using any python or wrapped C functions?

Thanks
