Determine Amount of Free Space on a Drive
When installing software to a user's system, it is useful to ensure that the user's system has enough free space on their hard drive to accommodate the software.
To accomplish this in AutoPlay Media Studio:
1. Insert the following code into any event in your application:
--space required, in megabytes space_required = 253
--get free space on the user's system (c:\ drive) space_available = Drive.GetFreeSpace("C:");
--compare free space available to free space required if space_required > space_available then
Dialog.Message("","You are "..(space_required - space_available).." MB short");
else
Dialog.Message("","You have "..(space_available - space_required).." MB more than you need");
end
Note: The variable space_required must be set by you. 253 is an arbitrary number.
