Disk Drives / Drive Space

[SmileeTiger]

I am trying to design a routine to determine the ammount of disk space and all the drives on a computer. Does anyone know of a system call designed to do this?

Hi

You can inspire yourself from a component added by AppWizard

Select menu 'Project | Add to Project | Components and Controls'

Double-click on Visual C++ Components

Double-click on item 'System Info for About Dlg.' and confirm with Ok

Now you have in the function OnInitDialog of your about box all the code required to get disk data.

Hi

I've written a sample application that shows the main data of the drives of a machine (Volume Name, Disk Capacoty, FreeSpace, Status, ..)

You can download the source code at the following address:

Select 'GetDiskData' in Visual C++ Programming Area
