Available space left on drive - WinAPI - Windows CE

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/140117

Question

I've forgotten the WinAPI call to find out how much space is remaining on a particular drive and pinvoke.net isn't giving me any love. It's compact framework by the way, so I figure coredll.dll.

Can anyone with a better memory jog mine?

Was it helpful?

Solution

GetDiskFreeSpaceEx. That links to pinvoke.net's desktop page; simply replace kernel32 with coredll.

Unfortunately System.IO.DriveInfo is not present on Compact Framework. It doesn't quite fit with Windows CE's Unix-style singly-rooted tree.
