DriveSpace for network drives
Does DriveSpace work for network drives? It seems broken to me. I can get drivespace fine from a local drive, but when I pass in a UNC name, I get nuttin.

From this thread http://forums.winamp.com/showthread....ght=DriveSpace , I see that it apprears someone was using it to some degree, but I don't understand enough, I guess.

Here is where I am right now...

StrCpy $TransPath "$TransPath\Translator\"
;${GetRoot} "$TransPath" $TransPath
StrCpy $R1 "$TransPath"
System::Call '${sysGetDiskFreeSpaceEx}(t) i (r1,.r2,,.).r3'
MessageBox MB_OK "Translator path is $TransPath ($R2, $R3)"
${DriveSpace} "$TransPath" "/D=F /S=K" $TransFree
SectionGetSize ${tr} $TransSize
DetailPrint "Installing $TransSize bytes to $TransPath ($TransFree bytes free)"
MessageBox MB_OK "Translator path is $TransPath"
${DriveSpace} "D:\" "/D=F /S=K" $TransFree
DetailPrint "Installing $TransSize bytes to $TransPath ($TransFree bytes free)"
MessageBox MB_OK "Translator is $TransSize, $TransFree free"

Thanks,

-Kevin

Well, I have this one licked.

!define sysGetDiskFreeSpaceEx 'kernel32::GetDiskFreeSpaceExA(t, *l, *l, *l) i'

StrCpy $1 "$TransPath"
System::Call '${sysGetDiskFreeSpaceEx}(r1,.,,.r2)'
; convert the large integer byte values into managable kb
System::Int64Op $2 / 1024
Pop $2

A good replacement for the DriveSpace call..
