How to find available free disk space?
Message 1 in thread
Hi,
I need to find the available free disk space from a multi-platform Qt
program. I haven't found a Qt based solution yet, so I am using platform
dependent calls. I can use GetDiskFreeSpaceEx() on Windows to find available
free disk space, I found solutions for some Linux variants, but I do not
know how to find it on Mac OS X.
Is there a platform independent way in Qt to find the available free disk
space?
Thank you,
Csaba

Try man statvfs on OSX.

Sorry not sure about Qt. However, use boost's filesystem library.
Cross-platform and amazing:
http://www.boost.org/libs/filesystem/doc/index.htm
The function you would use is boost::filesystem::space(Path const & p);
