I did a search in the help file for attributesOfFileSystemForPath:error: but could not find it

It won't be in the PureBasic help file, it's Cocoa.

Okay I tried this but I keep getting 0 bytes back

Global attr = CocoaMessage(0, CocoaMessage(0, 0, "NSFM"), "attributesOfFileSystemForPath:error")
bytesFree=CocoaMessage(0,attr,"objectForKey:NSFileSystemFreeSize")

Code: Select all

Define FreeSize.q
Define FileManager = CocoaMessage(0, 0, "NSFileManager defaultManager")
Define Attributes = CocoaMessage(0, FileManager, "attributesOfFileSystemForPath:$", @"/", "error:", #nil)
CocoaMessage(@FreeSize, CocoaMessage(0, Attributes, "objectForKey:$", @"NSFileSystemFreeSize"), "longLongValue")

Debug FreeSize
