folder size

[ken gray]

is there a way to get folder size like there is for files?
this keeps coming up "0".

Code:

Copy      Help

Dir d
foreach(d "C:\*" FE_Dir 0x1)
,str sPath=d.FileName(1)
,out sPath
,int s_ize=d.FileSize
,out s_ize

Code:

Copy      Help

Wsh.FileSystemObject fso._create
Wsh.Folder f=fso.GetFolder(_s.expandpath("$desktop$"))
long i=f.Size
out i

Or calculate sum of all files.

It used to work.

I tried it today (2.3.1.3) it aborts with real time error "0x80020008, Bad variable type".

I understand the variable type is now changed to double?

Bug in VARIANT to long conversion in QM 2.3.1. Will be fixed in 2.3.1.5. Thank you.

For this purpose QM also has function GetFileOrFolderSize.

Gintaras,

Thanks. Yes as a matter of principle I use GetFileOrFolderSize, except in one unique macro where I used GetFolder property.
