Disk space

Post by milhouse »

Hi!

Is there a way for me to use the content of a static text (Destination folder dialog) in a variable?
The "Required Disk Space" and "Remaining disk Space" works perfectly.
I want to use those values in my MSI code so i can throw a messagebox if there is not enough space left.

I have more than 15 features, so "get component space" will be my last option.

Is this doable?

Dear milhouse,


With dialog rules that set the value of an edit control to a static label field, and if the edit control is set to write the value it receives to a variable, this would be possible; but why not use MSIcode?

If you use "Get Total Required Space" command you receive the same value.

Probably I missed something.
