NAME

Win32::DriveInfo - drives on Win32 systems

ABSTRACT

With this module you can get total/free space on Win32 drives, volume names, architecture, filesystem type, drive attributes, list of all available drives and free drive-letters. Additional function to determine Windows version info.

The intention was to have a part of Dave Roth's Win32::AdminMisc functionality on Win95/98.

The current version of Win32::DriveInfo is available at:

http://base.dux.ru/guest/fno/perl/

INSTALLATION

As this is just a plain module no special installation is needed. Just put it into /Win32 subdir somewhere in your @INC. The standard

Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

installation procedure is provided. In addition

make html

will produce the HTML-docs.

This module requires

Win32::API module by Aldo Calpini

CAVEATS

This module has been created and tested in a Win95 environment on GS port of Perl 5.004_02. As it uses Win32::API module I expect it would work fine with other ports like ActiveState if Win32::API (API.dll) is compiled for this port.

VERSION

This man page documents Win32::DriveInfo version 0.06
