Size of a directory
Hello I'm trying to get the size of a directory including all subdirectories included... Im on CFMX Cfdirectory only returns the size of whats in the directory excluding folders... Is there a UDF or tag to do this?

RE: Size of a directory
If this is on a Windows box, you could always use the FileSystemObject to access the Drives and Folders collections... CFSCRIPT fs = CreateObject(COM, Scripting.FileSystemObject); Windows = fs.GetFolder(c:\windows); WindowsSize = Windows.size; /CFSCRIPT CFOUTPUT#WindowsSize# bytes/CFOUTPUT Works like a dandy for me... I'm sure there are ways to get this using Java, but FSO is so damn fast on Windows that it's a great option to use.

Re: Size of a directory
Cool thanks - thanks a nice solution. If possible I'd like to do it without com, not being picky, I just run my code on more than one server (and more than one OS) :o) On 9/9/03 22:47, Jeff Garza [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: If this is on a Windows box, you could always use the FileSystemObject to access the Drives and Folders collections...
