Convert MB to GB??

[SteevieNiteHeat]

Hi!
In my Project I have the following code to show the drive's free space in a table:

cSpFree = Drive.GetFreeSpace("C:");
cspace = Drive.GetSize("C:");
Label.SetText("cSpace", cSpFree.." MB");

BUT, being the result is in MegaBytes, how do I make it display GigaBytes if there is at least 1GB free space and MB if there is less?

Also, basically the same question for another part, Im using the following code to show the free memory:

tbMemory = System.GetMemoryInfo();
Label.SetText("MemoryFree", tbMemory.AvailableRAM.." MB");

With the same question, if I have 1GB of free memory show it in GB, but if under 1GB then show free memory in MB?

Thanks!

This is part of a sorta quick access pannel I have made for my lappy to stay on top at the top of the screen with usefull shortcuts, mostly using the NirCmd command line app that was introduced to me from a thread on this forum which has helped me no end

you need to divide the total by 1000 for gigs. Here's two ways you can do it.

cSpFree = Drive.GetFreeSpace("C:");
cspace = Drive.GetSize("C:");

GBspace=cspace/1000
GBFree = cSpFree/1000

if GBFree < 1
then
Label.SetText("cSpace", cSpFree.." MB out of "..GBspace.." free");
else

Label.SetText("cSpace", GBFree.." GB out of "..GBspace.." free");
end

or

function LeftOverMegs(Gigs,TotalMegs)
return Math.Round(TotalMegs - (Gigs*1000), 0);
end


cSpFree = Drive.GetFreeSpace("C:");
cspace = Drive.GetSize("C:");

GBspace =cspace/1000
GBFree = cSpFree/1000

TotalGigs = Math.Round(GBspace, 0);
FreeGigs = Math.Round(GBFree, 0);


TotalMegs = LeftOverMegs(TotalGigs,cspace)
FreeMegs = LeftOverMegs(FreeGigs,cSpFree)



Label.SetText("cSpace", FreeGigs.."GB and "..FreeMegs.."MB out of "..TotalGigs.."GB and "..TotalMegs.."MB free");

You should be able to adjust this to your needs.

Brilliant, thank you so much for your reply :-)

Glad I could help

Divide by 1024, not 1000.
(ie. 1 gigabyte = 1024 megabytes)

Doh, my bad. Thanks for catching that mystica. Not sure where my brain went to there..........

Didn't anyone think of String.GetFormattedSize?

[Scriptonite]

of course not, that's the easy way. That would have been simpler, but then i would have never been able to write that out in wrong division...........
