B4J Question How do I get to the DiskUtil lib?

[rfresh]

How do I get to the DiskUtil lib? I don't see it in the Libraries Manager tab.

Do you mean this one? https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/disk-space-utils.47520/post-294230

Yes but I'm trying to find out where to put it so I can access it?

 

[stevel05]

I haven't tried it, but it says it's a code module. So unzip the file and you should have a .bas file which you can load using Project/Add Existing Module or drag and drop it from the file explorer onto the Modules tab.

Sorry, no, not that one, this one: JDiskutil

But that one only has a .jar file and an .xml file. I don't know what I need to do with one or both of them to access its methods?

Simply copy both files into your AdditionalLibraries\B4J folder.
You may have a look HERE.

Moved to the questions forum. You should never post questions in any other forum.

Got it. Thanks Klaus.

I'm able to get the disk serial number to display OK using Log() with this line:

    Dim diskserial As DiskUtil
    diskserial.Initialize("DiskSerial")
    Log("diskserial " & diskserial.getSerialNumber("c:\"))

But when my project runs, I also see this in the Log window:

java.lang.Exception: Sub diskserial_result was not found.

So the lib is raising an Event for which you did not use a Eventsub.
Check the library for the exact signature needed for the sub diskserial_result

There is only a .jar file and an .xml file. I did not find the string "diskserial_result" in the .xml file.

"discserial" is the Eventprefix YOU DID SET

From the XML

<event>result(Successful As Boolean, DriveSerial as String)</event>
<event>drives(Successful As boolean, DriveNames() As Object)</event>

create the missing Event sub

sub discserial_result(Successful As Boolean, DriveSerial as String)
End sub

Thank you...
