You probably should really invest some time into unittesting - it's worth a lot.And it is true, i spend at least half of my time on unittests (usingRSpec http://rspec.rubyforge.org/ and RubySeleniumhttp://rubyselenium.rubyforge.org) but have a solution that works (TM)and that i can use universally afterwards - always being confidentthat it behaves the way i want it to.I am sorry that I don't have time to answer lengthy on your mail - buti have to say that wrapping your head around unittesting is worth theeffort and really rewarding in the end.ah, and controlled declaration of variables would probably kill me :|

You are right, and the answer to this simple problem is to check the result of objDrive's IsReady method, but I was talking about the question behind the question: can we determine disk free space in Ruby? > On unices, I think this does the trick: > > $ df -h `mount | grep '^/dev' | cut -f 3 -d ' '` > > Works on Linux and OS X, certainly - I don't have any other BSDs to check. As I said, I think it would be very handy to have a cross-platform way of checking disk free space from Ruby. The most useful thing to me seems a function that takes a path and returns the number of bytes available there, so that's what I posted. I tested it on a couple of Linuxes with different "df"s, so I'm not confident my solution will work across posix platforms. Cheers, Dave
