This distribution contains the modules Filesys::Statfs DESCRIPTION Filesys::Statfs provides an interface between Perl and the statvs() system call. SYNOPSIS Filesys::Statfs use Filesys::Statfs; my($ftype, $bsize, $blocks, $bfree, $bavail, $files, $ffree) = statfs("/tmp"); INSTALL TO INSTALL RUN: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install For this module to install and work properly you will need to have the statfs() system call on your system. A good way to tell if you have it is to look for the sys/statfs.h header in your include directory. (Usually /usr/include/) If there is an error during the 'make', it is possible that you do not have statfs() on your system. Another possible reason may be that the statfs structure defined in statfs.h does not contain one or more of the fields that are defined in Statfs.xs. During the 'make test' test.pl will use statfs() to stat the root directory "/". If it fails it will report an error, otherwise it will report all the standard fields in the statfs structure. If you Once installed, run 'perldoc Filesys::Statfs' for more information. If you have any problems or questions please email me at IGuthrie@aol.com with "Filesys Module" in the subject line. This module will be combined with Filesys::Df in the near future to provide more user friendly information. Copyright (c) 2004 Ian Guthrie. All rights reserved.
