INSTALL
TO INSTALL RUN:
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install
During the 'make test', test.pl will try to test with '/' and then
open test.pl in the current directory and use that for the filehandle
test.
Once installed, run 'perldoc Filesys::Statvfs' for more information.
If you have any problems or questions please email me at
[email protected]
with "Filesys::Statvfs" in the subject line. If you run into a build problem,
please include the output of the install commands, the version of Perl
you are using (perl -v), and what operating system you are using.
Module Documentation:
Filesys::Statvfs - Perl extension for statvfs() and fstatvfs()
SYNOPSIS
use Filesys::Statvfs;
my($bsize, $frsize, $blocks, $bfree, $bavail,
$files, $ffree, $favail, $flag, $namemax) = statvfs("/tmp");
#### Pass an open filehandle. Verify that fileno() returns a defined
#### value. If you pass undef to fstatvfs you will get unexpected results
my $fd = fileno(FILE_HANDLE);
if(defined($fd)) {
($bsize, $frsize, $blocks, $bfree, $bavail,
$files, $ffree, $favail, $flag, $namemax) = fstatvfs($fd);
}
DESCRIPTION
Interface for statvfs() and fstatvfs()
Unless you need access to the bsize, flag, and namemax values,
you should probably look at using Filesys::DfPortable or
Filesys::Df instead. They will generally provide you with more
functionality and portability.
The module should work with all flavors of Unix that implement the
statvfs() and fstatvfs() calls. This would include Linux, *BSD,
HP-UX, AIX, Solaris, Mac OS X, Irix, Cygwin, etc ...
The statvfs() and fstatvfs() functions will return a list of
values, or will return undef and set $! if there was an error.
The values returned are described in the statvfs/fstatvfs header or
the statvfs()/fstatvfs() man page.
The module assumes that if you have statvfs(), fstatvfs() will
also be available.
