Hi,

I want to be able to catch a 'disk space full' error. Is there either an exception or signal I can catch or a way of working out how much disk space is available on a disk.

I am using both GCC 2.95.3 and 3.2, on Solaris 8, HP-UX 11 and Linux machines. So if possible I would like a solution which is portalable across all these.

TIA
Ben

glibc library functions return a ENOSPC error when trying to write to a full
disk.
