Working With Drives and Directories in ASP.NET

<br />
Total Size:
<asp:Label ID="lblTotalSize" runat="server" Text="Label"></asp:Label>

<br />
</div>


2. After that, we write the code on the Page_Load() event in the .cs page:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

System.IO.DriveInfo MyDrive = new System.IO.DriveInfo(@"D:\");

lblDriveName.Text = MyDrive.Name;
lblDriveFormat.Text = MyDrive.DriveFormat;
lblAvaliableFreeSpace.Text = MyDrive.AvailableFreeSpace.ToString();
lblDriveType.Text = MyDrive.DriveType.ToString();
lblTotalFreeSpace.Text = MyDrive.TotalFreeSpace.ToString();
lblTotalSize.Text=MyDrive.TotalSize.ToString();
}

Here we get the Information of the (D:\) drive. We can change the drive in:

System.IO.DriveInfo MyDrive = new System.IO.DriveInfo(@"D:\");

We can change it like this:

System.IO.DriveInfo MyDrive = new System.IO.DriveInfo(@"C:\");

In this example we get the Drive name with the Name property. Like this we can get more information such as the format of the drive, available free size etc.

The Output will Be:



Now we discuss how to get the path details of the particular path. For this use these steps:

Step 1: First we use a TextBox, where we specify the PathName:

<asp:TextBox ID="txtpathname" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>

Step 2: After that, we take some Labels and a Button to show the information regarding the path:



Step 3: Now we write the code on the OnClick Event of the Button Control in the .cs page:

protected void btnGetDetails_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
lblRootPath.Text = System.IO.Path.GetFullPath(txtpathname.Text);
lblFileName.Text = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(txtpathname.Text);
lblFileDirectory.Text = System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(txtpathname.Text);
lblExtension.Text = System.IO.Path.GetExtension(txtpathname.Text);
lblFileNameWithoutExtension.Text = System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(txtpathname.Text);
}
