问题
Anyone knows other way to get a directoy's size, than calculate it's size by counting file with file? I'm interested on some win32 API function. I've google it about this, but i didn't found relevant information so i'm asking here.
PS: I know how to calculate a directory size by using findfirst and findnext and sum all file's size.
回答1:
Getting the size of one directory is a pretty big problem, mostly because it's something you can't define. Examples of problems:
- Some filesystems, including NTFS and most filesystems on Linux support the notion of "hard links". That is, the very same file may show up in multiple places. Soft links (reparse points) pose the same problem.
- Windows allows mounting of file systems to directories. Example: "C:\DriveD" might be the same thing as "D:\".
- Do you want the file size on disk or the actual size of the file?
- Do you care about actual DIRECTORY entries? They also take up space!
- What do you do with files you don't have access to? Or directories you don't have permission to browse? Do you count those?
Taking all this into account means the only possible implementation is a recursive implementation. You can write your own or hope you find a ready-written one, but the end performance would be the same.

I don't think there's an API for this. I don't think Windows knows the answer. i.e. it would have to recursively search the tree and summarize each folder, using the technique that Marcelo indicated.
If there were such an API call available, then other things would use it too and Windows would be able to immediately tell you folder sizes.

I already had a function to list files of a folder (and subfolders) and one to read the file size. So, I only wrote a small procedure that puts these two together.
ListFilesOf
function ListFilesOf(CONST aFolder, FileType: string; CONST ReturnFullPath, DigSubdirectories: Boolean): TTSL;
{ If DigSubdirectories is false, it will return only the top level files,
else it will return also the files in subdirectories of subdirectories.
If FullPath is true the returned files will have full path.
FileType can be something like '*.*' or '*.exe;*.bin'
Will show also the Hidden/System files.

function GetFileSize(const aFilename: String): Int64;
VAR
info: TWin32FileAttributeData;
begin

then Result:= Int64(info.nFileSizeLow) or Int64(info.nFileSizeHigh shl 32)
else Result:= -1;
end;
Finally:
function GetFolderSize(aFolder: string; FileType: string= '*.*'; DigSubdirectories: Boolean= TRUE): Int64;
VAR
i: Integer;
TSL: TTSL;
begin
Result:= 0;
TSL:= ListFilesOf(aFolder, FileType, TRUE, DigSubdirectories);
TRY
for i:= 0 to TSL.Count-1 DO
Result:= Result+ GetFileSize(TSL[i]);
FINALLY
FreeAndNil(TSL);
END;
end;
Note that:
1. You can only count the size of some file types in a folder. For example in a folder containing BMP and JPEG files, if you want/need, you can only obtain the folder size only for BMP files.
2. Multiple filetypes are supported, like this: '.bmp;.png'.
3. You can choose if you want to read or not rea the size of the sub-folders.
Further improvements: You can massively reduce the size of the code by eliminating the GetFolderSize and moving the GetFileSize directly into ListFilesOf.
Guaranteed to work on Delphi XE7.
回答4:
If you already know how to do another level, just use recursion to get every level. As your function traverses the current directory, if it comes across subdirectory, call the function recursively to get the size of that subdirectory.
回答5:
You can use FindFile component. It will recursive the directories for you.

回答6:
Many of the previous examples of recurring find first and find next implementations do not consider the larger file capacities. Those examples do not produce correct results. A recursion routine that accommodates larger file capacities is available.
