Description

When creating a spanned zip file , the FirstDiskFreeSpace property allows you to instruct the library to leave a specified amount (in bytes) of free space on the first disk of the set.

The default value for this property is 0, which means that if possible, all the available space on the first disk will be filled by the spanned zip file.

Data type

Long Integer

Possible values

0 to 4294967295 (or 0 to 2147483647 for languages with signed long integers such as VB)

Default value

0

Declaration (DLL API)  

DWORD XzGetFirstDiskFreeSpace( HXCEEDZIP hZip );

void XzSetFirstDiskFreeSpace( HXCEEDZIP hZip, DWORD dwValue );

Remarks

The disk may appear to have slightly more free disk space than the amount specified in this property due to disk space reporting quantization.
