View Full Version : Prompt for disk space recalculation?

We have a setup project where we don't (normally) show the feature list to the user, but instead set feature states based on their system configuration. We've seen that when the Select Feature dialog is skipped, the Disk Space Required value on the Ready To Install dialog is not correct. It is a really low number, or often 0. If we go back and take the route where the Features window is displayed, but don't change anything, then the Disk Space requirement is properly calculated on the Ready To Install page.

Is there a way to prompt the installer to recalculate Disk Space Required when the Features page is not displayed?

Mark,

Good question. We have to check this and I'll get back to you ASAP.

Mark,

There is definitely an issue with the required disk-space calculation when the "Custom Setup" dialog is not displayed and you programmatically enable/disable Features. Ticket open and item in review.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. It will be fixed in the next maintenance build.

The old method to calculate the Features size was no powerful enough after adding the new "Set Feature State..." script function. Changed now.

CHANGE : [SB#4-08191] Add new function to re-calculate the required disk-space when a Feature is programmatically enabled or disabled via the "Set Feature State..." script function.

Thanks again for the report.
