    DiskNotEmpty event
    In This Topic

    Description

    The DiskNotEmpty event is triggered when creating a spanned zip file and a non-empty disk is present or inserted into the removable media drive. This event is triggered only once per disk, right after the disk was requested by the InsertDisk event, but before writing any data to the disk.

    The DiskNotEmpty event gives the host application a chance to perform various actions which might be necessary when a non-empty disk is present in the drive. The xAction parameter can be used when standard default actions to be taken (see below), or you may provide code for this event which performs custom actions. For example, you may want to create a separate "readme.txt" file or other data files on the disk before the actual zip file fills the disk space.
