  • Get Directory Size in .Net

    Here is a code snippet that someone else might find helpful. Also if anyone else knows a better way to do this please let me know.

    /// Returns the size of the directory in bytes
    public static long Size(System.IO.DirectoryInfo dirInfo)
    {
      long total = 0;
    
      foreach(System.IO.FileInfo file in dirInfo.GetFiles())
        total += file.Length;
      
      foreach(System.IO.DirectoryInfo dir in dirInfo.GetDirectories())
        total += Size(dir);
    
      return total;
    }
