AddBuffers

Changes the number of buffers for a filesystem

Declaration

Source position: amigados.pas line 2323

function AddBuffers(

const DeviceName: PChar;

NumbBuffers: LongInt

):LongBool;

`DeviceName`		DOS device name (with trailing ':').
`NumbBuffers`		Number of buffers to add. May be negative for decreasing.

Add or remove cache memory to/from a filesystem. The amount of memory per cache buffer and the limit depends on the filesystem.

Some old filesystems return the actual buffer size. See the example for a workaround for that case.

Snippet

Res1 := AddBuffers('df0:', 10);
Res2 := IoErr();
if (res1 <> DosFalse) and (res1 <> DosTrue) then
begin
  Res2 := Res1;
  Res1 := DosTrue;
end;
