Q.

I have an entry such as data:/temp. I have been able to set the space limit by using

addElement(String user, int limit)

But I cannot figure out the limit, since if I put the maximum of the int parameter, I only get a 200MB space limit. Do you know how the limit works to pass the right size for space limit?

A.

The formula for setting space limit works out as follows:

totalSpaceSet  =  bytesPerSector * sectorsPerCluster * totalBlocks;
where totalBlocks = (int) valuepassed / (bytesPerSector * sectorsPerCluster).
