SetupAddInstallSectionToDiskSpaceListA function (setupapi.h)
[This function is available for use in the operating systems indicated in the Requirements section. It may be altered or unavailable in subsequent versions. SetupAPI should no longer be used for installing applications. Instead, use the Windows Installer for developing application installers. SetupAPI continues to be used for installing device drivers.]
The SetupAddInstallSectionToDiskSpaceList function searches for CopyFile and DelFile lines in an Install section of an INF file. The function then adds the file operations specified in those sections to a disk-space list.

If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.
Remarks
This function requires a Windows INF file. Some older INF file formats may not be supported.
Note
The setupapi.h header defines SetupAddInstallSectionToDiskSpaceList as an alias which automatically selects the ANSI or Unicode version of this function based on the definition of the UNICODE preprocessor constant. Mixing usage of the encoding-neutral alias with code that not encoding-neutral can lead to mismatches that result in compilation or runtime errors. For more information, see Conventions for Function Prototypes.
