General Setup Functions

This section summarizes the general Setup functions. Installation software can use these functions to:

• Read and process INF files.
• Determine the amount of free space required on the installation's target system.
• Move files from installation source media to media on the installation's target system, while requesting user intervention as needed.
• Create a log of files moved during an installation.

Installation software typically uses these functions in conjunction with device installation functions and PnP Configuration Manager functions.

The Setup functions listed in this section are described in detail in the Platform SDK documentation. Their purpose is to enable installation software.
