    Deprecated.
    Use freeSpaceKb(String) Deprecated from 1.3, may be removed in 2.0
    Returns the free space on a drive or volume by invoking the command line. This method does not normalize the result, and typically returns bytes on Windows, 512 byte units on OS X and kilobytes on Unix. As this is not very useful, this method is deprecated in favour of freeSpaceKb(String) which returns a result in kilobytes.
    Note that some OS's are NOT currently supported, including OS/390, OpenVMS.
    FileSystemUtils.freeSpace("C:"); // Windows FileSystemUtils.freeSpace("/volume"); // *nix
    The free space is calculated via the command line. It uses 'dir /-c' on Windows and 'df' on *nix.
    Parameters:
    
    path - the path to get free space for, not null, not empty on Unix
    
    Returns:
    
    the amount of free drive space on the drive or volume
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the path is invalid
    
    java.lang.IllegalStateException - if an error occurred in initialisation
    
    java.io.IOException - if an error occurs when finding the free space
    
    Since:

@Deprecated
public static long freeSpaceKb(java.lang.String path)

```
    Deprecated.
    As of 2.6 deprecated without replacement. Please use FileStore.getUsableSpace().
    Returns the free space on a drive or volume in kibibytes (1024 bytes) by invoking the command line.
    FileSystemUtils.freeSpaceKb("C:"); // Windows FileSystemUtils.freeSpaceKb("/volume"); // *nix
    The free space is calculated via the command line. It uses 'dir /-c' on Windows, 'df -kP' on AIX/HP-UX and 'df -k' on other Unix.
    In order to work, you must be running Windows, or have a implementation of Unix df that supports GNU format when passed -k (or -kP). If you are going to rely on this code, please check that it works on your OS by running some simple tests to compare the command line with the output from this class. If your operating system isn't supported, please raise a JIRA call detailing the exact result from df -k and as much other detail as possible, thanks.
    Parameters:
    
    path - the path to get free space for, not null, not empty on Unix
    
    Returns:
    
    the amount of free drive space on the drive or volume in kilobytes
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the path is invalid
    
    java.lang.IllegalStateException - if an error occurred in initialisation
    
    java.io.IOException - if an error occurs when finding the free space
