ProgressMonitorDialog question/feature request [message #325048] Thu, 07 February 2008 00:50 Go to next message

I use ProgressMonitorDialog for a task that requires waiting for response
from a remote server, so I want the progress bar to show "indeterminate"
progress (like ProgressBar(x, SWT.INDETERMINATE)).

Is there a way to do that?

I tried monitor.beginTask("xxxx", IProgressMonitor.UNKNOWN), but that just
shows a disabled, grayed out progress bar...

Thank you!

For me "beginTask" with "IProgressMonitor.UNKNOWN" works. Maybe there is an
other problem?

Hi Arne,

When you say that it works for you, what do you see, exactly?
I am using Windows XP SP2, Eclipse 3.3, BTW.

Thank you!

Just to be clear, I expect the progress bar to show the "unknown progress"
animation, where it goes back and forth. Instead, I get a disabled, grayed
out bar, which looks like the program got "stuck".


Here's the code snippet:


// Get data from server
ProgressMonitorDialog pdm = new ProgressMonitorDialog(activeShell);

try {
pdm.run(true, false, new IRunnableWithProgress() {
public void run(IProgressMonitor monitor) throws
InvocationTargetException, InterruptedException {

monitor.beginTask("Getting data from server.",
IProgressMonitor.UNKNOWN);
monitor.subTask("Contacting server.");
monitor.worked(IProgressMonitor.UNKNOWN);
Thread.sleep(20000);
}
});
}
catch (InvocationTargetException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
catch (InterruptedException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}

Not entirely sure it'll solve your problem, but there is probably no
need to call monitor.worked for an unknown task - just call monitor.done
when you are finished, and in the meantime the progress display should
indicate that work is being done.

Marcel,

Thank you so much for replying. I tried deleting the call to
monitor.worked, and other permutations (calling worked(10), etc.), to no
avail - no animation, just a grayed out bar.

Would you mind running the code below on your computer to see if you get a
different behavior?

Thank you,
Oleg
