I want to open a ProgressDialog when I click on the List Item that opens the data of the clicked Item form the Web Service. The ProgressDialog needs to be appeared till the WebContent of the clicked Item gets opened.
I know the code of using the Progress Dialog but I don't know how to dismiss it particularly.
I have heard that Handler is to be used for dismissing the Progress Dialog but I didn't found any worth example for using the Handler ultimately.
Can anybody please tell me how can I use the Handler to dismiss the Progress Dialog?
Thanks, david
Hi this is what you want
public void onClick(View v)
{
mDialog = new ProgressDialog(Home.this);
mDialog.setMessage("Please wait...");
mDialog.setCancelable(false);
mDialog.show();
new Thread(new Runnable()
{
@Override
public void run()
{
statusInquiry();
}
}).start();
}
here is the web webservice that is called
void statusInquiry()
{
try
{
//calling webservice
// after then of whole web part you will send handler a msg
mHandler.sendEmptyMessage(10);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
mHandler.sendEmptyMessage(1);
}
}
and here goes handler code
Handler mHandler = new Handler()
{
public void handleMessage(android.os.Message msg)
{
super.handleMessage(msg);
switch (msg.what)
{
case 10:
mDialog.dismiss();
break;
}
}
}
};
