ProgresBar
ProgressBar is a Visual indicator of progress in some operation. Displays a bar to the user representing how far the operation has progressed; the application can change the amount of progress (modifying the length of the bar) as it moves forward. There is also a secondary progress displayable on a progress bar which is useful for displaying intermediate progress, such as the buffer level during a streaming playback progress bar.
Progress Bar Example
In this example I have shown the progress while downloading a file.We can also customize a progress bar to make it more beautiful

main..xml
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<TextView
android:id="@+id/textView2"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="40dp"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
android:textSize="25dp"
android:text="Progress Bar Example" />
<Button
android:id="@+id/button1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="30dp"
android:onClick="startProgressDialog"
android:text="Start Downloading File" />
</LinearLayout>
Note: To add a progress bar to a layout file, you can use the
<ProgressBar> element.
By default, the progress bar is a spinning wheel (an indeterminate indicator). To change to a
horizontal progress bar, apply the Widget.ProgressBar.Horizontal style, like so:
ProgressBarActivity.java
public class ProgressBarActivity extends Activity
{
Button btnStartProgress;
ProgressDialog progressBar;
private int progressBarStatus = 0;
private Handler progressBarHandler = new Handler();
private long fileSize = 0;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
}
public void startProgressDialog(View V)
{
// prepare for a progress bar dialog
progressBar = new ProgressDialog(V.getContext());
progressBar.setCancelable(true);
progressBar.setMessage("Downloading File...");
progressBar.setProgressStyle(ProgressDialog.STYLE_HORIZONTAL);
progressBar.setProgress(0);
progressBar.setMax(100);
progressBar.show();
//reset progress bar status
progressBarStatus = 0;
//reset filesize
fileSize = 0;
new Thread(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
while (progressBarStatus < 100) {
// process some tasks
progressBarStatus = fileDownloadStatus();
// sleep 1 second to show the progress
try {
Thread.sleep(1000);
}
catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
// Update the progress bar
progressBarHandler.post(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
progressBar.setProgress(progressBarStatus);
}
});
}
// when, file is downloaded 100%,
if (progressBarStatus >= 100) {
// sleep 2 seconds, so that you can see the 100% of file download
try {
Thread.sleep(2000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
// close the progress bar dialog
progressBar.dismiss();
}
}
}).start();
}
//method returns the % of file downloaded
public int fileDownloadStatus()
{
while (fileSize <= 1000000) {
fileSize++;
if (fileSize == 100000) {
return 10;
} else if (fileSize == 200000) {
return 20;
} else if (fileSize == 300000) {
return 30;
} else if (fileSize == 400000) {
return 40;
} else if (fileSize == 500000) {
return 50;
} else if (fileSize == 600000) {
return 60;
}
// write your code here
}
return 100;
}
