Progressbar example in android

Progress bar

In android, progress bar can be used to tell the user the task takes longer time to finish. Progress  bar displays a bar which represent how far the operations has progressed. Progress bar can be made indeterminate. In indeterminate mode, progress bar shows a cyclic animation without indication progress.

In this tutorial, I’ll show how to display a progress bar 

package com.example;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.Handler;
import android.os.Message;
import android.widget.ProgressBar;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class ProgressbarExamplActivity extends Activity {
      private ProgressBar bar;
      private TextView txt;
      protected boolean isRunning;

      /** Called when the activity is first created. */
      @Override
      public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
            setContentView(R.layout.main);
            bar=(ProgressBar)findViewById(R.id.progressBar1);
            txt=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.text);
            new Thread(new Runnable() {
                 
                  public void run() {
                        for (int i = 0; i < 20; i++) {
                              try {
                                    Thread.sleep(1000);
                                    handler.sendMessage(handler.obtainMessage());
                              } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                                    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                                    e.printStackTrace();
                              }
                        }
                        onDestroy();
                       
                  }
            }).start();

      }

     
      Handler handler=new Handler() {
            private int total;
            @Override
            public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
                  total=total+5;
                  String perc=String.valueOf(total).toString();
                  txt.setText(perc+"% completed");
                  bar.incrementProgressBy(5);
            }
      };
      protected void onDestroy() {

            super.onDestroy();
            finish();
      };

}

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    >
<TextView 
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:id="@+id/text"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="@string/hello"
    />
<ProgressBar
      style="?android:attr/progressBarStyleLarge"
      android:layout_width="wrap_content"
      android:id="@+id/progressBar1"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content">
</ProgressBar>
</LinearLayout>

Horizontal Progressbar Example

package com.example;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.Handler;
import android.os.Message;
import android.widget.ProgressBar;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class ProgressbarExamplActivity extends Activity {
      private ProgressBar bar;
      private TextView txt;
      protected boolean isRunning;

      /** Called when the activity is first created. */
      @Override
      public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
            setContentView(R.layout.main);
            bar=(ProgressBar)findViewById(R.id.progressBar2);
            txt=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.text);
            new Thread(new Runnable() {
                 
                  public void run() {
                        for (int i = 0; i < 20; i++) {
                              try {
                                    Thread.sleep(1000);
                                    handler.sendMessage(handler.obtainMessage());
                              } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                                    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                                    e.printStackTrace();
                              }
                        }
                        onDestroy();
                       
                  }
            }).start();

      }

     
      Handler handler=new Handler() {
            private int total;
            @Override
            public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
                  total=total+5;
                  String perc=String.valueOf(total).toString();
                  txt.setText(perc+"% completed");
                  bar.incrementProgressBy(5);
            }
      };
      protected void onDestroy() {

            super.onDestroy();
            finish();
      };

}

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

Coroutine- A complete tutorial

 What are coroutines? To know about coroutine, first you need to know about asynchronous programming, thread and multithreading concept. What is a thread? Thread describes in which context the function or sequence of instructions should be executed. So, every block of code or functions runs in a thread, right? Also, you can load multiple threads to perform different block of codes  How to start a thread? Thread thread = new Thread(){     public void run(){       System.out.println("This is a thread");     }   }     thread.start(); So when coming to android, before learning about coroutines we need to discuss some scenarios. Normally how an app works when user launch an application. When user launchers the application, a main thread is created. This thread is intended to do small operations like button clicks, UI interaction , small mathematical operations. We cant perform long running op...
