using AsyncTask class for parallel operationand displaying a progress bar
- by Kumar
I am displaying a progress bar using Async task class and simulatneously in parallel operation , i want to retrieve a string array from a function of another class that takes some time to return the string array.
The problem is that when i place the function call in doing backgroung function of AsyncTask class , it gives an error in Doing Background and gives the message as cant change the UI in doing Background ..
Therefore , i placed the function call in post Execute method of Asynctask class . It doesnot give an error but after the progress bar has reached 100% , then the screen goes black and takes some time to start the new activity.
How can i display the progress bar and make the function call simultaneously.??plz help , m in distress
here is the code
package com.integrated.mpr;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.ProgressDialog;
import android.content.Intent;

import android.os.Handler;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Button;
public class Progess extends Activity implements OnClickListener{
static String[] display = new String[Choose.n];
Button bprogress;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.progress);
bprogress = (Button) findViewById(R.id.bProgress);

}
@Override
