Swing+How to use generated NetBeans ProgressBar code

[comm64]

Hi, I need an example to use this code and display a progressBar:

[Rocco]

Try in this way:
create an Action, set the class that contains the method, set the method name; we'll call the action "myAction";
set the Background Task checkbox to TRUE;
set text string and tooltip string (optional);
you'll get this code:

@Action
public Task myAction() {
return new MyActionTask(org.jdesktop.application.Application.getInstance(desktopapplication1.DesktopApplication1.class));
}

private class MyActionTask extends org.jdesktop.application.Task<Object, Void> {
MyActionTask(org.jdesktop.application.Application app) {
// Runs on the EDT. Copy GUI state that
// doInBackground() depends on from parameters
// to MyActionTask fields, here.
super(app);
}
@Override protected Object doInBackground() {
// Your Task's code here. This method runs
// on a background thread, so don't reference
// the Swing GUI from here.
return null; // return your result
}
@Override protected void succeeded(Object result) {
// Runs on the EDT. Update the GUI based on
// the result computed by doInBackground().
}
}

Now, in the doInBackground() method, use the setProgress() method to manage your progress bar.

This task hould be easy, but if you face some trouble please post again.

Bye Bye.

Thanks to Rocco for good advice!

But how can I get this started automatically when the program starts?

Thanks for the answer! But it wasn't that I was looking for. Sorry!

I need a sort of 'Set Action ...' for a frame the first time.

Here I have tried to to describe the problem with the code: http://moradi.no/count/

I hope the demo herewith attached, supplied with source code as Netbeans 6.5 project, may help you.

I suggest you to go to menu Windows/Other/Application Actions, the select "startCount" action, then click on "View Source" button.

Notice that you can recall the method "startCount" from wherever you need inside the application, not only from a menu item.

[Rune Henning Johansen]

Thanks for the demo! But I was not able to run startCount at the start and see the action.

(I also got a small error: http://moradi.no/count/code-02.html)

I have been able to make a program demonstrating what I want it to do: http://moradi.no/count/code-03.html

This is not the way it should be done, but it's the only way I'm able to do it!

[Rocco]

try to modify your code as follows (in bold):

public SimpleCountView ( SingleFrameApplication app )
{
super ( app );
initComponents ();
/*
* Do a counting when the program starts.
*/
doCount (); //this doesn't work
new CountThread(); //this should work
}

[Rune Henning Johansen]

Now I am a little confused.

A call on doCount (); does work in my program. The routine simply disables a menu, changes the status and makes a call on new CountThread().

So why it doesn't work with you, I simply don't understand. And I can't see why your suggestion would help. Sorry!

But I am most interested in how to modify your code so the program starts a counting at the start.

[Rocco]

You can modify my code adding:
new StartCountTask(getApplication()).execute();

or, if you prefer, use this:
jMenuItem1.doClick(); that performs the same task.

[Rune Henning Johansen]

Your first suggestion worked, but without the progressbar running.

The second suggestion worked perfect!

Problem solved!

Thanks!
