Class ProgressBar


public class ProgressBar
extends Progress

The ProgressBar is typically used to display the progress of a long running operation. It provides a visual clue that processing is underway. The ProgressBar can be used in two different modes: percentage mode and activity mode.

When an application can determine how much work needs to take place (e.g. read a fixed number of bytes from a file) and can monitor its progress, it can use the ProgressBar in percentage mode and the user sees a growing bar indicating the percentage of the work that has been completed. In this mode, the application is required to call setFraction(double) periodically to update the progress bar.

When an application has no accurate way of knowing the amount of work to do, it can use the ProgressBar in activity mode, which shows activity by a block moving back and forth within the progress area. In this mode, the application is required to call pulse() periodically to update the progress bar.

There is quite a bit of flexibility provided to control the appearance of the ProgressBar. Functions are provided to control the orientation of the bar, optional text can be displayed along with the bar, and the step size used in activity mode can be set.

Constructor Details

ProgressBar

public ProgressBar()

Deprecated. Superceeded by java-gnome 4.0; a method along these lines may well exist in the new bindings, but if it does it likely has a different name or signature due to the shift to an algorithmic mapping of the underlying native libraries.

Constructs a new ProgressBar widget

ProgressBar

public ProgressBar(Handle handle)

Deprecated. Superceeded by java-gnome 4.0; a method along these lines may well exist in the new bindings, but if it does it likely has a different name or signature due to the shift to an algorithmic mapping of the underlying native libraries.

Construct a new ProgressBar passing a handle to a native widget resource.
Parameters:
handle - The handle to the native ProgressBar.

Method Details

getEllipsize

public EllipsizeMode getEllipsize()

Deprecated. Superceeded by java-gnome 4.0; a method along these lines may well exist in the new bindings, but if it does it likely has a different name or signature due to the shift to an algorithmic mapping of the underlying native libraries.

Returns the ellipsizing position.
Since:
2.6

getFraction

public double getFraction()

Deprecated. Superceeded by java-gnome 4.0; a method along these lines may well exist in the new bindings, but if it does it likely has a different name or signature due to the shift to an algorithmic mapping of the underlying native libraries.

Returns the current value of the display. This value will be returned as a value between 0.0 and 1.0.

getProgressBar

public static ProgressBar getProgressBar(Handle handle)

Deprecated. Superceeded by java-gnome 4.0; a method along these lines may well exist in the new bindings, but if it does it likely has a different name or signature due to the shift to an algorithmic mapping of the underlying native libraries.

Internal static factory method to be used by Java-Gnome only.

getType

public static Type getType()

Deprecated. Superceeded by java-gnome 4.0; a method along these lines may well exist in the new bindings, but if it does it likely has a different name or signature due to the shift to an algorithmic mapping of the underlying native libraries.

Retrieve the runtime type used by the GLib library.
Overrides:
getType in interface Widget

pulse

public void pulse()

Deprecated. Superceeded by java-gnome 4.0; a method along these lines may well exist in the new bindings, but if it does it likely has a different name or signature due to the shift to an algorithmic mapping of the underlying native libraries.


setEllipsize

public void setEllipsize(EllipsizeMode mode)

Deprecated. Superceeded by java-gnome 4.0; a method along these lines may well exist in the new bindings, but if it does it likely has a different name or signature due to the shift to an algorithmic mapping of the underlying native libraries.

setFraction

public void setFraction(double fraction)

Deprecated. Superceeded by java-gnome 4.0; a method along these lines may well exist in the new bindings, but if it does it likely has a different name or signature due to the shift to an algorithmic mapping of the underlying native libraries.

Causes the progress bar to "fill in" the given fraction of the bar. The fraction should be between 0.0 and 1.0, inclusive. Any value less than 0.0 will be considered as 0.0, and any value bigger than 1.0 will be considered as 1.0. The reason why this is done is because Java has a strict implementation of doubles and floats, and sometimes that can cause unwanted rounding of numbers.

For example, you may think '0.9 + 0.1 = 1.0', but the fact is that could actually result in 1.00001, or anything like that.
Parameters:
fraction - The fraction of the progress bar which should be filled in

setOrientation

public void setOrientation(ProgressBarOrientation orientation)

Deprecated. Superceeded by java-gnome 4.0; a method along these lines may well exist in the new bindings, but if it does it likely has a different name or signature due to the shift to an algorithmic mapping of the underlying native libraries.

Causes the progress bar to switch to a different orientation (left-to-right, right-to-left, top-to-bottom, or bottom-to-top).

setPulseStep

public void setPulseStep(double fraction)

Deprecated. Superceeded by java-gnome 4.0; a method along these lines may well exist in the new bindings, but if it does it likely has a different name or signature due to the shift to an algorithmic mapping of the underlying native libraries.

Parameters:
fraction - fraction between 0.0 and 1.0

setText

Deprecated. Superceeded by java-gnome 4.0; a method along these lines may well exist in the new bindings, but if it does it likely has a different name or signature due to the shift to an algorithmic mapping of the underlying native libraries.

Causes the given text to appear superimposed on the progress bar.
Parameters:
