progress of the task to the user. This is a good User Experience practice. In this tutorial i will be discussing the implementation of a processprogress dialog. As an example, i am displaying a progress bar that runs while the app downloads an image from the web. And once the image is downloaded completely i am showing the image in a image view. You could modify this example and try it with any file type you may wish. That could be fun!

Creating new Project


1. Create a new project and fill all the details. File New Android Project 2. Open your main.xml are create a button to show download progress bar. Also define a ImageView to show downloaded image. Paste the following code in your main.xml

main.xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:orientation="vertical" > <!-- Download Button --> <Button android:id="@+id/btnProgressBar" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Download File with Progress Bar" android:layout_marginTop="50dip"/> <!-- Image view to show image after downloading --> <ImageView android:id="@+id/my_image" android:layout_width="fill_parent"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"/> </LinearLayout> 3. Now in your main activity class import necessary classes and buttons. I am starting a new asynctask to download the file after clicking on show progress bar button. public class AndroidDownloadFileByProgressBarActivity extends Activity { // button to show progress dialog Button btnShowProgress // Progress Dialog private ProgressDialog pDialog; // Progress dialog type (0 - for Horizontal progress bar) public static final int progress_bar_type = 0;

// File url to download private static String file_url = "http://api.androidhive.info/progressdialog/hive.jpg @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); // show progress bar button btnShowProgress = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnProgressBar); // Image view to show image after downloading my_image = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.my_image); /** * Show Progress bar click event * */ btnShowProgress.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { // starting new Async Task new DownloadFileFromURL().execute(file_url); } }); } 4. Progress Dialog can be shown using ProgressDialog class. It is a subclass of normal AlertDialog class. So add an alert method in your main activity class. /** * Showing Dialog * */ @Override protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id) {

switch (id) { case progress_bar_type: pDialog = new ProgressDialog(this); pDialog.setMessage("Downloading file. Please wait..."); pDialog.setIndeterminate(false); pDialog.setMax(100); pDialog.setProgressStyle(ProgressDialog.STYLE_HORIZONTAL); pDialog.setCancelable(true); pDialog.show(); return pDialog; default: return null; } } 5. Now we need to add our Async Background thread to download file from url. In your main activity add a asynctask class and name it as DownloadFileFromURL(). After downloading image from the web i am reading the downloaded image from the sdcard and displaying in a imageview. /** * Background Async Task to download file * */ class DownloadFileFromURL extends AsyncTask<String, String, String> { /** * Before starting background thread * Show Progress Bar Dialog * */ @Override protected void onPreExecute() { super.onPreExecute(); showDialog(progress_bar_type); } /** * Downloading file in background thread * */ @Override protected String doInBackground(String... f_url) { int count; try { URL url = new URL(f_url[0]); URLConnection conection = url.openConnection(); conection.connect(); // getting file length int lenghtOfFile = conection.getContentLength(); // input stream to read file - with 8k buffer InputStream input = new BufferedInputStream(url.openStream(), 8192); // Output stream to write file OutputStream output = new FileOutputStream("/sdcard/downloadedfile.jpg" byte data[] = new byte[1024];

// Displaying downloaded image into image view // Reading image path from sdcard String imagePath = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString() + "/downl // setting downloaded into image view my_image.setImageDrawable(Drawable.createFromPath(imagePath)); } } 6. Open your AndroidManifest.xml file and add internet connect permission and writing to sdcard permission.

3 Kailash

Ravi Tamada Can you help me to complete my task..?? It has RSS feed data from a website. It has 55 items in it. Each item has an image url. Your task is to parse the xml file and extract the image url of each item. Download each image and write a single bitmap in to a cache file Name the cache file with the url of the image On the UI part, show a download button. On clicking it, downloads should begin. While downloads are in progress show an indeterminate progress bar. When downloads are complete show a "SHOW IMAGES" button. On clicking this button, display the downloaded images in a 'Grid Layout'. can you just mail me the code please kk.pawar98@gmail.com
