Question about plugging in an ajax progress bar component onto a black-box.
Hello,
I have the following problem: I want to integrate an ajax progress bar component to a j2ee application and I am in reference to the following pattern (https://bpcatalog.dev.java.net/nonav/ajax/progress-bar/design.html). It seems I need for the "task" component to return the percent. The problem I have is that I am calling a legacy method (i.e. as400) that does not return a percent as it is to me only a black-box. Here is a snippet of what it looks like to me:
AS400 sys =new AS400("AS400D.calyonfinancial.com");
sys.setUserId("jmartin");
sys.setPassword("jmartin");
CommandCall cmd =new CommandCall(sys);
cmd.run("my as400 command goes here");
AS400Message[] messageList = cmd.getMessageList();
for (AS400Message msg : messageList){
System.out.println(msg.getText());
}
sys.disconnectService(AS400.COMMAND);
At best I can know whether or not it is completed.
void actionCompleted(ActionCompletedEvent event)//Invoked when an action has completed.
What do you advise I do bearing in mind I want to avoid using an indeterminate progress bar?
Thanks in advance,
Julien Martin.
