Issue
I want to animate the progress bar so i am setting its progress using for loop but the loop is too much faster that i can't see the animation . I want the code to add a delay in the loop , i tried using thread delay but not working - here is the code
private fun showProgress() {
for(i in 0..100){
Thread{
binding.customProgressBar.progress=i
Thread.sleep(100)
}
}
}
Solution : Was not calling start method , but if there any other approach then please let me know
private fun showProgress() {
Thread {
for (i in 0..100) {
binding.customProgressBar.progress = i
Thread.sleep(100)
}
}.start()
}
now i want to terminate the thread when fragment is on pause state . how to achieve that ?
Solution
since you are using kotlin it is better to use coroutine, you can achieve your goal with something like this:
private suspend fun someProgress(scope: CoroutineScope) {
val job = scope.launch {
for (i in 0..100) {
binding.customProgress.progress = i
delay(100)
}
}
// use job.cancel() for cancelling the job or use job.join() for waiting for the job to finish
}
you can learn more about coroutine and how it works in here.
