In 3.2 I see the ComplexProgressIndicator.
Browsing for class references, I see (among others) a number of refs in
Project.
Looking at one of them, I see:
storeOnServerWithProgressInfo
ComplexProgressIndicator new
targetMorph: nil;
historyCategory: 'project storing';
withProgressDo: [self storeOnServerInnards]
Apparently, a block is being executed.
OK, let's look at storeOnServerInnards.
Hmm... we see that it signals ProgressNotification signals periodically:
ProgressNotification signal: '2:versionsDetected'.
OK, let's look at withProgressDo:. First, note that it only works in Morphic.
If you don't mind that, then we see that it uses the note string in the
exception to update its display.
So the answer (if you're using Morphic) is:
pass withProgressDo: a block that will signal ProgressNotifications.
If you're using MVC, look at String>>displayProgressAt:from:to:during:
I found this by looking through the Project loading code, and eventually
found PositionableStream>>fileInAnnouncing: which calls it (this is the
familiar progress bar that pops up during change set loading).
'Now here''s some Real Progress'
displayProgressAt: Sensor cursorPoint
from: 0 to: 10
during: [:bar |
1 to: 10 do: [:x | bar value: x.
(Delay forMilliseconds: 500) wait]].
