progress bar in Vault client - help

iqbal_lotey — Mon, 04 May 2015 19:55:05 GMT

Hi All,

I'm having no luck finding any documentation or examples on the Progress Bar that apparently is included in the Vault Developer Framework. Can anyone help me on this?

I am developing an addin to Vault 2014 Pro using VB.NET. I want to show the progress as my add-in processes the selected files. I can't be the first person who's wanted to do this.

I found Autodesk.DataManagement.Client.Framework.Forms.Interfaces.IProgressView in the Object Browser, but i don't know how to use it.

In the Vault SDK doc, there is mention of a GetProgressView method, but I can't figure out how to use it.

Any help or examples would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Iqbal

Hi Iqbal,

I believe the example on this DevBlog post will answer your question.

HI Wayne,

Thanks for the reply. I managed to get through my task by writing to and monitoring a log file. I will be sure to come back here and make sense of this example next time I need a progressbar

Thanks

Iqbal.
