progress bar in Vault client - help

[iqbal_lotey]

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
