Question

How do you implement Progress Download Dialog based on the codes below? My codes downloads images from a specific URL then it saves the image file into SD Card and set the image as wallpaper. I want to show a Progress Download Dialog when the user touches the options menu button setwallpaper().

public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
        switch (item.getItemId()) {
            case R.id.set_wallpaper:
                SetWallpaper(image_url);
                return true;
            default:
                return false;
        }
    }



public void SetWallpaper(String image_url)
        {   
        URL myFileUrl = null;
            try
        {   
                myFileUrl = new URL(image_url); 
        }
            catch (MalformedURLException e)
            {      
                e.printStackTrace();  
            }   
            Bitmap bmImg = null;
            try {  
                HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection) myFileUrl.openConnection();   
                conn.setDoInput(true);   
                conn.connect();     
                //int length = conn.getContentLength(); 
            InputStream is = conn.getInputStream();
            bmImg = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(is); 
            }
                catch (IOException e)
                {       
                    e.printStackTrace();  
                }   
        try {       

            String path = myFileUrl.getPath();
            String idStr = path.substring(path.lastIndexOf('/') + 1);
            File filepath = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
            File dir = new File (filepath.getAbsolutePath() + "/Wallpaper/");
                dir.mkdirs();
                String fileName = idStr;
                File file = new File(dir, fileName);
                FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(file);

                bmImg.compress(CompressFormat.JPEG, 75, fos);   
                fos.flush();    
                fos.close();       

                WallpaperManager wpm = WallpaperManager.getInstance(getBaseContext());
                wpm.setBitmap(bmImg);

        }
        catch (Exception e){


            e.printStackTrace();  
        }
        }

Answer 1

Here you can use the AsyncTask for the show the progressbar/dialogbox .

Show the progress bar visible inside the onPreExecute() method. And performs the image loading operations inside the doInBackground() method. Once this operation is done, we will make progress bar invisible and make imageview visible with that loaded image inside the onPostExecute() method.
